Update in perlop

Hello all,

In the section: http://perldoc.perl.org/perlop.html#Auto-increment-and-Auto=
-decrement

I believe this line is incorrect:
"undef is always treated as numeric, and in particular is changed to 0 befo=
re incrementing (so that a post-increment of an undef value will return 0 r=
ather than undef)."

Upon testing:
$ perl -le '$val=3Dundef;print("Initial Value: $val");$val++;print("Increme=
nted Value: $val");'
Initial Value:
Incremented Value: 1

It seems that the post-increment value of undef will be 1, not 0 as the doc=
umentation states.

Regards,
Prateek
