[NCLUG] perl/programming question

[mike cullerton]

hey everyone,

   i'm trying to make sense of a large perl program and am unsure of how to
interpret some of the syntax. there is an object defined, split up into a
number of files, and one of the files contains the line

  $S->page_out(%blocks);

the definition for page_out begins

  sub page_out {
    my $S = shift;
    my %params = @_;

so, does %params now contain %blocks?

thanks,
mike
