in thread Passing three arrays to a subroutine

But why even use prototypes in the sub? 
$my_exp = myCurveX(\@my_arx,\@my_ary,\@my_arz,$my_v1,$my_v2);

sub myCurveX(){
 my ($arrayref1, $arrayref2,$arrayref3, $v1, $v2) = @_;

You say "why even use prototypes" and then you use a prototype that says accept zero arguments, but the next line says to accept five arguments?

    Well you have to read in values into the sub somehow, unless you use global variables. How else would he do it?

      You missed the point. The problem isn't that you accept five arguments; the problem is that you use a prototype that says "accept zero arguments". There's also the matter that you use a prototype after saying there's no reason to use prototypes here.
