in reply to Understanding this regex

See Regexp Quote Like Operators:
If the /g option is not used, m// in list context returns a list consisting of the subexpressions matched by the parentheses in the pattern, that is, ($1 , $2 , $3 ...). (...) When there are no parentheses in the pattern, the return value is the list (1) for success. With or without parentheses, an empty list is returned upon failure.
