ABOUT PERLOPREF
==========

This project has been renamed and moved to http://github.com/cowens/perlopquick 

The perlopref POD document is a quick reference for the various Perl operators.
It is organized by operator, sorted by precedence groups (inside of a
precedence group there is no sorting).

INSTALLATION
============

Copy the perlopref.pod file into a place when Perl can find it (i.e. someplace
in your @INC).

perlopref's Issues

Typo (and maybe a little unclarity) in the modulo section

In the first paragraph of the description of the modulo operator, there's a small typo.

The remainder is affect by the type of the numbers and whether they are
positive or negative.

I think you want 'affected' rather than 'affect'. Beyond that, the phrasing of the sentence may be overly abstract/general. Maybe 'the result returned by the operator is partly determined by the sign and type of the number'? That's probably not great either. Anyhow, the next paragraphs explain things in great detail, but the initial sentence is hard to follow.
