[thelist] Assignment Question

[Ed McCarroll]

> I figured most languages(i'm not gonna say all) would be the same for 
assignment ops.

I've programmed in many languages, but not PERL, and:

1. Assignment ops do vary, depending upon language, more than you'd think.
2. I've never seen a "|=" operator.
3. I'm guessing "a |= b" might mean "a = a | b", like C's "+=" operator.

Sorry.
