No. ' is the name of the variable, and because you don't declare it, it is global, and because the current package is main, they are &main::' and @main::' respectively `$ perl -le"print \@', \@{qq!main::'!}" ARRAY(0x979ff4)ARRAY(0x979ff4) $ perl -le"print &'" Undefined subroutine &main::' called at -e line 1.` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
