Re: Most useless function.

is_perl_installed;

would seem to be as about as useless as it could get, as well as quite difficult to implement in Perl for the case returning 'false'.

You can create freestanding applications with PerlApp, so you could write a PerlApp to check to see if perl was installed on the host system. That would be 1 (unlikely) use of "is_perl_installed"

:)

sub is_perl_installed {
    if(rand() < 0.5) {
        recursively_unlink(find_perl_on_disk());
        return 0;
    }
    return 1;
}

Ah someone in the true spirit of the thing.
