INIT These compile phase keywords are documented in BEGIN, UNITCHECK, CHECK, INIT and END in perlmod.

cmp These operators are documented in perlop.

grep BLOCK LIST grep EXPR,LIST This is similar in spirit to, but not the same as, grep(1) and its relatives. In particular, it is not limited to using regular expressions. Evaluates the BLOCK or EXPR for each element of LIST (locally setting $_ to each element) and returns the list value consisting of those elements for which the expression evaluated to true. In scalar context, returns the number of times the expression was true. @foo = grep(!/^#/, @bar); # weed out comments or equivalently

NAME SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION HISTORY NAME strict - Perl pragma to restrict unsafe constructs SYNOPSIS use strict; use strict "vars"; use strict "refs"; use strict "subs"; use strict; no strict "vars"; DESCRIPTION If no import list is supplied, all possible restrictions are assumed. (This is the safest mode to operate in, but is sometimes too strict for casual programming.) Currently, there are three possible things to be strict about: "subs", "vars", and "refs". strict refs This generates a

syswrite FILEHANDLE,SCALAR,LENGTH,OFFSET syswrite FILEHANDLE,SCALAR,LENGTH syswrite FILEHANDLE,SCALAR Attempts to write LENGTH bytes of data from variable SCALAR to the specified FILEHANDLE, using write(2). If LENGTH is not specified, writes whole SCALAR. It bypasses buffered IO, so mixing this with reads (other than sysread()), print, write, seek, tell, or eof may cause confusion because the perlio and stdio layers usually buffer data. Returns the number of bytes actually written, or undef if

$<digits> ($1, $2, ...) Contains the subpattern from the corresponding set of capturing parentheses from the last successful pattern match, not counting patterns matched in nested blocks that have been exited already. These variables are read-only and dynamically-scoped. Mnemonic: like \digits.
