I was going to suggest:
my @ary2 = grep {defined} @hash{@ary};
It's tempting to just say my @ary2 = @hash{@ary}. But the values in @ary that don't match keys in %hash produce undefined values that have to be weeded out.
Here's a quick demo:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my @ary = ('a', 'c', 'g', 'l');
my %hash = (a => 1, b => 2, c => 3, d => 4);
my @ary2 = grep {defined} @hash{@ary};
print "[$_]\n" for @ary2;

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
