[LA.pm] push question

Hi. Having a little trouble with 'push' not doing what I'd hoped.

I'm reading an array from a file:

 @lines = <FILE>;

I want to append some additional data to the array, but it doesn't do what I 
expect.

Here's a test program that illustrates what I'm doing.

@lines={1,2,3};
push(@lines,4);
push(@lines,5);

foreach(@lines)
{ printf "%s-", $_
}

Here's the output:

% perl pushtest.pl
HASH(0x334ca0)-4-5

What I want is 1-2-3-4-5. How?

Thanks!

Robin
