Perhaps you should compile your Perl with long doubles one of these megaseconds.

It's there as a sop to former Ada programmers.

For me, writing is a love-hate relationship.

In general, they do what you want, unless you want consistency.

Perl is designed to give you several ways to do anything, so consider picking the most readable one.

Just because you're into control doesn't mean you're in control.
