1) You can use Constants:- use constant BUFFER_SIZE => 4096; use constant ONE_YEAR => 365.2425 * 24 * 60 * 60; use constant PI => 4 * atan2 1, 1; use constant DEBUGGING => 0; use constant ORACLE => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; use constant USERNAME => scalar getpwuid($<); use constant USERINFO => getpwuid($<);
2) You can write your own private module, which defines such things.
