Arrays

• An array is a variable that holds a list

• Array variables are prefixed with "@"

@a = ("fred","barney","wilma"); #list of strings

@a = (1,2,3,4,5);

The list constructor operator can also be used to "fill in" values.

@a = (1..5); # same as @a = (1,2,3,4,5);

@a = ($start..$end); # determined by values of $start & $end
