Data::Object::Array

ABSTRACT

Data-Object Array Class

SYNOPSIS

  use Data::Object::Array;

  my $array = Data::Object::Array->new([1..9]);

DESCRIPTION

Data::Object::Array provides routines for operating on Perl 5 array references. Array methods work on array references. Users of these methods should be aware of the methods that modify the array reference itself as opposed to returning a new array reference. Unless stated, it may be safe to assume that the following methods copy, modify and return new array references based on their function.

METHODS

This package implements the following methods.

all

  all(CodeRef $arg1, Any @args) : NumObject

The all method returns true if all of the elements in the array meet the criteria set by the operand and rvalue. This method returns a Data::Object::Number object.

all example

  # given [2..5]

  $array->all(fun ($value, @args) {
    $value > 1; # 1, true
  });

  $array->all(fun ($value, @args) {
    $value > 3; # 0; false
  });

any

  any(CodeRef $arg1, Any @args) : NumObject

The any method returns true if any of the elements in the array meet the criteria set by the operand and rvalue. This method returns a Data::Object::Number object.

any example

  # given [2..5]

  $array->any(fun ($value) {
    $value > 5; # 0; false
  });

  $array->any(fun ($value) {
    $value > 3; # 1; true
  });

clear

  clear() : Object

The clear method is an alias to the empty method. This method returns a Data::Object::Undef object. This method is an alias to the empty method. Note: This method modifies the array.
