in reply to Plural variable naming (or not?)

Like most people here, I usually name $singular, @plural. My hashes are singular if they represent a data structure, and plural if they represent a mapping.

One exception to the first rule, though, is that I'm perfectly happy to name a scalar in the plural... if it's an arrayref or an appropriate hashref.
