Do you want the existing members to each become zero, or do you want to
delete them all?

See also `perldoc -q array`.

Unlike arrays in the C programming language, Perl arrays do
not need to be zero-ed out to clear them; just undefine the array:

undef @myarray;

$_ = 0 for @array;

Unless by "Zero'ing out an array" you mean setting each element to 0 (as
noted in this thread), or have it hold an empty list.
