💖 Test::S...::Number(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to Test::Stream::Compare::Number, a page straight out of the User Contributed Perl Documentation. pull up a chair, we're comparing numbers today 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

Test::Stream::Compare::Number — compare 2 values as numbers 🔢

🚨 DEPRECATED 🚨

ngl this is the part where I hold your hand. this whole distribution is deprecated 💀 in favor of Test2, Test2::Suite, and Test2::Workflow.

want the glow-up guide? the conversion steps live in Test::Stream::Manual::ToTest2. go read that, bestie, it's the move 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what does this do? it's used to compare 2 numbers. that's it, that's the vibe. you can also check that 2 numbers are not the same, if you're feeling spicy ✨

Note: this will fail if the received value is undefined 😭 it must be a number, no exceptions.
Note: this will fail if the comparison generates a non-numeric value warning — and that warning will not be shown. why? because it has to get a number, periodt. the warning stays hidden because it would report to a useless line and filename, but the test diagnostics do show both values, so you're not totally left hanging 👑
