Hmmm...
:=, laziness, he is thinking big. I hope he thinks through
the consequences. Otherwise he may just find me submitting
a bug report about the following code:
$x := $y + 5;
$y := $x -3;
print "Answer: ($x, $y)\n";
Unless, of course, it works. In which case I shall probably
sacrifice burnt offerings at TheDamian's altar. (And then
try to break it with a non-linear system of equations.)
In a similar and more reasonable vein, I hope that his
thinking about laziness, :=, and slice mechanics goes far
enough that you can readily (for instance) define the
Fibonacci sequence as a lazy list and have it work right...

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.
