There is a list construction operator .. which provides a list by values incremented by 1
@fred = (1..4); # is list (1,2,3,4) and
@fred = (2,3, $a..$b); # is a list determined by CURRENT (when used) values of integers $a and $b and starting with 2 and 3

@fred = @jeff; # sets two lists equal to each other while
@fred= (4,5,@jeff); # defines a list @fred with two more entries than @jeff
