(jeffa) Re: Shift versus Sanity

I concur with Juerd. Sometimes i will obfuscate, but only if it is for me and me only.

How many times have you been bitten with this:

sub foo {
   my $foo = shift;
}

# and then you decide to add another parameter:
sub foo {
   my ($foo,$bar) = shift;
}

I find it better to always use @_ to prevent those annoying mistakes:

sub foo {
   my ($foo) = @_;
}
