> open (MYFILE, ">>file_to_append_to.txt") or die "Can't open $!\n"; > Strange ! I sees the above openings in almost every script. What I could not understand is the reason for putting the die statement when the above statement will never "die". If the file is not there, it will create the file. Is there a legitamate reason.
