I'm surprised that bareword came up as most unpopular. I know for a fact that there are a million and two Perl programmers that use unquoted strings when it comes to hashes and lists. This makes me wonder if perhaps using => as a comma operator and unquoted hash keys are not generally considered barewords. Example follows of course.
#!perl -w
use strict;
my %en2fr = (
one => 'un',
two => 'deux',
three => 'trois'
);
# yes I realize there are better ways to grab the
# hash values, this is for demonstration only :)
print join(
', ', $en2fr{one}, $en2fr{two}, $en2fr{three}
), $/;

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).
