Yes, I use the 2 == $var syntax. And yes, I have caught several typos over the years by doing so. YMMV.

As for how common the error is, my experience suggests that we tend to not have a good sense of the errors we make. A useful, painful, and humbling experience is to keep a log of every error of yours that you catch. Categorize them, then go back periodically to review them and think about how you could have prevented them up front.

Odds are that you will find you make a lot more mistakes than you think you do. And they will be of different kinds than you think. (Me, I make more "careless, stupid" errors than I care to admit.)

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.
