I saw code which works like this:
do_something($param) || warn "something went wrong\n";
and I also saw code like this:
eval {
do_something_else($param);
};
if($@) {
warn "something went wrong\n";
}
Should I use eval/die in all my subroutines? Should I write all my code based on stuff returned from subroutines? Isn't eval'ing the code ( over and over ) gonna slow me down?
