[grep] searches arrays or lists.
I don't think so. Do you have any reason to believe grep knows anything about arrays?
>perl -le"@a = qw( a b c d ); @b = grep { push(@a,'!') if !$i++; 1 } @
+a; print @b"
abcd
Contrast with for which does:
>perl -le"@a = qw( a b c d ); for (@a) { push(@a,'!') if !$i++; push @
+b, $_ } print @b"
abcd!

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
