@ARGV Short Name : @ARGV Scope : always global This variable is an array of the arguments passed to the script. he first element of this array is the first argument (not the program name). As the arguments are processed, the value of this variable can alter. Example: $TestString = “There were $#ARGV arguments first… Read More »
Perl can handle both whole numbers (integers, like 37) and floating-point numbers (real numbers with decimal points, like 17.5 or -235.2). Internally, Perl handles both as ‘double precision floating-point values‘, but in Perl code they are treated the same way and can be used interchangeably. Here are some examples of number literals : 128 (positive… Read More »
Variable names can start with a letter, a number, or an underscore, although they normally begin with a letter and can then be composed of any combination of letters, numbers, and the underscore character. Variables can start with a number, but they must be entirely composed of that number; for example, $123 is valid, but… Read More »

Assign some variables of a hash to an array. i.e you want to take some of the elements from hash based on there keys into a array here is a trick %hash = ( 1 => ‘one’, 2 => ‘two’,3 => ‘three’); @array = @hash{‘1′,’2’}; If you have a hashref and want to… Read More »

Perl hashes have no internal order. A hash consists of a number of “buckets”. When a record is inserted into the hash, the key is transformed, using a “hash function”, into a bucket number. The details of the hash function itself are not important, but a good hash function ensures that even very similar keys… Read More »
Many. For example ‘this is a string’ can be expressed in: “this is a string” qq/this is a string like double-quoted string/ qq^this is a string like double-quoted string^ q/this is a string/ q&this is a string& q(this is a string)
