Also somewhere in the documentation is noted that == is much cheaper than eq, so you may wanna use == whenever it makes sense.
UPDATE: i guess there is some misunderstanding here. My line above saying "so you may wanna use == whenever it makes sense" must be read as "please use == when comparing something that should be a number, because using eq to compare two numbers is much less efficient". On the other side using == to compare two strings is less likely to give the result you want, so i didn't consider that case. Hope now it's clear.

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.
