dave_the_m I see the lowercase f there making me think floats, yikes. oh, its a flag :smile.

The automagic of Perl values is a great thing, which I value immensely. Please see Re^2: Can I access and use UV types from perl? for a substantial waffle regarding my deeper motives for this expiditionary embarkation.

On one level I want to be able to say I am adding natural numbers together and be speaking truthfully, rather than saying that, but actually what is happening is that I am adding a subset of integers together.

Looking at the output. There does seem to be some kind of interplay between the size of the storage unit and the kind of number that Perl assumes the user is wanting to use. That is interesting.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
