Brilliant. Simply brilliant.
This has propelled me into a flurry of thoughts about the things I can do with Perl. Higher Order indeed.
The code is here and there somewhat complicated but the added comments have clarified it somewhat and confirmed suspected code meanings.
It explains a way of using flexibility in your code - I'm not too good in explaining this I'm afraid. But it's one of those reads that make you 'get' things. At least for me.
I'm looking forward to the sequel - maybe a tutorial explaining callbacks, closures and factories? Or who knows, self-modifying code ;)

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
