It looks to me like the thing most of the people you are complaining about forget to always use strictures (use strict; use warnings; - see The strictures, according to Seuss).

They should also learn not to use $a and $b in general use ($foo and $bar are good for example code).

Learning to use the three parameter form of open, lexical variables for file handles and checking the result of the open would seem to be a higher level of sophistication. However using comprehensible and consistent indentation should be attainable for them, even if just by using Perl tidy.


Perl's payment curve coincides with its learning curve.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
