Hello,
I usually use my ($arg1, $arg2) = @_;
to get the arguments parsed to a subroutine.

I want this to be smarter. Sometimes I want to pass $start, $end to
the sub, sometimes I want to pass $start, $count to the sub.

but in this case my ($arg1, $arg2) = @_;  will get confused, it
doesn't know if the argument is meant to be $end or to be $count.

does subroutine have some  mechanism like getopt::long and it can know
what kind of arguments are passed in?

Thank you in advance for pointers,
Jim
