=head1 NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitMismatchedOperators - Don't mix numeric operators with string operands, or vice-versa.
=head1 AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core L<Perl::Critic|Perl::Critic>
distribution.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Using the wrong operator type for a value can obscure coding intent
and possibly lead to subtle errors. An example of this is mixing a
string equality operator with a numeric value, or vice-versa.
if ($foo == 'bar') {} #not ok
if ($foo eq 'bar') {} #ok
if ($foo eq 123) {} #not ok
if ($foo == 123) {} #ok
=head1 CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
=head1 NOTES
If L<warnings|warnings> are enabled, the Perl interpreter usually
warns you about using mismatched operators at run-time. This Policy
does essentially the same thing, but at author-time. That way, you
can find our about them sooner.
