As usual, I'm a little confused here. First, what is a `global.FF'?
And why would it matter that `...@_' is not global when its content was
placed into a sub function?
Inside dispt {...the sub function @_...} `...@_' is alive and well
(I'm changing the name of the hash `%dispt' (inside sub dispt {...})to
%hash, it was probably a poor choice of names)
------- --------- ---=--- --------- --------
#!/blah/blah/perl
## out here in global country `...@_' is unknown
dispt($var,@ar);
sub dispt { ...
## @_ is alive here containing $var,@ar.
%hash = ( print N(@_ # `...@_' is dead here at the N(@_) call)
);
...}
which is also inside sub dispt {the sub function}. Where does global
come in?
