No, you can call (or use the constant) it without full qualifying it doens't
mean the function or the constant is in your namespace. as you said below,
Perl has way of finding it from the Exporter interf
oops, left off a ; and a 1;

Huh? I thought constants were implemented as functions? In other words, HI
and HI() should both refer to the same entity.

no. sorry! :-(
in that case, Perl probably thinks that you want to call the function HI and
than print whatever that function return to STDOUT.
no such HI function so Perl will panic! :-)

Ah, then what about
print HI, "\n";
the comma should disambiguate from a filehandle, right?

the statement:
print HI;
won't work. it's:
print Test::HI,"\n";
that i have in the code. Otherwise, Perl thinks that you want to print $_ to
the HI file ha
Will print HI; not work...you would think you wouldn't have to qualify it if
you import it into your namespace?

name the following Test.pm:

use strict;
package Test;
use Exporter;
our @EXPORT_OK = qw(HI);
use constant HI => 'Hi
