Interpolation Traps
Perl4-to-Perl5 traps having to do with how things get
interpolated within certain expressions, statements, con
texts, or whatever.
· Interpolation
@ now always interpolates an array in double-quotish
strings.
print "To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\n";
# perl4 prints: To:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
# perl5 errors : In string, @somewhere now must be written as
\@somewhere
