# ch-1.pl Perl Weekly Challenge 330 Task 1  Clear Digits
#=============================================================================
# You are given a string containing only lower case English letters and
# digits. Write a script to remove all digits by removing the first digit
# and the closest non-digit character to its left.
# Example 1 Input: $str = "cab12"
#           Output: "c"
#   Round 1: remove "1" then "b" => "ca2"
#   Round 2: remove "2" then "a" => "c"
# Example 2 Input: $str = "xy99"
#           Output: ""
# Example 3 Input: $str = "pa1erl"
#           Output: "perl"
#=============================================================================
