JavaScript allows to omit semicolumn. Sorry, s/lumn/lon/. By the way, Perl also ignors semicolumn :-) -- Andrew Shitov __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.shitov.ru

Re[2]: explicit line termination with ;: why?

';' is not as simple as \n always means ;\n. In mentioned JavaScript language one can do this: script var x = 123 alert ( x ) /script and that will work! ;\n can almost always be converted into \n but not vice versa. -- Andrew Shitov __ [EMAIL

Re[2]: Whitespace

: so why not 'print($x)' == 'print ($x)' ;-) Plus we got rid of Perl-5's no-op unary +, so instead we're using whitespace to force it to be a list operator. Thanks! I've got the idea. I'd better refuse parenthesis than a space here. I think I'll never drop space in a function call if it can

Re[2]: Whitespace (Was: [RELEASE] Pugs 6.2.9 released!)

why do we have to give up a space when calling functions under Pugs? Not sure whether it's enough of an answer, but see: http://dev.perl.org/perl6/doc/design/syn/S04.html#Statement_parsing it says: if $term ($x) # syntax error (two terms in a row) if this cause an error, why not

Re: Whitespace

print (1+2)*3; can print 9, instead of 3. I'd prefer always have '3' (as a result of sum 1 + 2) here. A C-programmer would tread this like (print (1 + 2) * 3); # prints int, then returns void print (or do)? And is print .(1+2)*3 allowed? in fact, that is exactly

TTS BTW, you didn't mean originally: TTSsay zip (@odd), (@even); # prints 13572468 or 12345678? That is exactly like with similar printing result of sub() call: print sqrt (16), 5; # shout print 45. -- ___

Hi, I tried zip under pugs. my @odd = (1, 3, 5, 7); my @even = (2, 4, 6, 8); my @bothA = zip @odd, @even; print @bothA; This code prints 12345678 as expected. After parenthesis were used to group zip arguments, results changes to 13572468. Is it right? --
