Could someone please direct me to some web pages where I can go

example is deprecated or not. I once saw:
@files = <$path_to_directory>
on the web and found it worked perfectly, then kept using this way of
writing my perl script. But I was told yesterday such a script is
deprecated now.
AFAIK that is not deprecated.
Deprecated or not, personally I always use opendir() and readdir().
opendir my $dir, $path_to_directory or die $!;
print "$_\n" for grep !/^\./, readdir $dir;
closedir $dir;
It always 'works', and it's portable.
