If these pragmas are as important as they are, why is it that they aren't turned on in Perl by

For backward compatibility. Yeah, it makes no sense with 5.16 coming out but there it is.

BTW,it's:

no strict;
no warnings;

See `perldoc -f no`

Confusion is the first step of understanding.

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.

The secret to great software:  Fail early & often.

Eliminate software piracy:  use only FLOSS.
