Re^6: sprintf is printing unexepected output by jettero (Monsignor) on Dec 31, 2006 at 03:41 UTC
I was curious enough to try it... `# perl -MData::Dump=dump -e '$h = {lol=>2}; $h->{lol2} = $h; print dum +p($h), "\n"' do { my $a = { lol => 2, lol2 => 'fix' }; $a->{lol2} = $a; $a; }` [download] That really is pretty slick looking compared to Data::Dumper. I'm not going to switch or anything, but you can't deny the output looks cooler. Less efficient maybe, but cooler... -Paul	[reply] [d/l]

I meant you have those ugly `$VARn` variables by default and possibly a series of statements as output which may not be used like this: `$var = [% dumper_output %];` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
