Wow, I wasn't paying attention to what I was thinking there. Obviously it points to specific elements, because the subscripts used to create a slice don't have to be sequential or even in order. I (theoretically) knew that... > print @a; # 0 1 2 3 4 5 > print @$r_slice; # 0 1 2 3 > splice @a, 2, 0, 6; # 0 1 6 2 3 4 5 print @$r_slice; # 0 1 2 3 splice @a, 1, 1, 7; # 0 7 6 2 3 4 5 print @$r_slice; # 0 7 2 3 Am I now thinking clearly?
