talexb,
Golf Challenge: FizzBuzz may be of interest to you. Also, take a look at perlsyn. While there is an implicit break in every when clause, you can get around this by using an explicit continue. A few other notes, you could use feature qw/say switch/;. There is more discussion of perl 5.10 doodads at Bring Out Your New Perl Code. For example:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use 5.010;
use strict;
use warnings;
for (1 .. 105) {
my $what = '';
given ($_) {
when (not $_ % 3) { $what .= ' fizz'; continue }
when (not $_ % 5) { $what .= ' buzz'; continue }
when (not $_ % 7) { $what .= ' sausage' }
}
say "$_$what";
}

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).
