Subject: Bug (doc or implementation) with reduce() return values
The doc for reduce() says: Returns the result of the last call to BLOCK. It should either be explicitly documented to only return a single value or should be implemented to handle multiple return values my ($foo, $bar, $baz) = reduce {$hash{$arr[$a]} < $hash{$arr[$b]} ? ($a, $hash{$arr[$a]}, $arr[$a]) : ($b, $hash{$arr[$b]}, $arr[$b]) } grep defined($arr[$_]), 0 .. $#arr;
The documentation for the next release of List::Util have been changed to reflect that BLOCK is called in a scalar context
