It's an associative array (aka hash). It has three values, each can be
accessed by their "key" name.
%daysPerMonth = ('Jan' => 31, 'Feb' => 28, 'Mar' => 31);
print $daysPerMonth{Jan}; # prints 31
print $daysPerMonth{Feb}; # prints 28
print $daysPerMonth{Mar}; # prints 31

Hello,
What does % represent in the following statement?
%daysPerMonth = ('Jan' => 31, 'Feb' => 28, 'Mar' => 31);
Is %daysPerMonth an array? Do we really need an array for this?
TIA,
- NP
