Hey There Monks, i'm wokring on a small script which interacts with an sqlite database. I'd like to make a function which inserts values in a certain table. Here's the function: 
sub insert_element {
    my $table = pop @_;
    my @values = @_;
    $db->do("insert into '$table' values ('@values')") or my $error = 
+$db->errstr; if (defined($error)) { die syslog('info',"insert: $error
+"); }
}

I have problems with the @values array, because the $db->do function wont split it into separate values. Is there a good way to separate it automatically? I'd like to insert full rows, so i'll pass as many values to this function as many columns are in the table. Thank You for your help!
