Re: leading and trailing spaces

[Scott K Purcell]

My preferred method of removing either leading or trailing white space for 
efficiency is like this:

my $fish
for ($fish) {
    s/^\s+//; s/\s+$//;
}

# if you have two vars 
for ($fish, $mamal) {
    s/^\s+//; s/\s+$//;
}

just my two cents.
See the perlsyn manpage for additional info.
