DESCRIPTION

19       This class represents one of the simple assertions; that is, those that
20       are not defined via parentheses. This includes the zero-width
21       assertions "^", "$", "\b", "\B", "\A", "\Z", "\z" and "\G", as well as:
22
23       •   The "\z" assertion added in Perl 5.005,
24
25       •   The "\K" assertion added in Perl 5.009005,
26
27       •   The "\b{gcb}" assertion (and friends) added in Perl 5.021009.
28           Similar braced constructions (like "\b{foo}") are unknown tokens.
29

METHODS

31       This class provides no public methods beyond those provided by its
32       superclass.
33
34   is_matcher
35       This method returns a true value because an assertion actually matches
36       something.
