=head1 NAME

Acme::CPANModules::RemovingItemsFromList - List of modules to remove items from list (alias for Acme::CPANModules::RemovingElementsFromArray)

=head1 VERSION

This document describes version 0.003 of Acme::CPANModules::RemovingItemsFromList (from Perl distribution Acme-CPANModules-RemovingElementsFromArray), released on 2023-09-30.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Perl provides several ways to remove elements from an array. C<shift> removes one
element from the beginning, C<pop> removes one element from the end, and C<splice>
removes a slice of array (and insert another list in its place). There's also
C<grep>, which lets you filter a list with a user-supplied code. While this does
not directly modify an array, you can simply assign the new filtered values to
the array. And I might just as well mention array slice (C<@ary[1,3,4]> or
C<@ary[1..4]>) which allows you to pick the range of elements you want by their
indices.

In addition to the above, there are also other modules which provide some
convenience.

B<Removing duplicate items>

L<List::Util> provides C<uniq> (as well as C<uniqnum>, C<uniqint>, C<uniqstr>)
to remove duplicate items from a list. There's also L<List::Util::Uniq>
providing C<dupe>, C<dupenum>, C<dupeint>, and C<dupestr>, which return the
duplicates instead.

B<Removing overlapped items>

L<Array::OverlapFinder> lets you find overlapping items from a series of
arrays and optionally remove them.

B<< Variations of C<grep> >>

Some modules offer variations of C<grep>. For example, L<Array::KeepGrepped>
keeps the elements that are filtered out instead those that match the grep
expression. L<List::Util::sglice> offers C<sglice>, which removes elements that
matches user-supplied code, except that C<sglice> (like C<splice>) allows you to
specify a limit to the number of elements to remove.

B<mapslice>

L<List::Util::mapsplice> offers C<mapsplice>, which removes a slice of array
but lets you replace each element with new elements using Perl code.

=head1 FAQ

=head2 What is an Acme::CPANModules::* module?

An Acme::CPANModules::* module, like this module, contains just a list of module
names that share a common characteristics. It is a way to categorize modules and
document CPAN. See L<Acme::CPANModules> for more details.

=head2 What are ways to use this Acme::CPANModules module?

Aside from reading this Acme::CPANModules module's POD documentation, you can
install all the listed modules (entries) using L<cpanm-cpanmodules> script (from
L<App::cpanm::cpanmodules> distribution):

 % cpanm-cpanmodules -n RemovingItemsFromList

Alternatively you can use the L<cpanmodules> CLI (from L<App::cpanmodules>
distribution):

    % cpanmodules ls-entries RemovingItemsFromList | cpanm -n

or L<Acme::CM::Get>:

    % perl -MAcme::CM::Get=RemovingItemsFromList -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

or directly:

    % perl -MAcme::CPANModules::RemovingItemsFromList -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $Acme::CPANModules::RemovingItemsFromList::LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n

This Acme::CPANModules module also helps L<lcpan> produce a more meaningful
result for C<lcpan related-mods> command when it comes to finding related
modules for the modules listed in this Acme::CPANModules module.
See L<App::lcpan::Cmd::related_mods> for more details on how "related modules"
are found.
