in reply to Perl Idioms Explained - keys %{{map{$_=>1}@list}}

Along similar lines, I will often create a hash of keys which are needed for lookup. For example, I will do:
my %acceptable_server = map { $_ => 1 } qw( DEV QA PROD );
It's a nice way of working with a changing list of static acceptable things.
