C<split> is an operation that breaks up a string at certain marker
characters, and puts the resulting parts into an array. The first
argument to C<split> is the pattern to search for, and the second
argument is the string to search. The result is an array PMC.

    $P2 = words[2]
    say $P2              # 'brown'
