I want to eliminate the ". " (periord) or "," (comma) from records

it. Does Perl have a way that I can match a string that from an array,
remove a character or characters?
For example say I have array @records that contain the following:
Myrecord1 Myrecord2 Myrecord3 Myrecord4 Myrecord5, inc.
Myrecord6, LP Myrecord7, LLC
I want to send this query out to persons in a .csv file but the
join(",", @record) statement that I am using causes the and extra cell
to be created at Myrecord5, inc. Myrecord6, LP Myrecord7, LLC.
How about?
tr/.,//d foreach @records;
