Set::Array allows you to create arrays as objects and use OO-style methods on
|
||
|
|
them. Many convenient methods are provided here that appear in the FAQ's, the
|
||
|
|
Perl Cookbook or posts from comp.lang.perl.misc. In addition, there are Set
|
||
|
|
methods with corresponding (overloaded) operators for the purpose of Set
|
||
|
|
comparison, i.e. +, ==, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The purpose is to provide built-in methods for operations that people are
|
||
|
|
always asking how to do, and which already exist in languages like Ruby. This
|
||
|
|
should (hopefully) improve code readability and/or maintainability. The other
|
||
|
|
advantage to this module is method-chaining by which any number of methods may
|
||
|
|
be called on a single object in a single statement.
