How I can assign "test" to all the list items? e.g. $a to $e
First of all, you should not name lexical variables "$a" and "$b" because
these are built-in Perl variables: http://perldoc.perl.org/perlvar.html .
Otherwise you can assign several variables the same initial value using the x
operator:
my ($x, $y, $z) = (("test") x 3);
Note that both pairs of parentheses on the right are required.
No they are not. Only the parentheses around "test" are required.
Another way to do it:
$_ = "test" for my ($x, $y, $z);
