As a casual reader, albeit one that has used, and is used, to the join function, I had to go over the OP twice to understand what is said in the first option (join '',a,b,c). I can't really relate to using a function in a way that is counter intuitive to someone who is familiar with the way it should be used, but I'd hazard that for anyone who never used it, or Perl, neither will make sense; and if that person is to perldoc it, the first example might only serve to confuse more.

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).
