It's pretty confusing, especially since BP uses prototypes during the example, which I'm told are bad? Never use them?
Prototypes in Perl are not the same as in C. Don't use them. Using them is an advance technique that changes the syntax of the language. You can program anything you want without ever using them. So don't use them (unless you really know want you're doing). Perl's second motto is: Simple things are simple, difficult things are possible. Prototypes fall into the second category.
