Re^3: Scalar Vs. List context

Hmmm.

use strict;
use warnings;

sub foo {
  print "wantarray? ", wantarray?1:0, "\n";
  return wantarray? (1,2,3) : 's-s-sc-scalar';
}

my @x =('a','b', foo(), 'c');
print "\@x=(@x)\n";
[download]

prints

wantarray? 1
@x=(a b 1 2 3 c)

Looks like list context to me.

Best,beth

You only showed that it can be evaluated in list context. Why did you ignore my snippet which showed how it can be called in scalar and void context? `sub foo { print "wantarray? ", wantarray?1:0, "\n"; } my @x =(foo(),foo(), foo()); my $x =(foo(),foo(), foo());` [download] `wantarray? 1 wantarray? 1 wantarray? 1 wantarray? 0 wantarray? 0 wantarray? 0` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
