Tonight I am pretty free, so started to read something about perl.

#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Hello World! \n";

$a = 3;

print "$a  \n";

@food = {"apples", "pears", "eels"};

@music = {"whistel", "flute"};

@moremusic = {"organ", @music, "harp"};

push(@food, "eggs");

print @food;
print "@food";

I am so CONFUSED why the output is:
Hello World!
3
HASH(0x19ec998)eggsHASH(0x19ec998) eggs

print @food

is wrong? or something wrong with my box.

$ perl --version

This is perl 5, version 14, subversion 2 (v5.14.2) built for
x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi
