6 Number::Tolerant::Constant - a blessed constant type

9 version 1.710

12 use Number::Tolerant;
13 use Number::Tolerant::Constant;
14
15 my $range = tolerance(10);
16 ref $range; # "Number::Tolerant" -- w/o ::Constant, would be undef
17
19 When Number::Tolerant is about to return a tolerance with zero
20 variation, it will return a constant instead. This module will
21 register a constant type that will catch these constants and return
22 them as Number::Tolerant objects.
23
24 I wrote this module to make it simpler to use tolerances with
25 Class::DBI, which would otherwise complain that the constructor hadn't
26 returned a blessed object.

29 This library should run on perls released even a long time ago. It
30 should work on any version of perl released in the last five years.
31
32 Although it may work on older versions of perl, no guarantee is made
33 that the minimum required version will not be increased. The version
34 may be increased for any reason, and there is no promise that patches
35 will be accepted to lower the minimum required perl.
