Oh come on PERL, stop whining about undefined variables already and tell me where the real problem is. I find their error messages always missing the point.

@Sasha Time to switch to Go, where it is the opposite: "variable defined but not used".

@bortzmeyer If I had any power to decide on the language, I'd switch to haskell or ocaml, where you also get warned for not using a variable declared, but also get pattern matching. and algebraïc data types and ❤
Yeah, I hear Go is useful, but I still have to give it a try. But maybe I'll try Rust before.

@bortzmeyer I don't mean to criticize what was apparently a well-meaning attempt to help by recommending a good alternative language but you had me do some reading on Go and I think I must have misunderstood what's written there : yager.io/programming/go.html

There's no serious type inference in Go ? I could almost live with null pointers but no type inference ? Can someone confirm or deny that ?

I mean, friends don't let friends program in a language without a decent typing system.
