- $myroom->{$room}->{r}: $myroom contains a hash reference. The "->" operator dereferences it. $room must contain a hash key. {$room} uses the key in $room to index into the anonymous hash referenced by $myroom. $myroom->{$room} contains another anonymous hash reference. {r} indexes into that 2nd level anonymous hash.
- (/l: (.+)$/i): This part: /l: (.+)$/i is a regular expression. It says to match "l: ", followed by one or more characters, excluding newline. Capture those. And this all must occur at the end of the string. Case insensitively.
- Assign the value of 0 to the variable $system. Assign the first value captured in a regexp to $Proom. Assign the second value captured in a regexp to $cDept, after "upper casing" it.

Update: I see you have 21 posts here to PerlMonks starting in June. So perhaps my interpretation of your question was more basic than what you were asking. If so, I apologize and request that you be more specific in your question. And if not, then please read the documents I linked to. :)

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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
