Well, there's:
@new = map { my $tmp = $_; $tmp =~ s/foo/bar/; $tmp; } @original;
OR (this is bad form, you shouldn't use map in void context)
map { s/foo/bar/ } (@new = @original);
You should really question why you want to do this with map. If it's for
education, that's fine, learn away; however, if this is to go in production
code, write something more readable. map is a nice hammer, but not
everything is a nail.
