hi,
        You can simulate multi-dimensional arrays using references.
For information about references see 'perlreftut' and 'perlref' manpages.

eg. @array = (
                [ "hello","world"];
                [ "quick","brown"];
             );
is a two dimentional array.
if you want to access hello  $array[0]->[0]
of course threre are other ways.
