in thread Strange behavior of iteration while creating Perl/Tk widgets dynamically

The perl foreach (or its alias for) loop does not have this problem. 
my @subs;
#for(my $i=1;$i<=5;$i++){
for my $i (1..5) {
        push @subs, sub {
                print "i=$i\n";
        };
}
$subs[3]->();

OUTPUT:

i=4

    And this code confirms your finding:

    my @subs;
for(my $i=1;$i<=2;$i++){ print \$i."\n" }
print "----\n";
for my $i (1..2) { print \$i."\n" }

    Which made me try this:

    my @subs;
my $i;
for($i=1;$i<=5;$i++){
        push @subs, sub {
                print "i=$i\n";
        };
}
$i = 100;
$subs[3]->();

    It prints i=100
