This module provides methods for creating and merging conditional primitives ("$a && $b", "$c || $d", etc.) into more complex composite expressions. METHODS
new_primitive($op, @coverage) Create a new truth table based on one of the built-in primitives, which are the subclasses of Devel::Cover::DB::Condition. $op is one of the following: and_3 "and" or "&&" with three conditional paths. or_3 "or" or "||" with three conditional paths. or_2 "or" or "||" with two conditional paths. (i.e., when the right hand side of the expression is a constant) xor_4 "xor" with four conditional paths. @coverage is a list booleans identifying which of the possible paths have been covered. sort() Sorts a truth table (in place) and returns the sorted object. text() Format a truth table to an array of strings for printing. html() Format a truth table in HTML. error() percentage() Determines the proportion of possible conditions that have coverage. right_merge($sub_table) Merge entries from $sub_table into right column of table. left_merge($sub_table) Merge entries from $sub_table into left column of table.
