in thread Is this a bug, or expected behavior?

I would expect $a->[1, 2, 3, 4] to be the same as $a->[4], because the index is being evaluated in a scalar context, which means the comma is a "comma operator" (evaluate left expression, discard it, evaluate right expression). Correct?

    Yes, rigthly so.

    When I first checked this, I must have made a mistake, because it behaves exactly as you indicate.
