perl hash question

Below is one article I was reading and I don't understand the



Code:
$seen{$_} = 1

Can someone explain this in easier terms plesae?

We can also take advantage of the uniqueness property of hash keys to filter out duplicates from a list. For example, suppose we need to examine lines of a file, generating an output that consists of only one line even if the line is duplicated. Easy enough:

Code:
  %seen = ();
  while (<>) {
    $seen{$_} = 1;
  }
  foreach (sort keys %seen) {
    print;
  }
