And that's about it for this tutorial. Over the preceding few pages, I
introduced you to the following special variables in Perl:

$_ (the default variable)

$/ (the input record separator)

$\ (the output record separator)

$, (the output field separator)

@ARGV (the command-line argument array)

@_ (the subroutine argument array)

@INC (the include path array)

%ENV (the environment variable array)

$? and $! (the last error code)

$@ (the last error in an eval() block)

$<, $>, $) and $( (the real and effective UID/GIDs)

$. (the line number of an input file)

$ARGV (the name of an input file)

$0 (the name of the current script)

$$ (the process ID of the current script)

$[ (the Perl version number)

Of course, these are just some of the more commonly-used creatures you'll
encounter in your travels through the Perl universe. Perl has a whole bunch
more of these special variables which have not been discussed here - you
can find them all in the "perlvar" manual page. Take a look for yourself,
and until we meet again...stay healthy!
