Is a complete solution in perl 5. There was once a reason back in the time of
grandfathered lan
I think in the more newer languages, they have implemented true
booleans. Perl is kind of old school. Pascal defines them as a
grandfather of languages. Therefore as one migrates the languages to a
higher levels (e.g. Perl[n]), they all will end up with a boolean data
type. Therefore, I think t

As both Java and _javascript_ both have a 'true' and 'false' or Boolean
data type, is there any interest in evolution of Perl to have a true
Boolean. Or what is the preferred method to do this in Perl. The "C"
programmers want me to use "0"'s and "1"'s.
