in reply to Subroutine return value
my ($Results1, $Results2); &DoList($List, $Results1, $Results2, $tmp, $var);
If you want the subroutine to modify its parameters, you have to modify elements of @_ directly, not taking a copy:
sub DoList { my $List = $_[0]; # first element in @_ my ($tmp, $var) = @_[3,4]; $_[1] = `$List $tmp`; $_[2] = `$List $var`; }
See perlsub, in the DESCRIPTION section just after the first code examples: "... a function is free to do in-place modifications of @_ and change its caller's values".
