Re^2: Organizing your program with subroutines -- ellipsis statement

you asked for wisdom and you got it back! ++roboticus for his tutorial/manual.

Just a minor addition: ellipsis statement described in perlsyn does exactly what sub sub_name { die "NYI" } does: sub sub_name{...} dies with Unimplemented at .. if sub_name is called within the program.

It is easy to remember and to spot and also saves some keystroke!

My warmest welcome to the monastery and to the wonderful world of Perl!

PS for sake of indentation perltidy program which comes within Perl::Tidy module can change your old dinosaur into a cute hamster (incidentally: Perl is taught in university? cool..)!

There are no rules, there are no thumbs..
Reinvent the wheel, then learn The Wheel; may be one day you reinvent one of THE WHEELS.
