I understand the operational difference between using $_ and $i; it's the last two examples which confuse me, because one set of closures ends up using the very last value for $i (as I would expect for an $i scoped outside the loop), and th

Perl 5.10.0 gives three different sets of answers. Map works as the original author expected: @fs = map {sub {$_ + shift}} (0..9); print $fs[$_](3), " " for (0..9); >>> 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 A Perlish for loop, or ra

Freshly ground whole grains and sourdough are OK too. But I'm right there with you. I could never hack the Atkins diet. If I had no teeth, I'd just soak the bread in broth. :)

People are not idiots It sounds to me like you have not worked in tech support. Considering that GS is a hosting site for tech support forums, my opinion is that they should be as close to idiot-proof as possible. For some reason, in my

I'd also submit that low-power electronic components are far more readily available (i.e. cheap) than ones which can handle a lot of juice.

I am posting in a dead thread to see what happens. I have nothing to add to this discussion, other than that a few years ago, I was using a 90lb fixed-sync CRT.

Commercially, honeybees are essential. There are no other insects which can be so easily harnessed for huge-scale pollination. Without bees, crops would still be pollinated by other insects, but not nearly in the amount needed to sustain

Yeah, I had never heard 'idempotence' used in a mathematical sense before. I just think of that as a function hitting a fixed point.

by gamache 18y ago
