=head1 NAME

Sub::SmartMatch - Use smart matching to define multi subs

=head1 SYNOPSIS

	use Sub::SmartMatch;

	use SmartMatch::Sugar qw(any);

	# variants will be tried in a given/when
	# clause in the order they are defined

	multi fact => [ 0 ], sub { 1 };

	multi fact => any, sub {
		my $n = shift;
		return $n * fact($n - 1);
	}

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides Haskell/ML style subroutine variants based on Perl's
smartmatch operator.

This doesn't do argument binding, just value matching.

To define methods use C<SmartMatch::Sugar>'s C<object> test:

	multi new [ class ]  => sub {
		 # invoked as a class method
	}

	multi new [ object ] => sub {
		# invoked as an object method
		# this should clone, i guess
	}

=head1 EXPORTS

=over 4

=item exactly $case

This marks this case for exact matching. This means that it will match on
C<\@_>, not on the slice C<<[ @_[0 .. $#$case] ]>>.

This only applies to cases which are array references themselves.

=item multi $name, $case, &body

Define a variant for the sub name C<$name>.

C<$case> will be smartmatched against an array reference of the arguments to
the subroutine.

As a special case to allow variable arguments at the end of the list, if
C<$case> is an array reference it will only be matched against the slice of
C<@_> with the corresponding number of elements, not all of C<@_>. Use
C<exactly> to do a match on all of C<@_>. This does not apply to an empty array
(otherwise that would always match, instead of matching empty arrays).

=item multi_default $name, &body

Define the C<default> for a multi sub. This variant is always tried last if no
other variant matched.

=item def_multi $name, [ $case => &body, $case => &body, default => ... ]

Define a multi sub in one go.

	def_multi foo => (
		$case   => $body,
		...     => ...,
		default => $default,
	);
