Fair enough++, so you have my apologies if my tone sounded too arrogant. One important point about Perl 5 though, is that it does not have a real spec: it is defined by its own implementation. This is an inconvenience that the Perl 6 crowd are trying to correct. OTOH I'm quite sure that evaluation order is from left to right and was about to paste here the paragraph in perldoc perlsyn saying so. Unfortunately simple searches can't seem to find it and I don't know if it's there at all... and I don't know where else it may be.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
