Hi,
Yes, they are the same.
I like to use $_ only when the data comes in $_ naturally. Like in a for loop:
for (qw< abc >)
{
if ( !/\w+\d+/ )
{
print "not matched";
}
}
Otherwise, I have to write $_, then I prefer to name the variable something
descriptive instead.
Makes the code more readable and maintainable down the road.
