give our code is:
for (chomp(<>)) { print }
I'm finding this use of void context confusing.
Normaly I would take that to mean that the caller has provided a context for
the call, however this is obvously not the case here. I beleive that for()
calls chomp in array context.
Even if I had used while() as my example, chomp would have had a calling
context.
Would someone be kind enought to explain 'void context' as used above?
