there are possibly three or four ways that sentance can be parsed.

the coping with scoping problems - as to how far 'closure'
goes with a variable declared at what level -

cf:
        http://perl.plover.com/FAQs/Namespaces.html

{ that also helps with the local/my dialog as well - subsume
that class of variable declaration question here }

the other side is 'what variables are already reserved'

cf:
        perldoc perlvar

what are all the voodoo majik in using references

cf:

        perldoc perlref

and for fun

        perldoc perlreftut - for the tutorial

mea kulpa - I always start with the 'man man' - but the root of the
internal perldocs is found with -

        perldoc perl

lists the 'index' of the perlFoo - including

        perldoc perlapi

whater is the autogenerated Perl API
