in reply to What's your favourite non-word?

Outside of foo,bar and base I have a tendency to use obscene language (Especially when I'm frustrated with a problem). I'm trying to break this long ingrained habit for fear or it somehow not removing one and having it appearing on a user's screen.

    May I suggest weaning yourself off the hard stuff by using the methadone of bad language?, words like:
    • drat
    • blast (just like Obi-Wan!)
    • bother
    • darn
    I say, gosh, Great Scott, don't you know?

      I use three main sets interchangeably.

      @array1 = qw/foo goo moo loo hoo zoo/;
@array2 = qw/one two three four five/;
@array3 = qw/aye bee cee dee ee eff/;

      I always use @array3 when I am populating a random hash, i.e.

      </code>
$hash'A' = 'aye';
$hash'B' = 'bee';
</code>
      and so on.
