Quick Perl Help (notfred in plz =])

$wavfile = sprintf "$album_performer - $album_title - %02d - $performer - $title.wav", $track_no;


i want to make it so that if $album_performer == $performer, it will be "$album_performer - $album_title - (%02d) - $title.wav" but if $performer differs from $album_performer, it should be like it already is

how? (basically i just need to know the syntax for a "==" operation)

my guess:

if ($album_performer == $performer) {
$wavfile = sprintf "$album_performer - $album_title - %02d - $title.wav", $track_no;
} else {
$wavfile = sprintf "$album_performer - $album_title - %02d - $performer - $title.wav", $track_no;
}

CLIFF NOTES: Does perl use == like C++ uses ==? If not, how can I do an if variableA equals variableB?

screw it, i executed the script, i'll find out in a minute =)

damnit, it always thinks the if is T even if it's F

"$a eq $b
Is $a, as a string, equal to $b?"
