Baby Perl usually doesn't attempt to use the Perl5 object model at all, even when it would be a good way to solve the problem at hand.

What's the Perl5 object model? I don't really think this applies in any case. OOP can be "baby" or "bad" in the same way that structured programming can be. Whether it is used to solve a problem has nothing to do with whether the code is good or bad, baby or fluent.

They are short.
They are simple.
Each one is on its own line.

Those three might just as well be a hallmark of good Perl.

Baby Perl may leave out comments it should include, or include comments that are needless, especially ones that duplicate the language documentation, e.g., telling what a builtin does.

Maybe "baby" is the reason but "bad" is the result.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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.
