Difference between Lists and Arrays in Perl

[Yen]

In Perl, the lists and arrays are used interchageably, Is there any difference between them?

[Yashti]

In Perl, the two terms are often used as if they're interchangeable. But, to be accurate, the list is the data, and the array is the variable. You can have a list value that isn't in an array, but every array variable holds a list (although that list may be empty).
