💅 PPI::Token::Operator — the glow-up page

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for PPI::Token::Operator (yeah, the header up top says PPI::To...perator(3) because terminals are dramatic and truncate everything, but we know what it really is 🫶). It's the token class for operators. Slay.

✨ NAME ✨

PPI::Token::Operator — literally the token class for operators, no cap 💅

🧬 INHERITANCE 🧬

the family tree goes like this, and yes it's giving royal lineage 👑

PPI::Token::Operator
isa PPI::Token
    isa PPI::Element

so it's a PPI::Token, which is a PPI::Element. iconic behaviour, honestly.

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

here's the whole squad — the list of valid operators. memorize it like it's your fave playlist 🎀

# This is the list of valid operators
++   --   **   !    ~    +    -
=~   !~   *    /    %    x
<<   >>   lt   gt   le   ge   cmp  ~~
==   !=   <=>  .    ..   ...  ,
&    |    ^    &&   ||   //
?    :    **=  +=   -=   .=   *=   /=
%=   x=   &=   |=   ^=   <<=  >>=  &&=
||=  //=  <    >    <=   >=   <>   =>   ->
and  or   xor  not  eq   ne   <<>>

that's the list. every single one. don't come for me about the spacing, it's verbatim bestie 😭

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so like — every operator in PPI gets created as a PPI::Token::Operator object. all of them. even the ones that look like they could be a PPI::Token::Word object at first glance 👀. superficial vibes only, they're still operators underneath. main character energy fr fr.

🛠️ METHODS 🛠️

bad news for anyone hoping for extra lore: there are no additional methods beyond the ones your parents already gave you — those being the PPI::Token and PPI::Element classes. inherit and thrive, periodt 💅

🆘 SUPPORT 🆘

go check the support section in the main module. it's right there, bestie, I promise 🫶
