Re^2: Readonly oddity

I don't agree with this advice either. I personally don't like constant because it is not suitable for any complex structures and you can't interpolate those constants in strings. Neither I like Readonly because you have to type "Readonly", which is quite a lot and the capital 'R' makes it simply unbearable. So I use Const::Fast.

The documentation for constant explains this. "For example?" The NOTES section of that documentation has an example. — Ken	[reply]

You mean the array reference example? It only says that you can change the values, not that it's "not suitable." It's quite suitable, I use it all the time.	[reply]
