If this is wrong, I would be pleased to be corrected.

    =head2 Regular Expression Special Variables

    The following special variables related to pattern matching are visible
    throughout the dynamic scope in which the pattern match occurred.  In other
    words, they behave as though they were declared with C<local>, so you
    needn’t declare them that way yourself.  See Chapter 5, Pattern Matching.

      $I<digits>

      $& ($MATCH)
      $' ($POSTMATCH)
      $` ($PREMATCH)

      ${^MATCH}
      ${^POSTMATCH}
      ${^PREMATCH}

      $+ ($LAST_PAREN_MATCH)
      %+ (%LAST_PAREN_MATCH)
      @+ (@LAST_MATCH_END)

      @-
      %-

      $^R ($LAST_REGEXP_CODE_RESULT)
      $^N ($LAST_SUBMATCH_RESULT)
