nysus has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I have the following:

pop ($fp->get_files));

which gives "Experimental pop on scalar is now forbidden, near "->get_files)"" error. But

pop @{$fp->get_files}

Doesn't work either and gives an error: "Can't use string ("25") as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" in use".

$f->get_files returns a list. I've tried other contortions but without success. Is there a way to do this in one line?
