undef(EXPR)
undef EXPR
undef Undefines the value of EXPR, which must be an
lvalue. Use only on a scalar value, an entire
array, or a subroutine name (using &). (Undef will
probably not do what you expect on most predefined
variables or dbm array values.) Always returns the
undefined value. You can omit the EXPR, in which
case nothing is undefined, but you still get an
undefined value that you could, for instance, return
from a subroutine. Examples:
undef $foo;
undef $bar{'blurfl'};
undef @ary;
undef %assoc;
undef &mysub;
return (wantarray ? () : undef) if $they_blew_it;
