This is a true beginner's question, so bear with me. I have an array of
numbers. Is there a function to tell me which is larger (or smaller?)

I assume that you mean numerically larger or smaller?

perldoc List::Util

Look for the min() and max() functions.


Also,
how do I search with perldoc for a function when I don't know the name?

perldoc perlfunc
