Here's a key to the markup: [page-number]: serious technical mistake {page-number}: minor technical mistake : important language/formatting problem (page-number): language change or minor formatting problem ?page-number?: reader question or request for clarification This page was updated March 26, 2007. UNCONFIRMED errors and comments from readers: (90) 3rd paragraph; Perl is a scripting language, with a quirky syntax... my $name = "Bruce"; print "Hi, ", $x, "\n"; ----- The above example is quite "quirky" no doubt :-) Less quirky would be: print "Hi, ", $name, "\n"; {99} 1/3 from bottom; "1..3 represents 1, 2, 3. You can include the 3 with a third period." "include" should be "exclude"
