Re: Is this a bug in splice?

There is something weird going on. The use of @$, 0 seems to be implying the presence of a comma that isn't there:

push @$,0, 'fred';;
print @$,0;;
0 fred 0

print @$,;;
0 fred

Very strange!

You're assuming "`@$,`" means "`@{$,}`" but it apparently means "`@{$},`".	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Yup. I was. Nothing but perl can parse Perl. Not even the human brain. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
