NAME

    Method::Signatures - method and function declarations with signatures
    and no source filter

VERSION

    20170211

SYNOPSIS

        package Foo;
    
        use Method::Signatures;
    
        method new (%args) {
            return bless {%args}, $self;
        }
    
        # Can also get type checking if you like:
    
        method set (Str $key, Int $val) {
            return $self->{$key} = $val;        # now you know $val is always an integer
        }

DESCRIPTION

    Provides two new keywords, func and method, so that you can write
    subroutines with signatures instead of having to spell out my $self =
    shift; my($thing) = @_

    func is like sub but takes a signature where the prototype would
    normally go. This takes the place of my($foo, $bar) = @_ and does a
    whole lot more.

    method is like func but specifically for making methods. It will
    automatically provide the invocant as $self (by default). No more my
    $self = shift.
