[aklug] slightly OT: Perl Net::LDAP

Essentially, my question is, in perl, what is the difference between
saying:

$array = ['one' => 1, 'two' => 2];

and

$array = {'one' => 1, 'two' => 2};

I am trying to write an ldap add function in perl. Something in the
documentation puzzles me:
http://search.cpan.org/~gbarr/perl-ldap-0.33/lib/Net/LDAP.pod

That page shows the second parameter to the add function being a
anonymous array ref created by using brackets, '[ ... ]'.

But then it appears to use string keys. Doesn't that make it a hash or
an associative array? Therefore, shouldn't it be instantiated with
braces, "{ ... }"?
