in thread fetching rows problem
if you do it without the parens, you will get the number of elements in the array,
No. It doesn't work that way.
fetchrow_array in scalar context will return the first or the last field (See DBI specification change). Which one is currently undefined, but with a query that returns only one value the issue is irrelevant.
