# NAME

pop - remove the last element from an array and return it

# SYNOPSIS

pop ARRAY

pop

# DESCRIPTION

Pops and returns the last value of the array, shortening the array by one element. Has an effect similar to

        $ARRAY[$#ARRAY--]

If there are no elements in the array, returns the undefined value (although this may happen at other times as well). If ARRAY is omitted, pops the `@ARGV` array in the main program, and the `@_` array in subroutines, just like `shift`.
