=head1 NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitVoidMap
=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<map> and C<grep> are intended to be pure functions, not mutators.
If you want to iterate with side-effects, then you should use a proper
C<for> or C<foreach> loop.
grep{ print frobulate($_) } @list; #not ok
print map{ frobulate($_) } @list; #ok
grep{ $_ = lc $_ } @list; #not ok
for( @list ){ $_ = lc $_ }; #ok
map{ push @frobbed, frobulate($_) } @list; #not ok
@frobbed = map { frobulate($_) } @list; #ok
