fglock has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
perldelta (5.6.1) says:
Infinity is now recognized as a number.I'd like to find out what it means, since it doesn't seem to work in Perl expressions like:
print 1 + Infinity; # prints "1"I also tried "Inf", "inf", "infinity", but nothing seems to work.
