well traditionally I have "always" done them in the form
sub MySub {
my( $first, $second, @rest ) = @_;
...
}
and had not thought about the more 'c' code style
form of having a 'signature' in any way - but thought
it might be a better idea of have the signature???
One friend when I dug out some of our old stuff mentioned
that this was an 'old way' of doing it - almost on the
order of being 'deprecated' - so I thought I would check.
I clearly think that cracking out the use Benchmark
may be the best 'answer' for this problem...
