This is not technically correct, I was trying to simplify the issue to some helpful practice or rule of thumb. There are lhs lists that look like parentheses create them, the function rule can come into play, and an operator can have particular parsing rules. The ' $val = () = X' construct is the analog to '@val = scalar X', but less often necessary; which helps support the 'list context as the default' simplification. Be well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Ledger-smb-devel mailing list Ledger-smb-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ledger-smb-devel
