Read perlref.
$x, $y, and $z are references to arrays. you can
use them as arrays with caution. If you use them as
@$x, @$y, and @$z any changes you make will affect
the original arrays.
You can copy them if you need to temporarily
change their values:
sub mysub {
my( $x, $y, $z ) = @_;
my @dup_x = @$x;
# change @dup_x
I can't really help you more than that without
knowing what you are trying to do in the sub.

BTW, I used @x, @y, @z because $a and $b are special.
