in thread Is there an isArray() in Perl?

UNIVERSAL is available even without use'ing it, so the previous code snippet can be rewritten as: 
foreach $item (@array) {
  if (UNIVERSAL::isa($item, 'ARRAY')) {
    print "We've got an array!!\n";
  }
}

    Correct; the only point of use'ing UNIVERSAL is to import the function(s)...which he does.
