Win8 Strawberry 5.8.9.5 (32) Thu 06/10/2021 9:48:30
C:\@Work\Perl\monks
>perl -Mstrict -Mwarnings
use Data::Dump qw(dd);
use constant APPLE => 1;
my %heesh = (APPLE => => 'red');
dd \%heesh;
my %hash = (APPLE , => 'red');
dd \%hash;
^Z
{ APPLE => "red" }
{ 1 => "red" }

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
