# untie

## Synopsis

```perl
untie %hash;
untie @array;
untie $scalar;
```

## Description

Removes the tie binding from a variable, restoring normal access.

Breaks the association between a variable and its tie class
established by `tie`. Subsequent accesses to the variable bypass
the `FETCH`/`STORE` methods and operate on the variable directly.
Returns true on success.

**Implementation status:** Stub. Always returns 1 (success) since
tie is not yet implemented.
