$ perl -c -e ' my $c_ref; $c_ref[0] = "foo"'
-e syntax OK
The moral is that you should always use warnings and strict. But, even if you don't (or can't), $c_ref[0] is still obviously wrong if you're looking at code following the HungDamian naming convention.
(Personally, I think we should come up with a better name than that - Damian may like this one too much. And his publicist may not ;-})
PS - I'm not attempting to convert anyone to this style of naming. I don't use it myself, and I'm not sure I'm going to start, either. Someone asked why Damian would have suggested this, and I answered. Personally, if I were to start, it'd be using an 'r' prefix rather than a '_ref' suffix.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
