23:40 <****> I read some stuff about perl being more practical than java, yet a friend of mine disparages perl, is perl fine for parge e commerce sites still? or is it being eclipsed by other crap liek python?
23:40 <****> I have a brain freeze

23:42 <****> i'll watch, closely, VERY closely
23:43 <****>connection...well if i do dbconn(host, db, pass, user) then do put my query in a var try to prepare it, and execute it, it returns an error saying Can't call method "prepare" on an undefined value...hmm
23:43 <****> ah in that case
23:43 <****> of course!
23:43 <****> wow didn't realize the list was so long
23:43 <****> Oh good idea! (do block)
23:43 <****> Bilbo1507: golf?
23:43 <****> GumbyGumby, do my block
23:43 <****> nanonyme: Five in each ear. One through my right nostril. One through the nipple on my way to move on and twist a little excessive to re-declare in every little block.
23:44 <****> Because I'm having fun with this script I'll never use again. (why a one-liner)
23:44 <****> sure, whatever. good night
23:44 <****> Bilbo1507: those words will come back to haunt you
23:45 <****> Khisanth: thanks
23:45 <****> "script I'll never use again" - if you'll never use it again why are you scripting it?
23:46 <****> Khisanth, no the won't, because this script won't work a second time because it makes unrepeatable changes to a DB
23:46 <****> Golf? Not this time :)
23:46 <****> what? no backup? :)
23:46 <****> Well sure there's a backup but I'll never need it. <-- those words WILL come back to haunt me :)
23:48 <****> simcop2387: it's even longer, actually
23:48 <****> heh

23:49 <****> I know regexps, but I never got around to learning how to implement them in perl. Are there any primer sheets or anything for that?
23:49 <****> wait, that was duplicated
23:49 <****> anyway, those are nicks he used in #haskell
23:49 <****> recon: perldoc perlretut
23:50 <****> implement? why are you trying to rewrite the re engine? I guess avar could probably help with that
23:50 <****> by implement, i mean "use". how can i "use" regexes in perl.
23:51 <****> $stff_to_match =~ /pattern/ :)
23:52 <****> HLAGH
23:52 <****> Khisanth: that was easier than waiting for 30 minutes waiting for perl-doc to install.
23:52 <****> hah! The correct and useless answer :)
23:52 <****> oh I figured he wants to know what to put inside the //
23:52 <****> someone wanna take over my re::engine:: stuff?:)
23:52 <****> Khisanth: does that return the line, the individual characters, a list, etc.
23:52 <****> 5.10 will be out soon and I really don't feel like finishing some of it;/
23:53 * avar working on Perl 6 -> Lisp
23:55 <****> recon, $1,$2 etc after returns the match if you use parentheses; there are 2 other variables I forget that return what's before and afer the match
23:56 <****> in fact ignore what I'm saying
23:56 <****> recon: depends on context
23:56 <****> and wait for someone else to come along and correct me
23:56 <****> Khisanth: say i use /hi/ on $text which equals "hi there". does it return the line or just "hi"?
23:57 <****> $& contains what matched
23:58 <****> $` returns what was before the match
23:58 <****> $' what is after
23:58 * CPAN upload: lambda-v0.0.1 by EWILHELM
23:58 <****> ror: so "$text = "hi there"; $text = /hi/; print $&;" returns "hi"?
23:59 <****> $text =~ /hi/; you mean; and yes it would
23:59 <****> and you're not supposed to use $&, $`, $'. EVER.
23:59 <****> better to use /(hi)/ then use $1 I'm sure
