in reply to Slice of an array of hashes

You can only use arrow notation to extract a single scalar. Slice notation requires that you use the more general @{block-returning-hashref}{index-list} form. You should review the two rules for using references.

And no, you can't slice along any but the last dimension. dragonchild's map is the solution for what you want to do.
