Re: Common uses of "use"

strict and warnings were pretty much my mainstay since Perl5 was introduced.

use feature got a bit of look in while on 5.10 but I didn't use that for very long.

use 5.12.x has an an implicit use strict (actually, any version > 5.11) and includes all the features so now I just use:

use 5.12.0;
use warnings;

strict and warnings were pretty much my mainstay since Perl5 was introduced. Hard for that to actually have been the case since warnings.pm wasn't invented until Perl 5.006. - tye	[reply]

I have been adding `use warnings;` to the top of my code as a standard practice for about a decade. My post was not intended as some sort of definitive historical commentary. To head off any similar comments regarding the `strict` pragma: perlhist shows the first Perl5 as 5.000alpha1 1993-Jul-31. I make no claims that I used that specific version nor that the `strict` pragma was available in that version. I'm reasonably certain that "`use`" was introduced in a Perl5 version so I wouldn't have "`use`"d anything in any Perl version prior to that. -- Ken	[reply] [d/l] [select]
