No, that’s what you get from an array in scalar context. Lists
and arrays are not the same.

    $ perl -le'@_=("a"..."z"); print $_=@_; print $_=@_[0..$#_]'
    26
    z

(I didn’t just say `$_=("a".."z")` because that puts the
right-hand side in scalar context, where the `..` operator is
a flip-flop, not a range.)
