Re: Using dynamic operators in an if() statement

I think you're trying to remember,

my $operator = '> 98.0';
if ( eval $consumption . $operator ) { }
[download]

I think that absorbing the operator into a string to be eval'd doesn't get you anything you want. I'd prefer,

sub LIMIT () { 98.0 }
if ($consumption > LIMIT) { }

Shouldn't that be `if ( eval "\$consumption $operator" )` [download] I doubt the existance of a need to stringify and evaluate the contents of `$consumption`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
