+Re: Perl is strange

+<p><a href="http://www.df7cb.de/blog/2008/Perl_is_strange.html">Christoph</a>:
+That's because <code>=~</code> binds more tightly than <code>+</code>. This
+does what you meant:</p>
+
+<pre>
+$ perl -le 'print "yoo" if (1 + 1) =~ /3/'
+</pre>
+
+<p>perlop(1) has a useful table of precedence.</p>
