my $foo = 'bar'; print <<END; 1. \$foo is $foo END print <<"END"; 2. \$foo is $foo END print <<'END'; 3. \$foo is $foo END print <<`END`; echo 4. \$foo is $foo END [download] results in `1. $foo is bar 2. $foo is bar 3. \$foo is $foo 4. $foo is bar` [download] See perlop#Quote-and-Quote-like-Operators.
