  my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({1..8});

  # $hash->random;

DESCRIPTION

This package provides methods for manipulating hash data.

INHERITS

This package inherits behaviors from:

Venus::Kind::Value

INTEGRATES

This package integrates behaviors from:

METHODS

This package provides the following methods:

all

  all(CodeRef $code) (Bool)

The all method returns true if the callback returns true for all of the elements.

Since 0.01

all example 1
  # given: synopsis;

  my $all = $hash->all(sub {
    $_ > 1
  });

  # 1
all example 2
  # given: synopsis;

  my $all = $hash->all(sub {
    my ($key, $value) = @_;

    $value > 1
  });

  # 1

any

  any(CodeRef $code) (Bool)

The any method returns true if the callback returns true for any of the elements.

Since 0.01

any example 1
  # given: synopsis;

  my $any = $hash->any(sub {
    $_ < 1
  });

  # 0
any example 2
  # given: synopsis;

    my ($key, $value) = @_;

    $value < 1
  });

  # 0

count

  count() (Int)

The count method returns the total number of keys defined.

Since 0.01

count example 1
  # given: synopsis;

  # 4

default

  default() (HashRef)

The default method returns the default value, i.e. {}.

Since 0.01

  # {}

delete

  delete(Str $key) (Any)

The delete method returns the value matching the key specified in the argument and returns the value.

Since 0.01

delete example 1
  # given: synopsis;

  my $delete = $hash->delete(1);

  # 2

each

  each(CodeRef $code) (ArrayRef)

The each method executes callback for each element in the hash passing the routine the key and value at the current position in the loop. This method can return a list of values in list-context.

Since 0.01

each example 1
  # given: synopsis;

  my $each = $hash->each(sub {
    [$_]
  });

  # [[2], [4], [6], [8]]
each example 2
  # given: synopsis;

  my $each = $hash->each(sub {

    [$key, $value]
  });

  # [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6], [7, 8]]

empty

  empty() (HashRef)

The empty method drops all elements from the hash.

Since 0.01

empty example 1
  # given: synopsis;

  my $exists = $hash->exists(0);

  # 0

find

  find(Str @data) (Any)

The find method traverses the data structure using the keys and indices provided, returning the value found or undef. In list-context, this method returns a tuple, i.e. the value found and boolean representing whether the match was successful.

Since 0.01

find example 1
  package main;

  use Venus::Hash;

  my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']});

  # ["baz"]
find example 4
  package main;

  use Venus::Hash;

  my $hash = Venus::Hash->new({'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'},'bar' => ['baz']});

  my ($find, $exists) = $hash->find('baz');

  # (undef, 0)

grep

  grep(CodeRef $code) (ArrayRef)

The grep method executes callback for each key/value pair in the hash passing the routine the key and value at the current position in the loop and returning a new hash reference containing the elements for which the argument evaluated true. This method can return a list of values in list-context.

Since 0.01

grep example 1
  # given: synopsis;

    my ($key, $value) = @_;

    $value >= 3
  });

  # [3..8]

iterator

  iterator() (CodeRef)

The iterator method returns a code reference which can be used to iterate over the hash. Each time the iterator is executed it will return the values of the next element in the hash until all elements have been seen, at which point the iterator will return an undefined value. This method can return a tuple with the key and value in list-context.

Since 0.01

iterator example 1
  # given: synopsis;

  my $iterator = $hash->iterator;

  # while (grep defined, my ($key, $value) = $iterator->()) {
  #   say $value; # 1
  # }

keys

Since 0.01

list example 1
  # given: synopsis;

  my $list = $hash->list;

  # 4
list example 2
  # given: synopsis;

  my @list = $hash->list;

  # (1..8)

map

  map(CodeRef $code) (ArrayRef)

The map method executes callback for each key/value in the hash passing the routine the value at the current position in the loop and returning a new hash reference containing the elements for which the argument returns a value or non-empty list. This method can return a list of values in list-context.

Since 0.01

map example 1
  # given: synopsis;

  my $map = $hash->map(sub {
    $_ * 2
  });

    my ($key, $value) = @_;

    [$key, ($value * 2)]
  });

  # [[1, 4], [3, 8], [5, 12], [7, 16]]

merge

  merge(HashRef @data) (HashRef)

The merge method returns a hash reference where the elements in the hash and the elements in the argument(s) are merged. This operation performs a deep merge and clones the datasets to ensure no side-effects. The merge behavior merges hash references only, all other data types are assigned with precendence given to the value being merged.

    $_ < 1
  });

  # 1
none example 2
  # given: synopsis;
