in reply to Re^2: Rosetta Code Error or $n // 100
in thread Rosetta Code Error or $n // 100

No. || and // are two distinct operators. The first one checks whether its first argument is true, the second one whether it's defined; if not, they return the second argument. The difference becomes apparent with defined false values like 0:
choroba@still ~ $ perl -wE 'say 0 || 1' 1 choroba@still ~ $ perl -wE 'say 0 // 1' 0

map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
