Definitely <=> :)

This and The Marcel Perl Questionnaire remind me of a self-description technique I've heard referred to as a "Chinese self-portrait," with no idea what is particularly Chinese about it. The technique is to answer a series of comparisons like:

  • If I were a color, I'd be...
  • If I were a metal, I'd be...
  • If I were an activity, I'd be...
And so on. So if you know what sort of operator you'd be, then what statement or modifier? What module, or regexp? The answers don't have to be the same as the Questionaire -- you might not be the operator you like most :)

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    But beware if someone at a party asks you to say what your favorite body of water is and then to describe your feelings about it...

    ah yes, but as bind I can match any color, I can match any metal, but I dont think I could do anything with activity. I would have to be a loop terminator like next or last =)
