That would probably be better as: 

my ( $r1, $c1, @mat1 ) = readmatrix( $first );

...

sub readmatrix {
    my ( $file ) = @_;
    open my $IN, '<', $file or die "can't open file: $!\n";
    my @AoA;
    while ( <$IN> ) {
        push @AoA, [ split ];
    }
    return $., scalar @{ $AoA[ -1 ] }, @AoA;
}
