I suspect one of the tutorials that Google or Perl.org points to has
something in it that needs correcting.

Probably more than one thing. I would suggest reading the following
books to learn Perl and to only use random tutorials on the Internet
as starting points to learn more by reading perldoc.
1. The Llama -- Learning Perl (read cover to cover)
2. The Staghound? -- Perl Best Practices (read cover to cover)
3. The Camel -- Programming Perl (read cover to cover eventually, but
focus on areas where you have questions)
4. The Panther -- Advanced Perl Programming (read cover to cover)
All told that is about $169.80 plus tax. Of course, since they are
all O'Reilly books, you can just sign up for Safari Books for about
$20 a month and read them online.
