I definitely avoid $$hRef{key} and
$$aRef[0] (using $hRef->{key}
instead). But I don't really like @{...} much (too hard to
match up the open and close braces) so I prefer
@$aRef and %$hRef to the versions
with {}. For @{$aRefs{key}} I have no
choice.
But when (and if) a version of Perl comes out with "the
patch" applied, I'll be switching to nearly exclusively
using -> to deference. This patch allows
$aRef->@, $hRef->%,
$aRef->@[1..5], etc. which are particularly
nice for cases like
$aRefs->{key}->[0]->getList()->@[2..6].

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).
