#The chop function removes the last character of each word in an array.

#The chop function returns value is the character it chopped.

#The chomp function was introduced in Perl 5 to remove the last character in a scalar variable and the last character of each word in an array only if that character is the newline.
|

#Using chomp protects you from inadvertently removing some character other than the newline.

print "$name.\n\n";

chop($name);

print "$name has been chopped a little too much.\n";

print "What is your age? ";
