If there are some things to compare with for equality,
it's sometime also a good idea to use a hash for a direct lookup:
my %valid_value = map {$_ => 1} (qw/b c d));
if ($valid_value{$a}) {
...
}
If time doesn't play any role, but nice code does,
there's also the
use Quantum::Superpositions;
if ($a == any(qw/b c d)) {
...
}
way.
