zshzn

Hi. I am zshzn. I am just another modest Perl coder. I write a lot of quick scripts, some longer programs, and some personal use modules. I have not made a big splash at Perlmonks nor at CPAN. I am, however, in love with Perl.

I have nothing worth offering except some quotes I like.

"People should quote me when I say something clever, but they never do (and yes, I do say clever things occacionally)" - PerlJam

This isn't a Perl quote but it still makes me laugh. (Background: we were talking about snow, and arachne is nemo's girlfriend)

<@arachne> we only got an inch ;( after they predicted 6-0
<@arachne> 6-10*
<@arachne> dissapointing ;P
<@bk> snow, or nemo?

<malverian> Is there an easy way to check if a variable is a hash?
<ew73> Use ref or isa
<integral> I would personally just look for the % when naming the variable.
<tybalt89> $var = bless [], 'HASH'; # mad cackles...
<integral> use overload '%{}' => \&evil_laughter;

<@baud> interesting suggestion on p5p - rename Perl 6 to "Onion"
<@fish> because it makes people cry?
<@dnm> Because like the online 'zine onion, it's completely made up of fiction?
