@list = (1) x 15;
If parentheses did create lists, what would you expect this code to do?
my $x = ( 1 + 2 ) * 3;
I would expect the parens to do grouping. I didn't assume that parens always create lists (which they don't), but that they do - sometimes:
$_ = "foo bar baz";
$middle = (split)[1];
Well, as everywhere with perl - contetxt matters...
--shmem
update: replaced nonsensical $_ = qw(foo bar baz) with $_ = "foo bar baz". Common typo ;)
