If you turned these in as-is, I'd be curious to know what grade you got on the assignment. Here would be my answers:

1. Write a subroutine (&evens) that recieves an array of numbers and returns an array containing only even numbers. Give an example of calling the subroutine.

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use Modern::Perl;

sub evens {
    return grep { ! ($_ % 2) } @_;
}
say for evens(1..10);

2. Write a subroutine(&squares) that recieves an array of numbers and squares each number in the array. Note: nothing is returned.

Since the subroutine is supposed to take an array but return nothing, I assume it is to change the array in place. So I'll pass the array as a reference:

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use Modern::Perl;

sub squares {
    my $n = shift;
    $_ *= $_ for @$n;
}

my @nums = (1..10);
squares(\@nums);
say for @nums;

3. Write a subroutine(&huge) that returns true if the number sent is greater than 1,000,000 or false(look up what is true and false). Show an example of calling the function.

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use Modern::Perl;

sub huge {
    my $n = shift;
    return 1 if $n and $n > 1_000_000;
    return ! $n; # reverse the t/f for all other cases
}

for (-1,0,1,100,1_000_000, 1_000_001){
    my $t = huge($_) ? 'true' : 'false';
    say "$_ $t";
}
