Re^2: converting strings to ints

If you know you are going to be trying to treat null strings as numbers, turn it off:

Then perlcritic will complain:

Warnings disabled at line 10, column 5. See page 431 of PBP. (Severity: 4)

Solution 1 (ugly): no warnings 'numeric'; ## no critic (TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitNoWarnings)

Solucion 2 (dangerous): add the following to ~/.perlcriticrc:

[TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitNoWarnings]
allow = numeric

Then perlcritic will complain: Quite frankly my dear, I don't give a damn! :) And if you're going to allow a piece of dumb software to override your own judgement, then I've got a link that will tell you your computer is riddled with virii and trojans and will only charge you $49.99 to rid you of them. As configured by default, it shouldn't be called perlcritic but perlblatentalarmist. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

Thankfully, it can be configured! -- David Serrano (Please treat my english text just like Perl code, i.e. feel free to notify me of any syntax, grammar, style and/or spelling error. Thank you!).
