Number:...ess_than(3)

💖 Number::Tolerant::Type::less_than 💖

okay bestie, so this page is Number::Tolerant::Type::less_than(3) — yes the manpage header is literally called that, and yes it's a little cursed, but we move. It's part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's giving "tiny little type module that does exactly one thing and slays at it." 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

Number::Tolerant::Type::less_than — a tolerance "m < n"

like. that's it. that's the whole vibe. it handles the "less than" kind of tolerance. no cap. 💅

---

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 1.710

periodt. that's the number. write it down. 📝

🧚 PERL VERSION 🧚

okay so this is the part where we talk about your perl, and ngl it's very forgiving:

This library should run on perls released even a long time ago. It should work on any version of perl released in the last five years. 👑

but listen — even though it may work on older versions of perl, there's no guarantee that the minimum required version won't get bumped. The version may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl. so don't come for her later. 😭
