Venus::Hash - Hash Class

ABSTRACT

Hash Class for Perl 5

SYNOPSIS

package main;

use Venus::Hash;

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:

Venus::Role::Mappable

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

  $value < 1
});

# 0

call

call(Str $iterable, Str $method) (Any)

The call method executes the given method (named using the first argument) which performs an iteration (i.e. takes a callback) and calls the method (named using the second argument) on the object (or value) and returns the result of the iterable method.

Since 1.02

call example 1
# given: synopsis

package main;

my $call = $hash->call('map', 'incr');

# ['1', 3, '3', 5, '5', 7, '7', 9]
call example 2
# given: synopsis

package main;

my $call = $hash->call('grep', 'gt', 4);

# [5..8]

cast

cast(Str $kind) (Object | Undef)

The cast method converts "value" objects between different "value" object types, based on the name of the type provided. This method will return undef if the invocant is not a Venus::Kind::Value.

Since 0.08
