Sports-specific needs aside, the bulk of my initial programming for my clients’ upper body work focuses on the posterior chain, and there's no change here. I believe in lengthening the front and strengthening the back of the body first.

A piece of "heredoc" data can appear anywhere in a Perl expression. It starts with an initial operator written either << or <<~. The second variant with an added tilde ~, available since Perl v5.26, introduces an indented heredoc, where initial spaces on the left of each line are automatically removed by the interpreter.

Empty string as delimiter

The delimiter string can also be .. an empty string! In that case the heredoc content ends at the next empty line; this is an elegant way to minimize noise around the data.

Several heredocs can start on the same line, as in this example:

my @blogs = $dbh->selectall_array(<<~END_OF_SQL, {}, split(/\n/, <<~END_OF_BIND_VALUES));

But despite significant buzz across Dutch literary circles — including some criticism that, when placed in a row of several, it bore an unfortunate resemblance to the Nazi swastika — the mark quickly fizzled.

Percontation point

The percontation point, a reversed question mark later referred to as a rhetorical question mark, was proposed by Henry Denham in the 1580s and was used at the end of a question that does not require an answer—a rhetorical question. Its use died out in the 17th century.

This character can be represented using the reversed question mark (⸮) found in Unicode as U+2E2E; another character approximating it is the Arabic question mark (؟), U+061F.
