Re: push coomand on hash variables

ohhh ok.
Thanks for the help

But there is an XML example using XML::Twig in which
the author has defined the hash as
my $hash={   'abc'=>'def'.
                     'ghi'=>'jkl',
                     'mnp'=>'pqr'
                  }

I thought it is a reference to a hash.

Is it so? Can we directly define reference variables like this?
