No they are
Hi Dan
Guessing:
Unless there is a fixed limit, which I don't think there is, I imagine
identifiers are held inside Perl as a C string, which is null-terminated and
therefore of any length supportable by the hardware. I doubt if it will
cause you problems. Is this of real concern to you? Are you
Anybody happen to know off the top of their head what the max length of characters is
that a hash's name can be?
EG ::
%123456789 = (); is a nine charcter name
%joe_mama_said_to_tell_you_hi = (); is a 28 character name
etc..
Thanks
Dan
