Re^6: Perl vs C

[JavaFan]

Given that Perl arrays are partially implemented using linked lists, that shouldn't be too much of a surprise.

That is new to me. I never got that impression from the perlguts manual page, nor from the illustrated version. Care to explain where linked lists come into play?

'Linked lists' come from a slight miss-remembering of what I read in Re: To push and pop or not to push and pop? and Shift, Pop, Unshift and Push with Impunity! a couple of years ago. Comment struck from the record.
