This pragma allows constants to be declared at compile-time.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When a constant is used in an expression, Perl replaces it with its value at
|
||
|
compile time, and may then optimize the expression further. In particular,
|
||
|
any code in an if (CONSTANT) block will be optimized away if the constant
|
||
|
is false.
