Every time I make a half-hearted attempt to learn enough Perl syntax to get
started, I keep running into the differences between $foo, %foo and @foo
and dire warnings about what happens if you use the wrong sigil, and then I
get confused. Is there a good discussion of how names and references work
in Perl, equivalent to Ned's discussion?
