If there is a syntax error or runtime error, or a C<die> statement is
-executed, an undefined value is returned by C<eval>, and C<$@> is set to the
+executed, C<eval> returns an undefined value in scalar context
+or an empty list in list context, and C<$@> is set to the
error message. If there was no error, C<$@> is guaranteed to be a null
string. Beware that using C<eval> neither silences perl from printing
warnings to STDERR, nor does it stuff the text of warning messages into C<$@>.
