=begin pod =TITLE class Capture class Capture does Positonal does Associative { } A Capture is a an argument list for passing it to a code object. It contains a list-like part for positional arguments and a hash-like part for named arguments. Captures can be created by prefixing a term with a backslash C<\>. my $c = \42; # Capture with one positional parts $c = \(1, 2, a => 'b'); # Capture wit two positional and one named part Another common way to create a Capture is to prefix a sigilless parameter with a vertical bar C<|>, which packs the remainder of the argument list into that parameter. f(1, 2, 3, a => 4, b => 5); sub f($a, |c) { # c is \(2, 3, a => 4, b => 5) } =head1 Methods =head2 list method list(Capture:D:) returns Positional Returns the positional part of the Capture. =head2 hash method hash(Capture:D:) returns Associative Returns the named/hash part of the Capture. =head2 elems method elems(Capture:D:) returns Int:D Returns the number of positional elements in the Capture. =end pod
