Subject: RE: [boulder.pm] activity on this list


: This has been a lot of help to me personally so far, both
: Wayde's brief on typical activity on this kind of mailing list
: and everyone's comments on Perl and life and what they're
: hoping for.  I hope everyone else continues to send in a note to
: this thread to help us figure things out.
: 
: I'm fighting a cold right now, but next week I think I'll look
: at all the comments on time and day, and come up with a meeting
: date (and place).
: 
: 
: And now for something completely Perl:
: 
: When Perl style comes up, it usually is quickly apparent how
: many ways Perl lets you hang yourself^W^Wdo things.
: 
: Here's a simple program that waffles on output:
: 
:     #!/usr/bin/perl -w
: 
:     use strict;
: 
:     my @opinions = ( "yes", "no" );
:     my $baz = $opinions[ rand @opinions ];
: 
:     if ( $baz eq "yes" ) {
:         print "foo\n";
:     } else {
:         print "bar\n";
:     }
: 
: I'm wondering how many reasonably different ways the logic expressed in
: the if/else code could have been written.
: 
:     $baz eq "yes" ? print "foo\n" : print "bar\n";
: 
: Any others?
