You probably think YAML stands for "Yet Another Markup Language". It
aint! YAML is really a data serialization language. But if you want
to think of it as a markup, thats OK with me. A lot of people try
to use XML as a serialization format.

"YAML" is catchy and fun to say. Try it. "YAML, YAML, YAML!!!"
...

# Dump the Perl data structures back into YAML.
print Dump($string, $arrayref, $hashref);

# YAML::Dump is used the same way youd use Data::Dumper::Dumper
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper($string, $arrayref, $hashref);

The YAML.pm module implements a YAML Loader and Dumper based on the YAML 1.0 specification. http://www.yaml.org/spec/

YAML is a generic data serialization language that is optimized for human readability. It can be used to express the data structures of most modern programming languages. (Including Perl!!!)

For information on the YAML syntax, please refer to the YAML specification.
