.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\&\f(CW\*(C`autobox::List::Util\*(C'\fR brings all of the functions from List::Util
to arrays as methods.
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    use autobox::List::Util;
\&

\&
\&    print @array\->first(sub { /ar/ }), "\en"; # "bar"

.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
.SS "first(coderef)"
.IX Subsection "first(coderef)"
This method behaves nearly the same as the first function from List::Util,
but it takes a coderef not a block because methods can't use prototypes.
.SS "reduce(coderef)"
.IX Subsection "reduce(coderef)"
This method behaves nearly the same as the reduce function from List::Util,
but it takes a coderef not a block for the same reason.  It also has a bug
(see \s-1BUGS\s0)
.SS "shuffle"
.IX Subsection "shuffle"
If called in scalar context it returns a reference to an array instead
of a list.  This allows shuffle to be chained with other calls.
.SS "max, maxstr, min, minstr, sum"
.IX Subsection "max, maxstr, min, minstr, sum"
These methods behave exactly the same as their List::Util counterparts.

.IX Header "AUTHOR"
Chas. J. Owens \s-1IV, \s0\f(CW\*(C`<chas.owens at gmail.com>\*(C'\fR
.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
The reduce method works with \f(CW$main::a\fR and \f(CW$main::b\fR, not your current
package's \f(CW$a\fR and \f(CW$b\fR, so you need to say
.PP
.Vb 1
\&    print @array\->reduce( sub { $main::a + $main::b } ), "\en";
.Ve
.PP
if you are not in the main package.  Reduce uses \f(CW$_\fR, so it doesn't
suffer from this problem.
