This package integrates behaviors from:
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 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $all = $array->all(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; $value > 0; }); # 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 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $any = $array->any(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; $value > 4; });
count
count() (Int)
The count method returns the number of elements within the array.
Since 0.01
default
default() (ArrayRef)
The default method returns the default value, i.e. []
.
Since 0.01
delete
delete(Int $index) (Any)
The delete method returns the value of the element at the index specified after removing it from the array.
Since 0.01
each
each(CodeRef $code) (ArrayRef)
The each method executes a callback for each element in the array passing the index and value as arguments. This method can return a list of values in list-context.
Since 0.01
- each example 1
-
# given: synopsis; my $each = $array->each(sub { [$_] }); # [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9]]
- each example 2
-
# given: synopsis; my $each = $array->each(sub { my ($key, $value) = @_; [$key, $value] }); # [ # [0, 1], # [1, 2], # [2, 3], # [3, 4], # [4, 5], # [5, 6], # [6, 7], # [7, 8], # [8, 9], # ]
empty
empty() (Array)
The empty method drops all elements from the array.
Since 0.01
- empty example 1
-
# given: synopsis; my $empty = $array->empty; # bless({ value => [] }, "Venus::Array")
exists
exists(Int $index) (Bool)
The exists method returns true if the element at the index specified exists, otherwise it returns false.
Since 0.01
find
find(Str @keys) (Any)
The find method traverses the data structure using the keys and indices provided, returning the value found or undef. In list-context, this method returns a tuple, i.e. the value found and boolean representing whether the match was successful.
Since 0.01
- find example 1
-
package main; use Venus::Array; my $array = Venus::Array->new([{'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'}}, 'bar', ['baz']]); my $find = $array->find(0, 'foo'); # { bar => "baz" }
- find example 2
-
package main; use Venus::Array; my $array = Venus::Array->new([{'foo' => {'bar' => 'baz'}}, 'bar', ['baz']]); my $find = $array->find(0, 'foo', 'bar'); # "baz"
- find example 3

first() (Any)
The first method returns the value of the first element.
Since 0.01
grep
grep(CodeRef $code) (ArrayRef)

iterator() (CodeRef)
The iterator method returns a code reference which can be used to iterate over the array. Each time the iterator is executed it will return the next element in the array until all elements have been seen, at which point the iterator will return an undefined value. This method can return a tuple with the key and value in list-context.
Since 0.01

# given: synopsis; my $iterator = $array->iterator; # sub { ... } # while (grep defined, my ($key, $value) = $iterator->()) { # say $value; # 1 # }
join
join(Str $seperator) (Str)
The join method returns a string consisting of all the elements in the array joined by the join-string specified by the argument. Note: If the argument is omitted, an empty string will be used as the join-string.

keyed
keyed(Str @keys) (HashRef)
The keyed method returns a hash reference where the arguments become the keys, and the elements of the array become the values.
Since 0.01
- keyed example 1

list
list() (Any)
The list method returns a shallow copy of the underlying array reference as an array reference.
Since 0.01
map
map(CodeRef $code) (ArrayRef)
The map method iterates over each element in the array, executing the code reference supplied in the argument, passing the routine the value at the current position in the loop and returning a new array reference containing the elements for which the argument returns a value or non-empty list. This method can return a list of values in list-context.
