 I<n>-th subpattern, or undef if the subpattern did not match.
 
 Thus after a match against $_, $& coincides with C<substr $_, $-[0],
-$+[0] - $-[0]>.  Similarly, C<$>I<n> coincides with C<substr $_, $-[>I<n>C<],
-$+[>I<n>C<] - $-[>I<n>C<]> if C<$-[>I<n>C<]> is defined, and $+ coincides with
-C<substr $_, $-[$#-], $+[$#-]>.  One can use C<$#-> to find the last
+$+[0] - $-[0]>.  Similarly, $I<n> coincides with C<substr $_, $-[n],
+$+[n] - $-[n]> if C<$-[n]> is defined, and $+ coincides with
+C<substr $_, $-[$#-], $+[$#-] - $-[$#-]>.  One can use C<$#-> to find the last
 matched subgroup in the last successful match.  Contrast with
 C<$#+>, the number of subgroups in the regular expression.  Compare
 with C<@+>.
