NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::RequireBlockGrep

DESCRIPTION

The expression form of grep and map is awkward and hard to read. Use the block forms instead.

  @matches = grep  /pattern/,    @list;        #not ok
  @matches = grep { /pattern/ }  @list;        #ok

  @mapped = map  transform($_),    @list;      #not ok
  @mapped = map { transform($_) }  @list;      #ok
