💖 Statistics::R::REXP::Symbol 💖

okay bestie, so this is a Perl man page — from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, section 3pm if you're keeping track — and it's all about Statistics::R::REXP::Symbol, aka the R symbol class. it's short, it's sweet, it's giving "small module, big feelings". let's get into it 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

Statistics::R::REXP::Symbol — an R symbol. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

🌸 VERSION 🌸

version 1.0002

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

okay so here's the little demo, copy it exactly, no notes:

use Statistics::R::REXP::Symbol;

my $sym = Statistics::R::REXP::Symbol->new('some name');
print $sym->name;

literally that's the whole flow. make one, print the name. slay. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so an object of this class represents an R symbol/name object, and in R internals land that's a "SYMSXP". no cap, that's the whole description. it's a tiny little wrapper and it knows exactly what it is. main character energy, honestly. 👑

💜 METHODS 💜

Statistics::R::REXP::Symbol inherits from Statistics::R::REXP. so all the family traits come along for free. 🫶

🌈 ACCESSORS 🌈

  • name — the string value of the symbol. like, the actual name, as a string. that's her.
  • sexptype — the SEXPTYPE of symbols is "SYMSXP". that's the internal type tag, always and forever.
  • to_pl — the Perl value of the symbol is just its name. that's the conversion. it hands you back the name, periodt. 💅

💀 BUGS AND LIMITATIONS 💀

okay important, listen up bestie: classes in the "REXP" hierarchy are intended to be immutable. please do not try to change their value or attributes. do not. don't do it. it's not that kind of party. 🙈

there are no known bugs in this module. for bug reporting, please see Statistics::R::IO. 👑

🫶 SUPPORT 🫶

see Statistics::R::IO for support and contact information. that's where the help lives. 💖
