NAME

Data::Perl::Role::Number - Wrapping class for Perl scalar numbers.

version 0.002009

  use Data::Perl qw/number/;

  my $num = number(123);

  $num->add(5); # $num == 128

  $num->div(2); # $num == 64

This class provides a wrapper and methods for interacting with scalar strings.

All of these methods modify the attribute's value in place. All methods return the new value.

new($value): Constructs a new Data::Perl::Collection::Number object initialized with the passed in value, and returns it.
add($value): Adds the current value of the attribute to $value.
sub($value): Subtracts $value from the current value of the attribute.
mul($value): Multiplies the current value of the attribute by $value.
div($value): Divides the current value of the attribute by $value.
mod($value): Returns the current value of the attribute modulo $value.
abs: Sets the current value of the attribute to its absolute value.
