If you do not \f(CW\*(C`proceed\*(C'\fR and also do not set either a \&\f(CW\*(C`return_value\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`exception\*(C'\fR, the function call will return \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR in scalar context or the null list \f(CW\*(C`()\*(C'\fR in list context. .SH "AUTHORS" .IX Header "AUTHORS" Adam Kennedy .SH "COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE" .IX Header "COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE" Copyright 2010 \- 2013 Adam Kennedy. .PP This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
