Perl | Useful Hash functions

A hash is a set of key-value pairs. Perl stores elements of a hash such that it searches for the values based on its keys. Perl provides various functions to perform operations on Hashes, such as to return values of the hash, to delete elements from a hash, etc.
Example:

#!/usr/bin/perl

# Initializing hash
%hash1 = ('Welcome' => 10, 'to' => 20, 'Geeks' => 80);

# To delete the List passed as parameter
$deleted_element = delete($hash1{'to'});

# Printing elements of Hash
print "$hash1{'Welcome'}\n";
print "$hash1{'to'}\n";
print "$hash1{'Geeks'}\n";

# Printing the deleted element
print "Deleted element: $deleted_element";

Output:

10

80
Deleted element: 20
