People of the Perl,
thanks for the info....I am familiar with perls subroutines so I will use
these and this name instead of functions. Also, my intention was to avoid
the if , then ,elif, then constructs, mentioned by Dan, for certain
situations which is why I asked about cases so I will read the perldoc.
thanks

Ask the FAQ, run
perldoc -q "case statement"

Subroutines are both what some languages call procedures and
functions.
