## values

    values %hash

Returns a list consisting of all the values of the named hash. The values are returned in an apparently random order, but it is the same order as either the `keys` or `each` function would produce on the same hash. To sort the hash by its values, see the example under `keys`. Note that using `values` on a hash that is bound to a very large DBM file is going to produce a very large list, causing you to have a very large process, and leaving you in a bind. You might prefer to use the `each` function, which will iterate over the hash entries one by one without reading them all into a single list.
