I have seen some quick help option in some of the interpreters in python like Ipython and bpython. Do we have similar kind of projects or interpreter tools which I can start using in perl.

If you are looking for a REPL, look at https://metacpan.org/pod/Devel::REPL

Just install with cpan or cpan-minus

$ perl -le 'system "df -h"'

Both two styles work fine. What's the difference between them and which is better usage?

I've a program that needs to print some fields formatted in different ways according to some conditions. The solution I come up is working, but I'm looking for a suggestion for something more elegant.

What I do is something like the following:

print sprintf $formats[ $condition ], @fields;

where $condition is the condition used to select a sprintf format string out of an array (@formats) that contains something like:

my @formats = (
 qw( %09d %-1s %03d ... )
, qw(%-4s %1s %09d %1s %-150s %-4s %011d)
, ...
);

Now, while this approach is working really fine, it is a little hard to decode, especially considering that I've got some formats with 50+ fields. I don't believe that using Perl formats is a solution, it will provide a quite longer configuration (consider I've got even fields specified as "-100%s"!).

Any suggestion to get a more readable code?
