What's the difference between /^Foo/s and /^Foo/?
What's the difference between /^Foo/s and /^Foo/? The second would match Foo other than at the start of the record if $* were set. The deprecated $* flag does double duty, filling the roles of both /s and /m. By using /s, you suppress any settings of that spooky variable, and force your carets and d... 2013-09-12, 2500👍, 0💬

What value is returned by a lone `return;' statement?
What value is returned by a lone `return;' statement? The undefined value in scalar context, and the empty list value () in list context. This way functions that wish to return failure can just use a simple return without worrying about the context in which they were called. 2013-09-11, 2571👍, 0💬

What does `new $cur->{LINK}' do? (Assume the current package has no new() function of its own.) $cur-&gt;new()-&gt;{LI NK}The indirect object syntax only has a single token lookahead.

Why does Perl not have overloaded functions?
Why does Perl not have overloaded functions? 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 argume... 2013-09-06, 2497👍, 0💬

What does `$result = f() .. g()' really return?
What does `$result = f() .. g()' really return? False so long as f() returns false, after which it returns true until g() returns true, and then starts the cycle again. This is scalar not list context, so we have the bistable flip-flop range operator famous in parsing of mail messages, as in `$in_bo... 2013-09-06, 2298👍, 0💬

Why is it hard to call this function: sub y { "because" }
Why is it hard to call this function: sub y { "because" } Because y is a kind of quoting operator. The y/// operator is the sed-savvy synonym for tr///. That means y(3) would be like tr(), which would be looking for a second string, as in tr/a-z/A-Z/, tr(a-z)(A-Z), or tr[a-z][A-Z]. 2013-09-05, 2017👍, 0💬

How do I send e-mail from a Perl/CGI program on a Unix system? Sending e-mail from a Perl/CGI program on a Unix computer system is usually pretty simple.

How do you print out the next line from a filehandle with all its bytes reversed? print scalar reverse scalar &lt;FH&gt; Surprisingly enough, you have to put both the reverse and the &lt;FH&gt; into scalar context separately for this to work. 2013-09-04, 2285👍, 0💬

What does Perl do if you try to exploit the execve(2) race involving setuid scripts? Sends mail to root and exits.

Why aren't Perl's patterns regular expressions?
Why aren't Perl's patterns regular expressions? Because Perl patterns have backreferences. A regular expression by definition must be able to determine the next state in the finite automaton without requiring any extra memory to keep around previous state.
