note
amir_e_a
<p>I avoid using $_ and default arguments even in the shortest programs, except when i have to (in <code>map</code>, for example) or in very particular idioms, such as</p>
<code>
for ($string) {
s/^\s+//;
s/\s+$//;
}
</code>
<p>(from perlfaq4.)</p>
<p>And i usually avoid postfix conditions.</p>
<p>But as everyone here says, it's a matter of taste.</p>
