You do realise that you aren't passing the array into modify()? You're passing a list. And that list is being aliased. And prior to the mostly pointless, blanket constanisation of the Perl sources, the (incorrect) attribution of a null C pointer to a scalar would not have been spuriously attributed to a "read-only value". Two mistakes collide here:
Upshot: p5p have buggered Perl5 in their attempts to 'be correct'. With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". I knew I was on the right track :)
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
