O' gracious Monks we have heard on high. Swiftly coding o'er the cubicles

PerlMonks, I throw myself at your feet. I am worthless

I've only started using use strict; and this error eludes me. Yes Monks, I tried googling it and I don't understand why this is still happening.

The output reads as such,

 1 key
Can't use string ("101") as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" in use at
+ arry_test.pl line 38.

This is the subroutine I'm working on.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;

my @a = (1..12864);

&chunky(@a);


sub chunky {
    my %master;
       my @temp;
    
    my @input = @_;
    my $chunks = int(scalar(@_)/100);
    
    my $carryOver=0;
    my $tipping;
    my $i;
    my $k;
    my $keyed;
    for($i=1;$i<=$chunks;$i++){
        $tipping = $carryOver+100;
        for($k=$carryOver;$k<=$tipping;$k++){
            push(@temp,$input[$k]);
            if($k==$tipping){ $carryOver=$k;}
        }
        $keyed = $i." key";
        $master{$keyed}=@temp;
        undef @temp;
        undef $keyed;
    }       
   
   foreach my $key (sort keys %master){
       print $key."\n";
       
       foreach( @{$master{$key}} ){
               print $_."\t";
           }
           print "\n";
       }

TUSEN TAKK MONKS

I FIGURED IT OUT

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;

my @a = (1..1284);

&chunky(@a);


sub chunky {
    my %master;
       my @temp;
    
    my @input = @_;
    my $chunks = int(scalar(@_)/100);
    
    my $carryOver=0;
    my $tipping;
    my $i;
    my $k;
    my $keyed;
    for($i=1;$i<=$chunks;$i++){
        $tipping = $carryOver+100;
        for($k=$carryOver;$k<=$tipping;$k++){
            push(@temp,$input[$k]);
            if($k==$tipping){ $carryOver=$k;}
        }
        $keyed = $i." key";
        $master{$keyed}=[@temp];
        undef @temp;
        undef $keyed;
    }       
   
   foreach my $key (sort keys %master){
       print $key."\n";
       
       foreach( @{$master{$key}} ){
               print $_."\t";
           }
           print "\n";
       }
       
       
}
