Scalar Data A scalar is the simplest kind of data that Perl manipulates String of characters primatives Numbers Perl always uses double-point precision for values (no difference between floats or integers) Examples: #Numbers $myint1 = 123456; $myint2 = 123_456; # can use _ anywhere in number $mybig1 = 1.23e10; # e notation $mysmall1 = 0xff; […]

Some of my personal notes and references regarding general programming. SOLID A collection of principles that outline how software engineers can design and develop code that is easy to read, has flexibility to evolve and therefore easier to maintain. It was first defined by Robert C Martin (Uncle Bob) in his book – Design […]
