Why does Perl not have overloaded functions?
Why does Perl not have overloaded functions?
✍: Guest
Because you can inspect the argument count,
return context, and object types all by yourself.
In Perl, the number of arguments is trivially available
to a function via the scalar sense of @_, the return
context via wantarray(), and the types of the
arguments via ref() if they're references and
simple pattern matching like /^\d+$/ otherwise.
In languages like C++ where you can't do this, you
simply must resort to overloading of functions.
