Perhaps Math::Vector? It'd still do the addition correctly without a third dimension.
Though, it's really just:
my $a1 = [1,2]; bless $a1, "test";
my $a2 = [2,4];
my $a3 = $a1+$a2;
print "@$a3\n";
package test;
use strict;
use overload '+' =>
sub { bless [ $_[0][0]+$_[1][0], $_[0][1]+$_[1][1] ], ref $_[0] };
# NOTE: I'm ignoring an important third argument that you'd need to ch
+eck
# if you wanted to support subtraction
1;
UPDATE: I didn't notice that moritz wrote basically the exact same thing as the above, sorry. I'm leaving it because it's a slightly different style.

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.
