concider:
if(not ($foo == 1) ) { print "foo" }
it prints 'foo' just as expected... one can use 'not' without too many worries...
just remember 2 things:
! has higher precedence (ie, it 'binds tighter') so parentheses would be required
if you use ! here instead of 'not'
further more, ! is a unary operator used in combination with others as well ( !~
!= and friends). Here you CAN NOT just use 'not~' or 'not= '
hope this clears things up,
