I think the lowercase "and" basically makes it act more like this: $csv and ($xls = $csv)

Correct. Deparsing makes it even clearer:

12:28 >perl -MO=Deparse -e "$csv and $xls = $csv;"
$xls = $csv if $csv;
-e syntax OK

Hope that helps,

    Damn, that's crazy. Never knew about that.

    $PM = "Perl Monk's";
    $MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest Vicar";
    $nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;
