Okay, I get it now. So I could still do some playing around with

@rray = ( 'foo', 'bar', 'spam', 'eggs' );
$[=3;
$calar = $[;
print $rray[$calar] while $calar++<@rray;
[download]

but not

@rray = ( 'foo', 'bar', 'spam', 'eggs' );
$[=$#rray
$calar = $[;
print $rray[$calar] while $calar++<@rray;
[download]

Good to know. Thanks, jsprat
