I'm the complete opposite. I can't remember the last time that I used for. It always seems to me that for iteraring over a list, the foreach syntax is more natural. I find

foreach (@array) {
  # do someting with $_
}
[download]

far easier to follow than

for ($i = 0; $i < @array; ++$i) {
  # do something with $array[$i]
}
[download]

If, for some reason you need the array index for some calculation, then you can use

foreach $i (0 .. $#array) {
  # do something with $array[$i]
}
[download]

Of course, if you're really keen on saving keystrokes you can always spell foreach as for.
