Thanks,Uri
and Shawn, for all the information.
I knew perl is written in C, but I am still interested in
checking the C source for some builtin function directly. Is there any good way
to go?

all builtin functions are in c and not perl so you will not learn any
perl from examining them. and you can always get the perl source from
perl.org or from your linux distro (look for a source or developer
package vs the regular one).
