When I run what you claim is your script I get:

Can't locate stricts.pm in @INC (you may need to install the stricts m
+odule) (@INC contains: C:\Program Files (x86)\ActiveState Komodo IDE 
+8\lib\support\dbgp\perllib c:/strawberry/perl/site/lib c:/strawberry/
+perl/vendor/lib c:/strawberry/perl/lib .) at noname.pl line 2.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at noname.pl line 2.

So either you haven't told us what your output really was, or the code you published isn't the code you ran.
