initialising number of vars in perl

[Gaurav Priyolkar <gauravp@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

How do I assign an initial value to a number of scalar variables?

my ($a, $b, $c, $n ) = 'NULL';

doesn't work 'coz left side is list context.

my $a, $b, $c, $n = 'NULL'

assigns 'NULL' only to $n.

Right now I have an array on right side in list context with lots of
'NULL's, but I guess there must be a cleaner way.
