in thread C-style for loop

@cnn: your solution is almost the shortest (well,you can abbreviate foreach with for ; ). And I prefere this one!

But the OP wants to conform to the styleguides of PBP & Perl Critics, and postfix-loops are disadviced!

If I was in this situation, I would prefere

_clean_param($_) for @values;
with the routine transforming $_[0] directly, (it's an alias)

UPDATE: or

_clean_params(@values); # sub takes arr_ref by prototype

Cheers LanX

    PBP advises against a lot of useful things. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't use them. It means that you shouldn't use them without a little bit of thought. In the right place, a C-style for loop is Just Fine. In the right place, a "postfix-loop" is Just Fine.

      You missunderstood me, it's the OP who cares about the defaults of Perl::Critics, not me! 8 )

      UPDATE: Hmm, I think my position was already quite clear, did you read the whole thread or is PBP just your equivalent to Pawlows bell? (SCNR ; )
