As in bash and other programming. The is a way of looping through a list, using, while, for, & foreach. for and foreach is the same thing.

#!/usr/bin/perl
@stars = qw( hillary eva jennifer );
foreach $star (@stars) {
  $star = "\t$star";       
  $star .= "\n";           
}
print "The stars are:\n", @stars;

The qw provides a elements to the array @stars

Run the script.

$ ./myperl5
The stars are:
	hillary
	eva
	jennifer
