Hi pholks, It's taken me a while to wrap my head around references, since I thought they were always Perl-specific. (At least, the term 'reference' doesn't show up in K&R!)
Anyway, it finally occurred to me that the term 'reference' might just be Perlish for what other languages (C, I'm thinking) call a 'pointer'... Am I totally out of wack? Is the distinction in the docs somewhere that I could read about a bit? -Patrick ...... fieldmethods.net: All the news that's fit to parse: Human Language Technology __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
