a) I think we all 'preach' to the unwashed masses in the background...
b) This SERIOUSLY WORRIES ME:
my $weirdWord = '12a34b56b78aCADaPatonb japhyb234';
my @words = split 'a|b' , $weirdWord;
print "we have:$_:\n" for @words;
I just do NOT know right off the top of my head, when,
where or HOW I would use that type of a conditional in a split...
{ Ok, I'm not sure if the fact that it did what I expected, based
upon the kvetchings between you two, or that I coded it to prove it
worries me more.... }
c) I'm not sure I want to know about
s'$%@|'replacement';
d) I think half the fun of the game so far has been watching
the competing arguments propose more detailed insight....
ciao
