You know, I've found this to be the case too. I'm glad someone could actually put those thoughts into words for me. Especially things like temporary variables simply piss me off :) Too bad sometimes I just can't avoid them (like copying a referent into another reference to make sure whoever called the function doesn't delete a hash key on me or something - a bug like that bit me hard once).

For the record, I haven't read the articles you linked to yet, just commenting on the idea you mention. I will check them out, and thanks for the heads up.

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.
