in thread false warning: print (...) interpreted as function

Your suggestions are wrong. 

$ perl -wle'print ((1))'
print (...) interpreted as function at -e line 1.

Because I don't know what do three points ('...') mean and am thinking that a warning is unnecessary.

Ellipses are extremely commonly used in CS as a generic placeholder.

and am thinking that a warning is unnecessary.

The warning was indeed spurious in this case. It's there to catch the following error: 

print (4+3)*2;   # Expected to print 14, but prints 7

    Hello ikegami,

    Interestingly, this particular warning goes away if the print command is terminated by a semicolon:

    15:54 >perl -wle "print ((1))"
print (...) interpreted as function at -e line 1.
1

15:54 >perl -wle "print ((1));"
1

    I get the same behaviour on my various Strawberry Perls, which range from 5.14.4 to 5.22.0.

    Seems to be another (strange) heuristic employed by the warnings pragma.

    Update: Changed wording of first paragraph (underlined words) to clarify that my comment applies only to cases like ikegami’s example, in which “the statement completed by the semicolon is a complete and unambiguously correct print statement” (BrowserUk, below). See also my earlier post: Re^3: false warning: print (...) interpreted as function.

      Only if the statement completed by the semicolon is a complete and unambiguously correct print statement:

      print ((1)), 1;;
print (...) interpreted as function at
