in reply to variable has numeric value?

If the "perlfaq" context suggests this was supposedto illusatrate how to determine the characteristics of a possible numeric var, FILE A BUG REPORT!

BUT, are you sure that's what intended? Can you provide a link to that section of the faq?

Questions containing the words "doesn't work (or their moral equivalent) unless accompanied by:
  1. code
  2. verbatim error and/or warning messages
  3. a coherent explanation of what "doesn't work actually means

... will usually get a downvote from me.

    If the "perlfaq" ... FILE A BUG REPORT!...

    Or update your perlfaq and see what the latest says before deciding to file a report :)
