Here two or three workarounds (can't test the latter)

use utf8; use strict; use warnings; use Data::Dumper; my %h = (a => 'alfa', b => 'beta'); print "\n\nWorkaround 1 \n"; print map { "\t>>$_<<\n" } "$h{a}", "$h{111}", "$h{b}"; print "after third:\n", Dumper(\%h); print "\n\nWorkaround 2 \n"; print map { "\t>>$h{$_}<<\n" } qw/a 222 b/; print "after third:\n", Dumper(\%h); # print "\n\nWorkaround 3 \n"; # no autovivification; # print map { "\t>>$_<<\n" } $h{a}, $h{333}, $h{b}; # print "after third:\n", Dumper(\%h);
