Re^2: XUL::Gui and Loop structure

Why the C-style for loop? More Perlish to use the '..' operator.

#!/usr/bin/perl
use XUL::Gui;
$moreThanOne=5;

sub build_list  {
        my $howmany = shift;
        my @list = ();
        push @list, Label(value=>$_) for 0 .. $howmany;
        return @list;
}
@pacientes = build_list $moreThanOne;
display Window title => "Pacientes", width => 640, height => 480, Grou
+pBox (@pacientes);

If you want to be more Perlish, drop the @list. `sub build_list { my $max = shift(); return map Label(value=>$_), 0..$max; }` [download] The name $howmany was misleading, you were generating more items than that as you were stargin with zero. And now there's little reason to keep on using a subroutine. Jenda Enoch was right! Enjoy the last years of Rome.	[reply] [d/l]

"$howmany" can mean "how many pieces", but I understood it as "the value that lets you know how many (but not the answer itself)" :)	[reply]
