NAME

List::Rubyish - Array iterator like the Ruby

SYNOPSIS


            

              
              
my $array_ref = [
  {name => 'jkondo'},
  {name => 'cinnamon'}
];
my $list = List::Rubyish->new($array_ref);
$list->size;              #=> 2
my $first = $list->shift; #=> {name => 'jkondo'}
$list->push($first);      #=> [{name => 'cinnamon'}, {name => 'jkondo'}];
# List::Rubyish provides much more useful methods. For more
# details, see the sections below.

OVERVIEW

DBIx::MoCo::List is very useful, However installation is complex.

List::Rubyish was made in order to enable use of DBIx::MoCo::List independently.

METHODS

dump ()

Dump the content of $self using Data::Dumper.

push ( @array )
unshift ( @array )

Sets the argument into $self, a refernce to an array blessed by List::Rubyish, like the same name functions provided by Perl core, then returns a List::Rubyish object.


            

              
              
my $list = List::Rubyish->new([qw(1 2 3)]);
$list->push(4, 5); #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
$list->unshift(0); #=> [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
concat ( \@array )
prepend ( \@array )

They're almost the same as push()/unshift() described above except that the argument shoud be a reference to an array.


            

              
              
my $list = List::Rubyish->new([1, 2, 3]);
$list->concat([4, 5]); #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
$list->prepend([0]);   #=> [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
shift ()
pop ()

Pulls out the first/last element from $self, a refernce to an array blessed by List::Rubyish, then returns it like the same name functions in Perl core.


            

              
              
$list = List::Rubyish->new([1, 2, 3]);
$list->shift; #=> 1
$list->pop;   #=> 3
$list->dump   #=> [2]
first ()
last ()

Returns the first/last element of $self, a refernce to an array blessed by List::Rubyish. These methods aren't destructive contrary to shift()/pop() method.


            

              
              
$list = List::Rubyish->new([1, 2, 3]);
$list->first; #=> 1
$list->last;  #=> 3
$list->dump   #=> [1, 2, 3]
slice ( $start, $end )

Returns the elements whose indexes are between $start and $end as a List::Rubyish object.


            

              
              
$list = List::Rubyish->new([qw(1 2 3 4)]);
$list->slice(1, 2) #=> [2, 3]
zip ( \@array1, \@array2, ... )

Bundles up the elements in each arguments into an array or a List::Rubyish object along with the context.


            

              
              
my $list = List::Rubyish->new([1, 2, 3]);
$list->zip([4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9]);
    #=> [[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8], [3, 6, 9]]
# When the numbers of each list are different...
$list = List::Rubyish->new([1, 2, 3]);
$list->zip([4, 5], [7, 8, 9]);
    #=> [[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8], [3, undef, 9]]
my $list   = List::Rubyish->new([1, 2]);
$list->zip([4, 5], [7, 8, 9]);
    #=> [[1, 4, 7], [2, 5, 8]]
delete ( $value, $code )

Deletes the same values as $value in $self, a refernce to an array blessed by List::Rubyish, and returns the value if found. If the value is not found in $self and $code is passed in, the code is executed using the value as an argument to find the value to be deleted.


            

              
              
$list = List::Rubyish->new([1, 2, 3, 2, 1]);
