NAME
    List::Objects::WithUtils - Object interfaces to lists with useful
    methods

SYNOPSIS
      use List::Objects::WithUtils;

      my $array = array(qw/ aa Ab bb Bc bc /);

      my @upper = $array->grep(
          sub { $_[0] =~ /^b/i }
        )->map(
          sub { uc $_[0] }
      )->uniq->all;  # @upper = ( 'BB', 'BC' )


      my $hash  = hash( foo => 'bar', snacks => 'cake' );
  
      $hash->set( foobar => 'baz', pie => 'tasty' );

      my @matching = $hash->keys->grep(sub { $_[0] =~ /foo/ })->all;

      if ( $hash->keys->any_items eq 'snacks' ) {
        ...    
      }

DESCRIPTION
    A small set of roles and classes defining an object-oriented interface
    to Perl hashes and arrays. Originally derived from Data::Perl.

    Some commonly used functions from List::Util, List::MoreUtils, and
    List::UtilsBy are conveniently provided as methods.

    See:

    List::Objects::WithUtils::Role::Array

    List::Objects::WithUtils::Role::WithJunctions

    List::Objects::WithUtils::Role::Hash

    array is imported from List::Objects::WithUtils::Array and creates a new
    ARRAY-type object. Behavior is defined by
    List::Objects::WithUtils::Role::Array; look there for documentation on
    available methods.

    hash is imported from List::Objects::WithUtils::Hash; see
    List::Objects::WithUtils::Role::Hash for documentation.

    Why another object-oriented list module?

    There are a fair few object-oriented approaches to lists on CPAN, none
    of which were quite what I needed. Data::Perl comes the closest -- but
    is primarily targetting MooX::HandlesVia and cannot guarantee a
    reasonably stable API (and I don't need the other data types).

    This module aims to provide a consistent, natural interface to hashes
    and arrays exclusively, with convenient access to common tools. The
    interface is expected to remain stable; methods may be added but are not
    expected to be removed (or experience incompatible interface changes,
    barring serious bugs).
