| Randal | can't teach all of structured program design in one line |
| MorphineChild | tried %{$foo} - didn't work with use strict |
| Randal | MorphineChild - you can and you very well bloody shoudln't |
| michoelc | hobbs, where can I read up on this? Never did OOP before? hobbs, or is there an easier way? |
| MorphineChild | Randal ah, why, why |
| hobbs | MorphineChild: the point of strict is basically not to let you do that :) |
| Randal | the most frequent faq here "why not var var" :) |
| hobbs | so good, it's working! thanks for reporting in. |
| Randal | perlbot, varvar |
| perlbot | Why it's stupid to `use a variable as a variable name' - http://perl.plover.com/varvarname.html |
| Randal | MorphineChild - that's for you |
| MorphineChild | i guess i can pass %hash to my sub and do proc(\%) but that's ugly |
| buu | Way less ugly. |
| MorphineChild | live is so unfair ;d |
| sili | let's go shopping |
| Randal | "live"? |
| hobbs | %main:: is just a hash anyway :-P |
| mofino | But your insult... |
| buubot | .. is a scurvy potvaliant whoreson! |
| MorphineChild | argh make that life |
| mofino | lame |
| jagerman | buu: your bot is broken. |
| mofino | buu sucks this one thing makes buu suck 100% |
| buu | FUCK OFF |
| mofino | oh |
| jagerman | mofino: I think he even sucks 110%! |
| mofino | it appears he is still alive even after all that sucking |
| michoelc | hobbs, Randal, sorry if I am bugging you.. is there a way to do what I want? |
| buu | michoelc: What on earth are you trying to do? |
| Jmax- | michoelc: are the two packages in the same file? |
| mofino | buu, give you a child! how can you be so cold? |
| hobbs | Jmax-: don't even. |
| michoelc | Jmax-, no |
| Jmax- | hobbs: eh? why not? michoelc: anyways modules should be just that: modular michoelc: if you need to use that variable consistently throughout each function, consider using OO |
| hobbs | "look, here's an easier way to be stupid! and it's fragile, too!" |
