Yeah... I've come across one before. I'll take this
oppertunity to gently remind you to search the manuals:
perldoc perlop
you'll find it under the section "Exponentiation", and
you can get an overview of the manuals by:
perldoc perl
under most operating systems (not Windows), you can
search using /keyword so, if I was looking for this
I'd use:
perldoc perlop
/expon
fast and easy - easier in fact than writing an email.
Take care,
Jonathan Paton
