$#="%c"; possible bugby ambrus (Abbot) |
on Feb 20, 2004 at 23:17 UTC ( [id://330691]=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) | Need Help?? |
ambrus has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question: I fount that the statement $#="%c"; has strange side effects on operations other than stringifying floating-points. For example Prints only a \0\n, while it should print 107\n. works correctly. Could someone tell me why is this, is this really a bug? This affects all versions of perl on my i686-linux system, that is 5.8.1, 5.8.0, 5.6.1, 5.00503.
