Perl::Critic::Policy::Bangs::ProhibitVagueNames - Prohibit vague variable names
Variables should have descriptive names.
Names like $data and $info are completely vague.
my $data = shift; # not OK. my $userinfo = shift # OK
See http://www.oreillynet.com/onlamp/blog/2004/03/the_worlds_two_worst_variable.html for more of my ranting on this.
To replace the list of vague names, pass them into the constructor as a key-value pair where the key is "names" and the value is a whitespace delimited series of names. Or specify them in your .perlcriticrc file like this:
[Bangs::ProhibitVagueNames]
names = data count line next
To add names to the list, pass them into the constructor as "add_names", or specify them in your .perlcriticrc file like this:
[Bangs::ProhibitVagueNames]
add_names = foo bar bat
