"AP" . join "." - I understand what this is doing, but I don't understand from any documentation what the first argument to map is, generally speaking (everything before the first comma)
map this, that will do this to each element of that, with $_ being aliased to each of the elements
For example
my @in = 1 .. 5;
my @out = map $_ * 2, @in; # doubles each element of @in
@out = map $_ * 2, 1 .. 5; # same thing - any list will do

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
