lets say you have a script called 'jerk.pl' and then when you run the script you type this at the command line:
jerk.pl loser hoser
$ARGV[0] would be loser
$ARGV[1] would be hoser
basically it is an array that stores the arguments you pass to the script...that is the short version -

If you want multiple words on one element of the array, then you need to put them in quotes:
jerk.pl "loser loser" "hoser"
$ARGV[0] would be "loser loser"
$ARGV[1] would be "hoser"
