An array is a list object in which all elements are indexed.
A list is the context to which arrays belong. An list does not have to be
referenced through an array and may be used as part of many functions.
@array = (item1, item2, item3);
# a list of items are assigned to an array.
print $item1,$item2,$item3,"\n";
#print uses a list as its arguments

Thank you for your mail.
then can u tell me, what does the following line mean (this is from perl
style)
"To get the last element in a list or array, use $array[-1] instead of
$array[$#array]. The former works on both lists and arrays, but the latter
does not."
Thank you
