πΈ Test2::Compare::Wildcard(3pm) β a Perl Programmers Reference Guide moment πΈ
okay so bestie, welcome to the Test2::Compare::Wildcard(3pm) page, straight out of the Perl Programmers Reference Guide. it's short, it's sweet, and it's literally a whole vibe check for placeholders. let's get into it π
β¨ NAME β¨
Test2::Compare::Wildcard β Placeholder check. that's it, that's the whole name. iconic brevity fr fr π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so here's the tea β: this module is used as a temporary placeholder for values that still need to be converted. like, it's holding the spot until the real value shows up. main character energy, but make it temporary β¨
and why do we even need it? because it's necessary to carry forward the filename and line number β which would be lost in the conversion otherwise. π like, without this little placeholder bestie, that precious file-and-line info just evaporates. we simply cannot let that happen. slay for continuity π«Ά
