James already made some good points on which I concur, especially adding
whitespace! I usually run unknown code through Perltidy which really
improves readability. James also mentioned nested subs. If you define
a sub inside of another sub it may appear that the sub is only visible
inside that sub however sub names are package variables and are visible
anywhere in the entire package. If you want a lexically scoped sub you
have to assign a sub reference to a lexically scoped scalar like:
my $sub_name = sub { do something };
