in thread Why is Dumper returning "!!1" for true file test?

In the case of !!1 it seems to only be just a performance thing, because all values are just 1 , i.e. any later casting would produce the same effect/caching of types.

I was confused because prior to this I only heard of !!0 as dualvar and I'm kinda sure I read it in the perldocs.

In the case of `!!1` it seems to only be just a performance thing I think so. It is slightly different — I can get pPOK+pIOK+pNOK, but I can't also get IOK+NOK+POK — so there could be difference, but I don't know of any.	[reply] [d/l]
