Wiki Markup Perl has a large number of builtin functions, they are described on the {{perlfunc}} manpage \[ [Wall 2011|AA. Bibliography#Manpages]\]. Perl also has a handful of reserved keywords such as {{while}}; they are described on the {{perlsyn}} manpage \[ [Wall 2011|AA. Bibliography#Manpages]\].

Do not use an identifier for a subroutine that has been reserved for a builtin function or keyword.
