Hi forum!
Hello,
I just wanted to know what does the following line do....
@{$args{owner}} = qw(hero wierd);
You are assigning a list to the anonymous array in $args{owner}.
lets assume $args{owner} = 'sachin';
'sachin' is a scalar value.
Then it would mean @{sachin} = qw(hero wierd);
No, the scalar value is replaced with an anonymous array.
what would {sachin} stand for does it mean an hash refernce or
something else. I am lost.
'sachin' would not exist after the assignment.
Can someone explain or atleast point me to some documentation, I tried
looking into the perldoc but i am sure i missed something.
perldoc perldsc
perldoc perllol
perldoc perldata
perldoc perlreftut
perldoc perlref
