Style as in functional, object-oriented, etc. Not tedious bikeshedding about whitespace and brackets.

- kbenson 13y agoI know, that's why I said it's not strictly untrue. Depending on your current state of mind, "style" may mean something different to you. I didn't mean to imply it was untrue, just that it did make me pause for a second and think. The truth is, since I'm programming in Perl most of the time and I'm not restricted much in style (in the paradigm sense), I'm often changing between functional, imperative and OO "styles", so I don't think of "style" as referring to that very much. To be clear, I don't think this is inherently a benefit of Perl, but of the class of languages to which it belongs.
