The way you print in the first example: <p><code>perl -e "@now = localtime(); for $now(@now) {print $now;}"</code><p> is tricky because the result looks rather like a scalar (a sort of big integer)</p> and does not show the "list form" we got from the context.
Something like : <code>
perl -e "@now = localtime(); print join(',',@now);"</code> should give a better "image".<p>More, unfortunately, the "scalar" output is a string of enumerated words <p>which looks more like a list ! <p>(first impression is important for a tutor ;-)
