NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitAmpersandSigils - Don't call functions with a leading ampersand sigil.
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
Since Perl 5, the ampersand sigil is completely optional when invoking subroutines. And it's easily confused with the bitwise 'and' operator.
@result = &some_function(); #Not ok
@result = some_function(); #okCONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
