Why is that? :) I was actually going to post a question about ambiguity syntax later, but here it is anyway. Are the following 4 equivalent? 1) if ($b) { $a = $b; } else { $a = $c; } 2) $a = $b or $c; 3) $a = $b || $c; 4) $a = $b ? $b : $c; Also there was an example on the web that completely threw me off. Although this works: local ($/); ,I have no idea how it undefs $/. Points to a good reading on the subject are equally appreciated.
