NAME

Data::Object::Code

ABSTRACT

Code Class for Perl 5

SYNOPSIS

  package main;

  use Data::Object::Code;

  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { $_[0] + 1 });

DESCRIPTION

This package provides methods for manipulating code data.

INHERITS

This package inherits behaviors from:

Data::Object::Kind

INTEGRATES

This package integrates behaviors from:

Data::Object::Role::Dumpable

Data::Object::Role::Proxyable

Data::Object::Role::Throwable

LIBRARIES

This package uses type constraints from:

Data::Object::Types

METHODS

This package implements the following methods:

call

  call(Any $arg1) : Any

The call method executes and returns the result of the code.

call example #1
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { ($_[0] // 0) + 1 });

  $code->call; # 1
call example #2
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { ($_[0] // 0) + 1 });

  $code->call(0); # 1
call example #3
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { ($_[0] // 0) + 1 });

  $code->call(1); # 2
call example #4
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { ($_[0] // 0) + 1 });

  $code->call(2); # 3

compose

  compose(CodeRef $arg1, Any $arg2) : CodeLike

The compose method creates a code reference which executes the first argument (another code reference) using the result from executing the code as it's argument, and returns a code reference which executes the created code reference passing it the remaining arguments when executed.

compose example #1
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { [@_] });

  $code->compose($code, 1,2,3);

  # $code->(4,5,6); # [[1,2,3,4,5,6]]

conjoin

  conjoin(CodeRef $arg1) : CodeLike

The conjoin method creates a code reference which execute the code and the argument in a logical AND operation having the code as the lvalue and the argument as the rvalue.

conjoin example #1
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { $_[0] % 2 });

  $code = $code->conjoin(sub { 1 });

  # $code->(0); # 0
  # $code->(1); # 1
  # $code->(2); # 0
  # $code->(3); # 1
  # $code->(4); # 0

curry

  curry(CodeRef $arg1) : CodeLike

The curry method returns a code reference which executes the code passing it the arguments and any additional parameters when executed.

curry example #1
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { [@_] });

  $code = $code->curry(1,2,3);

  # $code->(4,5,6); # [1,2,3,4,5,6]

defined

  defined() : Num

The defined method returns true if the object represents a value that meets the criteria for being defined, otherwise it returns false.

defined example #1
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new;

  $code->defined; # 1

disjoin

  disjoin(CodeRef $arg1) : CodeRef

The disjoin method creates a code reference which execute the code and the argument in a logical OR operation having the code as the lvalue and the argument as the rvalue.

disjoin example #1
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { $_[0] % 2 });

  $code = $code->disjoin(sub { -1 });

  # $code->(0); # -1
  # $code->(1); #  1
  # $code->(2); # -1
  # $code->(3); #  1
  # $code->(4); # -1

next

  next(Any $arg1) : Any

The next method is an alias to the call method. The naming is especially useful (i.e. helps with readability) when used with closure-based iterators.

next example #1
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { $_[0] * 2 });

  $code->next(72); # 144

rcurry

  rcurry(Any $arg1) : CodeLike

The rcurry method returns a code reference which executes the code passing it the any additional parameters and any arguments when executed.

rcurry example #1
  my $code = Data::Object::Code->new(sub { [@_] });

  $code = $code->rcurry(1,2,3);

  # $code->(4,5,6); # [4,5,6,1,2,3]
