in reply to Re^13: Order of evaluation/interpolation of references
in thread Order of evaluation/interpolation of references

The curse of the trivial example. Would you agree that first is a lot easier on the eyes than the latter two?:

print "And the set contains [ { sort @a } ]\n";; And the set contains [ brown dog fox jumps lazy over quick the the ] printf "And the set contains [ %s ]\n", join ' ', sort @a;; And the set contains [ brown dog fox jumps lazy over quick the the ] print "And the set contains [ ", join( ' ', sort @a ), " ]\n";; And the set contains [ brown dog fox jumps lazy over quick the the ]

Even with the complication of the p5 syntax, it's still nicer to my eyes:

print "And the set contains [ @{[ sort @a ]} ]\n";; And the set contains [ brown dog fox jumps lazy over quick the the ]

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

The start of some sanity?
