JD> Any reason to use named variables than to use the default variable ($_) ? yes, you can read the code and see what the variable is for. $_ is useful in some situations but not for foreach loops and similar things. names are important in code and $_ has no name. you lose the opportunity to tell the reader of the code what the variable contains and what it is used for. uri -- Uri Guttman ------ u...@stemsystems.com -------- http://www.sysarch.com -- ----- Perl Code Review , Architecture, Development, Training, Support ------ --------- Gourmet Hot Cocoa Mix ---- http://bestfriendscocoa.com --------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
