Perl::Critic::Policy::ControlStructures::ProhibitCStyleForLoops(3)
NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::ControlStructures::ProhibitCStyleForLoops - Write
"for(0..20)" instead of "for($i=0; $i<=20; $i++)".
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
The 3-part "for" loop that Perl inherits from C is butt-ugly, and only
really necessary if you need irregular counting. The very Perlish ".."
operator is much more elegant and readable.
for($i=0; $i<=$max; $i++){ #ick!
do_something($i);
}
for(0..$max){ #very nice
do_something($_);
}
CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
