It's not entirely clear to me what each of the variables in your example represent, but
Code:
grep($pattern,@myarr)

looks through @myarr for occurrences of $pattern which seems at odds with your description of

If the line contains ... any element from a previously defined array

NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitBooleanGrep - Use "List::MoreUtils::any" instead of "grep" in boolean context. AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. DESCRIPTION
Using "grep" in boolean context is a common idiom for checking if any elements in a list match a condition. This works because boolean context is a subset of scalar context, and grep returns the number of matches in scalar context. A non-zero number of matches means a match. But consider the case of a long array where the first element is a match. Boolean "grep" still checks all of the rest of the elements needlessly. Instead, a better solution is to use the "any" function from List::MoreUtils, which short-circuits after the first successful match to save time. CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options. CAVEATS
The algorithm for detecting boolean context takes a LOT of shortcuts. There are lots of known false negatives. But, I was conservative in writing this, so I hope there are no false positives. AUTHOR
