Smile Perl RE question

Hey just a quick one this time!

In Perl the regular expression
Code:
/\d+/
would that reconise a decimal point? So something like 233.5698? If it doesn't should I do
Code:
/\d+\.\d+/

Cheers,

PB

Sure, if it always has a decimal point with digits on both sides, with no negative signs or stuff like that.
