I appologize, one thing slipped through my copy-paste from L::MU, here is the corrected snippet.
L<PDL::Util> provides convenient utility functions and methods for use with PDL. Much like its inspiration L<List::MoreUtils>, it is intended to provide some trivial but commonly needed functionality on PDL objects which is not going to go into the PDL core. The author intends this to be a community module; if you find yourself often using a certain hand-rolled PDL method or function, consider submitting it for inclusion at L<http://github.com/jberger/PDL-Util>. The community will benefit and you can stop repeating yourself! Futher, it can be an easy way for new PDL/Perl/Open Source programmers to get their feet wet in contributing code. Ok so I added a sentance at the end too, is it good should it stay? Cheers (again), Joel On Thu, Dec 22, 2011 at 8:52 AM, Joel Berger <[email protected]> wrote: > Here's a blub on PDL::Util.
