Hi,

I'm not entirely sure that I understand your requirements but this
might get you started.

You want to scope your variables with the keyword `my`, so

#!/path/to/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
...
foreach my $colour (qw/red green yellow blue/) {
     print "$var\n"
}

red
green
yellow
blue

The variable $colour will be changed with each iteration of the loop.
Have a look at
http://perldoc.perl.org/perlsyn.html#Foreach-Loops

for more details.
HTH,
Dp.
