Here is some sample code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
sub funcname {
my ($array1, $array2, $fh, $string) = @_;
print $fh "the string is $string\n";
print $fh "\narray1:\n";
for my $i (0 .. $#$array1) {
print "\t$i $array1->[$i]\n";
}
print "\narray2: ", join(", ", @$array2), "\n";
}
my $str = "a string";
my @a1 = qw/zero one two three four/;
my @a2 = 1 .. 10;
funcname(\...@a1, \...@a2, \*STDOUT, $str);
