If one or two of these operations are not overloaded, the remaining ones can
be used instead. C<bool> is used in the flow control operators
-(like C<while>) and for the ternary "C<?:>" operation. These functions can
+(like C<while>) and for the ternary C<?:> operation. These functions can
return any arbitrary Perl value. If the corresponding operation for this value
is overloaded too, that operation will be called again with this value.
End of Patch.
