Hello Perl-Experts,
we were just wondering (in our project room where there is no
sunlight...) why successful 'modern' programming languages like perl and
php need this ugly $-sign in front of (nearly) every variable name.
Is this really just because it makes parsing of program text easier? I
mean, then, after some time, some capable hacker should have volunteered
for improving the parser, shouldn't he?
Thanks for your answers
