Acme::Bleach::Numerically - Fit the whole world between 0 and 1

NAME

Acme::Bleach::Numerically - Fit the whole world between 0 and 1

SYNOPSIS

  # To bleach your script numerically
  use Acme::Bleach::Numerically;
  print "Hello, world!\n";
  # Or do your own bleaching
  use Acme::Bleach::Numerically qw/num2str str2num/;
  my $world = str2num(qq{print "hello, world!\n";})

DESCRIPTION

Georg Cantor has found that you can squeeze the whole world between zero and one. Many say he went insane because of that but the reality is, he just bleached himself with continuum hypothesis :)

This module does just that -- map your whole world onto a single point between 0 and 1. Welcome to the Programming Continuum of Perl!

EXPORT

This module autobleaches when no argument is passed via use. When you pass arguments, you can import str2num and num2str functions on demand.

BUGS

This module is pretty slow when trying to bleach very large scripts.
