in reply to (Beginner) Can 'qw' be implemented into a list?

I thought I could initialize scalars which uses the data that qw Latitude / Longitude lists, but I'm having no luck with this. Is it possible?

My guess as to your meaning:

my( $name, $lat, $long ) = qw(Name Latitude Longitude);

Though it doesn't seem too useful.
