NAME
    Devel::Cover::Truth_Table - Truth tables for coverage objects.

VERSION
    version 1.36

SYNOPSIS
      use Devel::Cover::Truth_Table;

      # $a || $b
      my $or_tt  = Devel::Cover::Truth_Table->new_primitive('or_3', 0, 1, 1);

      # $c && $d
      my $and_tt = Devel::Cover::Truth_Table->new_primitive('and_3', 1, 0, 1);

      # merge contents of $and_tt into right column of $or_tt, to create
      # $a || ($c && $d)
      $or_tt->right_merge($and_tt);

      # get a (sorted) textual representation
      my @text = $or_tt->sort->text;
      print "$_\n" foreach @text;

DESCRIPTION
    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.
