perlquestion darren_uk This is my first post. And as usual I'm cribbing from existing code and learning on the job rather than having the luxury of time to read the Camel book... <p></p>What is the different between <br>@stuff = "This","That","Other"; <br>and <br>@stuff = ("This","That","Other"); <br>? <p></p> print @stuff; gives me what I expect with the parenthesis, but I'm curious what's happening (how perl's interpreting) the first form without the parenthesis.
