I want to assign an array to the value of hash. The key is scalar varaible. At a later stage in program, I need to access the key-value pairs. My code is something like this: 
my %new_hash;
my $some_key1 = 1234;
my @some_array1 = ("Name1", "Email1", "Age1");
$new_hash{$some_key1} = @some_array1;

my $some_key2 = 1235;
my @some_array2 = ("Name2", "Email2", "Age2");
$new_hash{$some_key2} = @some_array2;

for (keys %new_hash) {
     my @value_array = $new_hash{$_};
     print "Key is $_ and Second Element of array is $value_array[1] \
+n";
}

$value_array1 does not fetch any value...it is empty. But, $value_array[0] gets the length of the array i.e. 3. Can someone tell me the correct way to go about it?
