Perl scalar annotations

[lukechampine]

Interesting. I don't get an error, and both versions produce the same result. I'm using Perl v5.22.1. Can you provide more information about how to reproduce the error?

[makafre]

To reproduce it just add the following two lines:

use warnings;
use strict;

..since they were not there Perl loosely accepted the code without complaining :)
Here are the errors when present:

perl -c ./test.pl
Scalar value @pair[1] better written as $pair[1] at ./test.pl line 20.
Scalar value @pair[0] better written as $pair[0] at ./test.pl line 20.
Scalar value @Hashes[0] better written as $hashes[0] at ./test.pl line 24.
Global symbol "$segment" requires explicit package name at ./test.pl line 12.
Global symbol "$segment" requires explicit package name at ./test.pl line 13.
./test.pl had compilation errors.

Cheers
