if you are just trying to access a set of nested arrays, use something like

my @parent=([1,2,3],
                      [7,8,9]);

print "$parent[0][1]\n";    # outputs 2
print "$parent[1][2]\n";    # outputs 9


## now to access the the info, use references
foreach my $num(@parent){
    foreach my $kid(@$num){
        print "$kid\n";
    }
}

check out 'Learning Perl', 'Programming Perl' and the 'Perl Cookbook' for
excellent examples.  also 'perldoc perlref' at your shell prompt should pull
up the perl reference info, but it is a little esoteric...

www.perldoc.com is a great source of info as well.
