Thanks for the reply, Jason.
I agree, that WOULD make the arrays available WITHIN function_2.
However, it seems like they would be GLOBAL (seen outside of
function_2), which is what I am trying to avoid.
In a nutshell, does the assignment:
@{$_} = param($_) foreach @array;
introduce global or (locally) scoped variables?
