Does Perl have a nuke() operator? If you want to clear out the hash completely then: %hash = (); Will remove all the keys and values from the hash. This will also work with a hash of hashes. Or if you need to reinitialize it you can just assign the key/value pairs to the hash: %hash = ( newkey1 => 'newval1', newkey2 => 'newval2' ); Which will assign the new list, replacing anything that was in there before.
