( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I actually started using Perl::Critic lo these many moons ago when the current Perl was 5.8, because of my $var = "foo" if 'some condition'. My experience was that usually it behaved the way you would expect ($var was undefined if the condition was false). But sometimes it retained whatever the previously-assigned value was.

In general, my feeling about Perl::Critic is that if it flags something, it means someone, somewhere, under some circumstances had trouble with that construct. Maybe those circumstances do not apply to you, and you should not feel guilty about disabling a policy, but you should think first, both about what the policy does in general and whether it applies in your case.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
