perlquestion mmartin Hello Monks,<br> <br> I had just a simple question about these "Test" Switches/Flags (*That's just what I've been calling them...).<br> I own the O'REILLY "Programming Perl" 3rd Edition Book. And I'm trying to find a list of switches/flags.<br> <br> I'm not looking for the Command Line Switches, which the book only seems to show in the index. But I'm<br> looking for the "switches" that you can use in, for example an if statement...<br> <br> <b>For Example:</b><br> <code> # Use "-e" to test is the file exists... MY_FILE="/home/my_filename.txt" if ( -e $MY_FILE ) { print "The File Exists\n\n"; } else { print "The File DOES NOT Exists\n\n"; } </code> <br> Do these "Test Switches" have a special name? And could anyone tell me of a good link where I could find these..?<br> <br> <br> Any thoughts would be great!<br> <br> Thanks in Advance,<br> Matt<br> <br>
