regex in an 'if' statement

[AMiSM]

Greetings!

Does anybody know how to use a regular expression in the eval portion of an 'if' statement? This doesn't work:

if ( $text[$z] ne m/\231/g ) {
$output = "$output $text[$z]";
}

I'm trying to execute code if the string does NOT contain ASCII #231.

if ( $text[$z] ne m/\231/g ) {

should be like this:

if ( $text[$z] !~ m/\231/g ) {
