Functions
Perl also provides quite a few functions that operate on arrays. As you
learn more and more Perl, you will see lots of interesting functions
that work with arrays.
Now, we'll discuss a few of these functions that work on arrays:
push, pop, shift, and unshift.
The names shift and unshift are an artifact of the
Unix shells that used them to "shift around" incoming arguments.
