Re^5: Can I access and use UV types from perl?

The main sense I am getting from this, is that Perl is all about the storage.

My sense is that Perl is all about the DWIM. What I haven't seen so far (and apologies if I've missed it) is where your problem lies. Here's a simple example:

#!/usr/bin/env perl 
use strict;
use warnings;

use Test::More tests => 1;

my $x = 3;
my $y = 2;
is $x + $y, 5, 'Yes, your integers behave exactly as expected';

What else do you expect to happen?

well, and this may a little bit controversial, but... `#!perl use strict; use warnings; use Test::More tests => 1; my $x = 5; my $y = 3; is $x / $y, undef, 'Yes, your integers behave exactly as expected'; =head1 output 1..1 not ok 1 - yes your integers behave as expected # Failed test 'yes your integers behave as expected' # at -e line 1. # got: '1.66666666666667' # expected: undef # Looks like you failed 1 test of 1. =cut` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

This is what I would tend to expect (using integer): `c:\@Work\Perl\monks>perl -le "use strict; use warnings; ;; use integer; ;; use Test::More tests => 2; ;; my $x = 5; my $y = 3; ;; is $x / $y, 1, qq{$x / $y == 1 is expected}; is $y / $x, 0, qq{$y / $x == 0 is expected}; " 1..2 ok 1 - 5 / 3 == 1 is expected ok 2 - 3 / 5 == 0 is expected` [download] Give a man a fish: `<%-{-{-{-<`	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You got me here, the documentation for the pragma does describe that expected behaviour.	[reply]
