What is difference between these three?
You should not have asked that question here; you should have looked up the answer in the docs.

  Sheesh!

  This is the first thing I read on perl.beginners after time away.

I take it that you don't agree.

The OP wondered about two built-in functions and the backticks operator. I can't think of a more natural first step to find out how they work than reading about them in the Perl documentation. Do you mean that I'm abusive by suggesting that people make it a habit to use the docs at first hand? If that's what you mean, I think you are plain stupid.
