Line 59:
:: To be clear, in the inverted syntax version, Perl is selecting which lvalue to assign to. This sort of thing is interpreted by some as proof that Perl is a language for people who value tricks over readability. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 14:47, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
::: More specifically, in one example Perl was being used to select one of two values to assign '''to''' the variable $a and in the other example, Perl was being used to select one of two variables ($b or $c) to be assigned '''from''' the variable $a. And these two examples were presented side by side without comment, as if they were equivalent. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 18:27, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
