Paket: libautobox-core-perl (1.33-2)

module providing automatic methods for core functions

This module provides automatic methods which wrap perl's built-in functions for minipulating numbers, strings, arrays, hashes, and code references. It can be handy to use built-in functions as methods to avoid messy dereferencing syntaxes and parentheses pile ups.

autobox::Core is what you'd call a stub module. It is merely glue, presenting existing functions with a new interface. Most of the methods read like sub hex ($) { hex($_[0]) }. Besides built-ins that operate on hashes, arrays, scalars, and code references, some Perl 6-ish things were thrown in, and some keywords like foreach have been turned into methods.
