That's not an object. All programming languages have "objects" in the sense of something which does stuff in ways you don't care about. Do you really need to know the precise details of CORDIC implementations used to compute a cosine of a C double? That's not OOP.
OOP is about being able to add objects not in the language spec. Plus all those little things like inheritance, per-object instance variables, class variables, etc. Perl has some of these, to varying degrees.
Sure, you can use the term "OOP" to refer to something completely different. But you'll be proving that Perl is something completely different than what people mean by OOP...

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).
