NAME

Tie::Judy - Perl extension for using a Judy array instead of a hash.

SYNOPSIS

use Tie::Judy;

tie %judy, 'Tie::Judy'; # %judy now reads and writes to a Judy array.

keys   %judy; # the keys here are in bit-wise SORTED order.
values %judy; # the values here are in the same order as the keys

0 + %judy; # returns the number of keys

# method to add lots of entries at once
(tied %judy)->insert( { key => 'value', ... } );
(tied %judy)->insert(   key => 'value', ...   );

# method to retrieve lots of values at once
(tied %judy)->retrieve( 'key1', 'key2', ... );

# method to remove lots of entries at once
(tied %judy)->remove( 'key1', 'key2', ... );

# OBJECT-ORIENTED INTERFACE
my $judy = Tie::Judy->new();

@keys   = $judy->keys;
@values = $judy->values;

$count  = $judy->count;

$judy->insert(   key => 'value', ...   );
$judy->insert( { key => 'value', ... } );

# retrieve and remove return arrays in list context, array refs in scalar context

$judy->retrieve( 'key1', 'key2', ... );

$judy->remove( 'key1', 'key2', ... );
