What do you do at the end of a sub?
sub Hello
{
"I am a sub";
}
I hate that. Nothing particularly wrong with it, it's valid perl, except that I hate it. The following is more to my liking
sub Hello
{
return "No! *I* am a sub.";
}
Hashkeys are a little more forgiving, because how often are you really going to have s p a c e s =>in between, or some such nonsense like others have pointed out, but as with my example above, I'll take being explicit any time over being implicit. I also like to do the following (mainly for visual effect):
$fooBar->Fooz( 'abc' => 1,
'aa0ec' => 221,
'abae' => 12,
'aecadf' => 145,
,)->pack( 'ab' => 11,
'cd' => 22,
,);

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.
