This could be it. My final question is how to do it when we have two
arrays to pass to a subroutine. I am using the techniques I came
accross in perldoc perlsub but could not figure out what should I have
on the marked line.

sub func2 {
    my ($local_value, $local_array) = @_;
 
    foreach my $value (@$local_value) {
        print "$value \n";
    }
    
    for my $i (0 .. @$local_array - 1) {
        for my $j (0 .. @{$local_array[$i]} - 1) {          <=  line
            print "@$local_array[$i][$j] ";                         <= line
        }
        print "\n";
    }
}

my @myarray=([1,2,3,4,5],[6,7,8,9,10],[11,12,12,3,4]);
my @value=(A,B,C,D,E);

func2 ([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]);

The above codes would only return the content of array @value.
