Re: Undocumented variable?

in reply to Undocumented variable?

The built-in variables documented in perlvar are a part of a declared typeglob. That means you can even do silly things like this:

#/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

@> = qw(Roses are red. Violets are blue.);
print $_, " " for @>;

@> looks like a wrapped rose to me...

You can even make Perl program that looks like a rose with a stem. The following program compiles and runs, although it doesn't do anything useful:

    perl -e '@}-`-,-`-%-'
