Perl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitEscaUserhContributedPerl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitEscapedCharacters(3pm)

NAME
       Perl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitEscapedCharacters - Write ""N{DELETE}"" instead of ""x7F"", etc.

AFFILIATION
       This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION
       Escaped numeric values are hard to read and debug.  Instead, use named values.  The syntax is less compact, but dramatically more readable.

	   $str = "x7Fx06x22Z";			   # not ok

	   use charnames ':full';
	   $str = "N{DELETE}N{ACKNOWLEDGE}N{CANCEL}Z";  # ok

CONFIGURATION
       This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
