Hello all,
Hello,
I have seen in quite a few posts to the list from the non-beginners,
who I think all of us beginners appreciate them taking their time to
help us true beginners, make some references to the strict and
warnings pragmas. So I have a question about them. Some of the time
I see them say that the pragmas are good for developing
programs/scripts. The way it is worded some times it seems as if
after the program is written and in 'production' to take these lines
out of the code. Do they slow down how perl processes the programs?
Does it hurt to leave them in?
In general, pragmas only affect the compilation of your program with the exception of some warnings that happen during execution so there should be no slowdown. With that in mind, you could use the Benchmark module to verify the effects one way or the other. :-)
