uksza has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Wise Monks,

Is it good way? 
$test = 7;
#(OK only when $test is 7,5 or 3)

#OK, but... long
print "OK\n" if ($test == 7 or $test == 5 or $test == 3);

#NOT OK
#print "OK\n" if ($test == (7 or 5 or 3));

#OK?
print "OK\n" if ($test =~ /[753]/);

[download]
Last try is good? Rather not (what about 55, 33 etc?)
Is any good (not switch/case) method to test it?

Thanx a lot
uksza
