NAME

PerlX::Let - Syntactic sugar for lexical constants

VERSION

version v0.1.0

SYNOPSIS

use PerlX::Let;

let $x = 1,
    $y = "string" {

    if ( ($a->($y} - $x) > ($b->{$y} + $x) )
    {
      something( $y, $x );
    }

}

DESCRIPTION

The code

let $var = "thing" { ... }

is shorthand for

{
   use Const::Fast;
   const my $var => "thing";

   ...
}

KNOWN ISSUES

This is an experimental version.

The parsing of assignments is rudimentary, and may fail when assigning to another variable or the result of a function.
