in reply to Variable name

... you really do want a hash. 

use warnings; use strict; 
my %f = ( oo => 'cats' );
print $f{ oo };

[download]

using an explicit hash instead of using the symbol table as a hash seems like the right thing to do ...

@_=qw; ask f00li5h to appear and remain for a moment of pretend better than a lifetime;;s;;@_[map hex,split'',B204316D8C2A4516DE];;y/05/os/&print;

Update would have worked just as well as a reply to Re^2: Variable name by Joost
