No. According to perlop, `eq` has a higher precedence than `\|\|` and `or`, so, in this case, either one will do the same thing. I tend to use `\|\|` for logical tests (`X \|\| Y`) and `or` for flow control (`STMT or die...`). Update: clarified word choice a bit. --MidLifeXis	[reply] [d/l] [select]

probably because you used \|\| instead of or its (...) \|\| (...) ... or ... or ... or ... As already pointed out by others, it should really be a logical and, not a logical or.	[reply]
