I believe
eval
would like a word with you...As I said,
No such thing as eval in non-interpreted languages. Unless you're crazy enough to invoke the compiler and exec() the result.
I used eval too in my Perl days which is why I specifically called it out. IMO any time you see eval used there should be another, more proper way to do it.
I was joking, and definitely agree with you. I don't think I've used
eval
since my first programming course in uni.Edit: Except for monkey hacks for laughs of course.
