Indenting
Hi, I was looking at TPJ one-liners and saw this : #32A trick for indenting here strings ($definition = 'FINIS') =~ s/^\s+//gm; The five varieties of camelids are the familliar camel, his friends the llama and the alpaca, and the rather less well-known guanaco and vicuna. FINIS Courtesy of The Perl Cookbook It is very cool if we have a way to set this RegEx so that it executes in compile time I mean if we have the ability to set this, so that we have any funny formating we want w/o loosing the speed of parsing it at runtime... Or it works that way !! already.. cheers = iVAN [EMAIL PROTECTED] =
Re: Hyperoperators and RFC 207
Jeremy Howard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote .. Hyper-operators (i.e. element-wise array ops) and explicit array threading are not incompatible. In fact, I wrote RFC 82 (element-wise array ops) and was heavily involved in RFC 207 (Buddha Buck and I wrote most of RFCs 202-207 together, but we had to put one of our names on the individual RFCs). RFC 207 explicitly discusses the relationship with RFC 82. Well, maybe you are right. Even if array threading was a cleaner way than hyperoperators (which I believe it is), as long as RFC 202 gets into the language (I really hope so) and I can choose which way to go I am happy. The whole point was about economy of language constructs, but that's perl, and in perl free will is more important than economy, isn'it? --- Angel Faus [EMAIL PROTECTED] vLex.com "" Description: "" Description: "" Description: "" Description: "" Description: "" Description:
