Perl Functions by Category ... Alphabetical Listing of Perl Functions ... In general, functions in Perl that serve as wrappers for system calls of the same name (like chown(2), fork(2), closedir(2), etc.) all return true when they succeed and undef otherwise, as is usually mentioned in the descriptions below.

Note that many people call Perl subroutines "functions". We prefer to use the term "functions" for those routines that are built in to Perl, and "subroutines" for code written by the Perl programmer. ...

In general, functions in Perl that serve as wrappers for system calls of the same name (like chown(2), fork(2), closedir(2), etc.) all return ... Here are Perl's functions (including things that look like functions, like some keywords and named operators) arranged by category. Some functions appear in more than one place.
