Always start your code with:
use warnings;
use strict;
my %record = r();
This line won't work. r() returns a reference (think pointer if you
used C) to a hash. You need a scalar to store it.
$record = r();
Or dereference the reference returned from the sub:
my %record = %{ r() };
$record{fieldA}{fieldB} = value...
This requires a hash, unlike the above line that used a hash. You can
create a hash and assign its reference to a scalar like so:
$ref = \%hash;
Or copy the hash to an anonymous hash and assign that reference:
$ref = { %hash };
push @records, %record
I think you want an array of references, not of hashed themselves.
Actually, the hash is converted to a list and that list is pushed onto
the array.
