在Ruby中…

i=true
while(i)
   i=false
   a=2
end
puts defined?(a) // returns true

Perl的许多内置变量:

$# — not a comment! $0, $$, and $? — just like the shell variables by the same name $ˋ, $&, and $' — weird matching variables $" and $, — weird variables for list- and output-field-separators $! — like errno as a number but strerror(errno) as a string $_ — the stealth variable, always used and never seen $#_ — index number of the last subroutine argument... maybe @_ — the (non)names of the current function... maybe $@ — the last-raised exception %:: — the symbol table $:, $^, $~, $-, and $= — something to do with output formats $. and $% — input line number, output page number $/ and $\ — input and output record separators $| — output buffering controller $[ — change your array base from 0-based to 1-based to 42-based: WHEEE! $} — nothing at all, oddly enough! $<, $>, $(, $) — real and effective UIDs and GIDs @ISA — names of current package’s direct superclasses $^T — script start-up time in epoch seconds $^O — current operating system name $^V — what version of Perl this is

Python的everything-is-really-a-reference有一个有趣的副作用:

>>> a = [[1]] * 7
>>> a
[[1], [1], [1], [1], [1], [1], [1]]
>>> a[0][0] = 2
>>> a
[[2], [2], [2], [2], [2], [2], [2]]

Perl的$[(已弃用)，这在之前关于通用Perl变量的另一篇文章中提到过，但它值得特别提到，并有更好的解释。对$[的更改仅限于当前范围。更多的信息以及如何使用它的含义;)可以在$[中找到，请访问http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl/?node_id=480333

我曾经写过一种编程语言，它有一个“strfry”操作符:

"hello world"?
# => "wdo rlholle"

有用的,是吗?

C的多个名称空间:

typedef int i;

void foo()
{
    struct i {i i;} i;
    i: i.i = 3;
    printf( "%i\n", i.i);
}

或与字符:

typedef char c;

void foo()
{
    struct c {c c;} c;
    c: c.c = 'c';
    printf( "%c\n", c.c);
}
