Being a new boy to Perl I find I come across plenty of code
that is so compact it is on the whole unreadable and therefore
un maintainable. I know some of the people on this site do this
as a purely accademic exercise, but I have seen to many people doing
this for real
Cramming lots of characters on 1 line does not mean things will compile better I have also seen people doing horrors like putting if statements after the code to be excuted . WHY Here another if(!$#var) .Yes Ok I know what it does but why do it .. I don't want a headace everytime I read a piece of source code. Perl is a high flexible language that seems open to abuse by those who thinks its clever to write unreadable code. Perl is a great tool so why missuse it? For those who think themselves clever try reading this. ienjoygivingpeopleheadacesbywritinggarbageso$@%#$toyou! Edit by tye In reply to Perverse Unreadable Code by Anonymous Monk
