I can agree with that. Especially since i said for pure-OO exploration, Perl5 native OO was a poor choice, and the right language was SmallTalk :-) For Perl native use where speed matters, an array of structs with next_index, prev_index attributes is probably optimal. That's a Linked List with a harsh Fortran accent - been there, done that, in Fortran - hardly elegant OO as requested. -- Bill Ricker [email protected] https://www.linkedin.com/in/n1vux _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
