Problems Always have a catch-all. If you're doing an if statement, always have an else. If no actual need, then at least make a comment to that effect. Can be left out if blatantly obvious, such as an if that dies. if ( something bad ) { die "something bad happened"; } if ( test ) { ... } else { # do nothing }
