I opt for a style such as:
if (
A && # condition A
B && # condition B
C # condition C
) {
# do stuff
}
However, i really try to avoid these situations by relying
on hashes instead. In fact, i have been getting into the
habit of using this style for just about everything i do
in Perl. It's a derivative of how i code a sub:
sub foo {
# blah blah blah
}
Defining a hash:
my %hash = (
foo => 'bar',
baz => 'qux',
);
Defining an array with long elements:
my @array = qw(
foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo
barbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbarbar
);
A subroutine call:
print checkbox_group(
-name => 'words',
-values => [qw(eenie meenie minie moe)],
-defaults => [qw(eenie minie)],
);
The idea is to have each 'thing' on it's own line (with
trailing commas where applicable), and line up the closing
bracket or paren directly under what opened it.
