Omission of the regular expression binding operators
 
If regular expression matches are being made against the topic variable, it is possible to omit the regular expression binding operators:
 
$_ = "I like banana milkshake.";
if (/banana/) { # The regular expression binding operator is omitted
print "Match found\n";
}
