[FWP] duh: A small puzzler

People asked for simpler puzzles; here's a small one. Perl gurus 
can't play (or play quietly while the more lurkers consider :-)

I did this today; I wasn't thinking... (well, it's Friday after all)

   # records look like
   # >12|c2169.2750 CHROMAT_FILE: 12=c2169.2750 PHD_FILE: ...
   #
   # I want to get just the c2169.2750 part

   ($id) = split(/\s+/, $record);

   $id =~ s/^.*|//;    # remove extraneous stuff before the construct info


what's wrong? :-}
