Hey brethren,
Long time, no speak ... I've been away on Python (;-(() & Ruby (:-))) sabbaticals. Anyways, my question is, I think, a simple one - why does running the command perl -e 'print \&stat, \&CORE::stat; package CORE; print \&stat' return CODE(0x563599d2b1e0)CODE(0x563599d547d0)CODE(0x563599d547d0) i.e. given that stat() is ostensibly a part of the CORE package (as partially shown above), what are the/any sound reason(s) for the differences between them (\&stat & \&CORE::stat) (using perl 5.26.1 on Ubuntu 18.04) ?? Many thanx in advance for your insights. Very many thanx for your replies - so the upshot is RTFM (but more closely).
A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))
