Good practices that take more time:

  • Writing tests. Either after the code, or doing TDD.
  • Proper modularization of code. It's faster to just throw together procedural code than create a new module.
  • Documentation. Everything from proper comments to user docs takes time to write.
  • Quality assurance of third-party modules. Grabbing something off cpan and assuming it works is a lot faster (short-term) than testing it.

Those are what immediately come to mind. There are plenty more. As for your points: indentation takes no time so no excuses there but many times global variables can speed things up development (think instead of passing args and returning values from subs) this is however a very tricky process and rarely (but still sometimes) the best approach.

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.
