Re^2: Bless and Do on the outside

If you really want to use a do, you could also

my $variable = do {
    my $x = 49;
    bless \$x, 'Rates::Notification';
};
[download]

which I think scans better.

Yes, do on the outside always scans better, its like creating a sub and calling it immediately, (sub { ... })->(); except prettier :)

To avoid misunderstandings: It's similar but not identical! "Like" means "similar" I think dictionary can agree! Like with map and grep is the block following do is not an anonymous sub! Of course we're discussing looks!	[reply]
