There are many ways of looking for what you need in the FAQ list. What I
gave you is a short-cut that one figures out after finding the entry for
the first time.

The first time I found that entry was by reading through perlfaq4:

DESCRIPTION
    This section of the FAQ answers questions related to manipulating
    numbers, dates, strings, arrays, hashes, and miscellaneous data
    issues.

Hmmmm .. You would have found the answer had you looked at the table of
contents and then read perlfaq4.
