No it isn't. From 'perldoc -f chop':

    chop    Chops off the last character of a string and
            returns the character chopped.

And you don't want a '$' in front of 'chop'.
(Why didn't you try it out yourself if you were not sure ;-)

Sudarsan Raghavan already provided the correct solution (s/\s+$//).
