Re: Using Safe to reval complex math

Safe::permit takes an Opcode, and "sqrt" is part of the :base_math category, so double check that you're calling the version you think you are. Also try checking the value of $@ after the call to reval.

Thanks for the feedback. I am actually checking $@, just not in the snippet. That is how i caught the above griping about `Can't locate object method "make"`. In different permutations of things I have tried, I have had it using the base sqrt as well as the Math::Complex::sqrt. It is easy to tell the difference, because base sqrt will return something like `Can't take sqrt of -4` whereas Math::Complex will give you 2i --Anonymous Original Poster Monk	[reply] [d/l] [select]
