The approach I would have taken:


The hypothesis is

Perl cannot be parsed

which is to say

There exists a program for which two instance of the Perl parser produce different output

which is true if

There exists a function call in a program for which two instance of the Perl parser have different prototypes for the named function.

This is actually very simple to prove by example.

However, you tried to prove this by counter-proof. That means you need to disprove the counter-hypothesis

For every function call in every program, every instance of the Perl parser will have the same prototype for the named function.

No problem there either. This can be disprove with the same example.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
