utterlyconfused has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi Perlmonks,
I'm new to perl and I have an exam coming up. Trying to
figure out the meaning of certain special variables, in this
case $/. I just want to confirm if I understand it right.
Does it convert a multiline string into a single
string?
Thanks
