NAME

Syntax::Feature::Gather - Provide a gather keyword

VERSION

version 1.002001

SYNOPSIS

use syntax 'gather';

my @list = gather {
   # Try to extract odd numbers and odd number names...
   for (@data) {
      if (/(one|three|five|seven|nine)$/) { take qq{'$_'} }
      elsif (/^\d+$/ && $_ %2)            { take $_ }
   }
   # But use the default set if there aren't any of either...
   take @defaults unless gathered;
}

or to use the stuff that Sub::Exporter gives us, try

# this is a silly idea
use syntax gather => {
  gather => { -as => 'bake' },
  take   => { -as => 'cake' },
};

my @vals = bake { cake (1...10) };

The full documentation for this module is in Syntax::Keyword::Gather. This is just a way to use the sugar that syntax gives us.
