Bloehdian has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I simply want to check, whether a numeric value is between an upper and a lower limit using the following one liner:

perl -we 'use strict; my $value=1; my $lower_limit = 0; my $upper_limi +t = 2; if ( ( $value <= $upper_limit ) && ( $value => $lower_limit ) +) { print "the value is in the range!\n"}' Useless use of private variable in void context at -e line 1.

Currently it seems that I am kind of blind, since I cannot see what is wrong with the condition. I guess here is somebody out who has better eyes. ;-)
