Well, look at it this way. By comparing $password with a number you are forcing it to evaluate to a numeric value. The numeric value of "123abc" is 123, which is greater than 16 so gives you an error. "abc123" evaluates to 0, which is less than 16, so no error. To prove this to yourself try: print "Numeric value of $password is " . 1 * $password .
