I didn't realize that extreme programming and Perl were mutually exclusive.

Did I say so? I was merely hinting at PerlMonks not being wikipedia or an eplain-me-the-world site - and saying that I find asking arbitrary questions (of the kind the OP and my reply are) not appropriate for PerlMonks - even if they carry the terms "scope" and "programming", or even "extreme programming". I did that in a somewhat terse way, but no flame was intended.

Of course extreme programming "is an interesting and useful subject to be discussed at a site meant to be useful to Perl programmers" - but the OP didn't do that, there's no discussion whatsoever, they've merely asked to explain them a term in the context of - extreme programming, not perl!

Now that particular question would really have better been asked in comp.programming.extreme.

--shmem

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /

");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}

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).
