%description
The autobox module promotes Perl's primitive types (literals (strings and
numbers), scalars, arrays and hashes) into first-class objects. However,
autobox does not provide any methods for these new classes.

autobox::CORE provides a set of methods for these new classes. It includes
almost everything in perlfunc, some things from Scalar::Util and
List::Util, and some Perl 5 versions of methods taken from Perl 6.

With _autobox::Core_ one is able to change this:

print join(" ", reverse(split(" ", $string)));

to this:

use autobox::Core;

$string->split(" ")->reverse->print;

Likewise you can change this:

my $array_ref = [qw(fish dog cat elephant bird)];

push @$array_ref, qw(snake lizard giraffe mouse);

to this:

use autobox::Core;
        my $array_ref = [qw(fish dog cat elephant bird)];

$array_ref->push( qw(snake lizard giraffe mouse));

_autobox::Core_ makes it easier to avoid parentheses pile ups and messy
dereferencing syntaxes.

_autobox::Core_ is mostly glue. It presents existing functions with a new
interface, while adding few extra. Most of the methods read like 'sub hex {
CORE::hex($_[0]) }'. In addition to built-ins from perlfunc that operate on
hashes, arrays, scalars, and code references, some Perl 6-ish things have
been included, and some keywords like 'foreach' are represented too.
