Sub::PatternMatching ==================== Sub::PatternMatching implements "Pattern Matching," a programming idiom often found in functional languages like Haskell or OCaml. Pattern Matching refers to functions that do different things for different arguments. It is often referred to as polymorphism as well. The syntax is currently a bit convoluted taking away much from the benefit of readability by replacing nested if-else constructs with pattern matching. This is supposed to be fixed in a later release, but maintaining backward-compatibility.
