Actualy the speed difference has nothing to do with the evals. The evals are all done at compile time to do the overloading without 700 lines of code ;).

The difference is that you short ccircuit the logic operation so that it stops as soon as it knows the anser. Mine collects data and reports what items caused the failure.

A quick less than scientific benchmark using short circuiting speeds my code up to the point where yours is 350% faster still.. Which isn't bad but since the same benchmark was showing yours 1277% faster a second ago its not a bad speed up.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
