devel/p5-Set-Array 0.30nb13 NetBSD

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.
