To me .. This looks more like a line of perl code. I am familiar with the @ sign to kindly ask a function not to give any errors to a function. But can it really be used like this on vars? What would it suppress, the "notice: undefined variable $first on line 44" notification?
Probably
Funny..
Not really, considering those kinds of notices are what can prevent some hour-long headscratching trying to figure out why a piece of code isn't working when $name was typed as $names.
