A little bit of reading would have helped...
It's all there: perlop
# q/STRING/ # 'STRING' A single-quoted, literal string. A backslash represents a backslash un +less followed by the delimiter or another backslash, in which case th +e delimiter or backslash is interpolated. $foo = q!I said, "You said, 'She said it.'"!; $bar = q('This is it.'); $baz = '\n'; # a two-character string qw/STRING/ Evaluates to a list of the words extracted out of STRING, using embedd +ed whitespace as the word delimiters. It can be understood as being r +oughly equivalent to: split(' ', q/STRING/); the differences being that it generates a real list at compile time, a +nd in scalar context it returns the last element in the list. So this + expression: qw(foo bar baz) is semantically equivalent to the list: 'foo', 'bar', 'baz'

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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.
