How to escape parenthesis in Perl Regular Expressions?
<p>If I have a string such as:</p>

<pre><code> JOURNAL   Yeast 10 (11), 1503-1509 (1994)
</code></pre>

<p>How do I get the two numbers in the parenthesis( 11 and 1994) ? One way I attempted was using:</p>

<pre><code>/\s+JOURNAL\s+.*\((\d+).*\((\d+))/
</code></pre>

<p>but this doesn't work. So my two questions:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>How to escape the parenthesis so I can use match them in the RE ?</p></li>
<li><p>How to get the above two numbers ?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>I am doing this in Perl. Thanks for any help !</p>
