of same.
We can give it a start and soon we will reach the end also...;-)

writing readable Perl

2001-06-26 Thread Gregg Williams

The recent "Re: print FN 'junk\n' " thread makes this an ideal time for me
to write this e-mail. I intend this e-mail for the more knowledgeable
programmers who are reading this mailing list.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] <--

I am a Perl semi-nubie who has, over the years, been mystified by various
pieces of Perl code. I am pleased by the interest in the learn.perl.org site
and [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list, and I'm interested in in writing some
kind of article for the Perl community advocating a common sense approach to
writing Perl code and that can be read (by you and others) easily in the
future.

I have begun collecting examples of code that I feel are needlessly
complicated or obscure and invite you to send me things that you think are
examples of this sort of thing. I will (eventually) try to write something
up of benefit to the Perl community. Thanks.
