in thread RFC: List::Extract

Nice. This instantly reminded me about this node of mine, where I did almost the same thing. But I didn't think too much of it then. Thanks for reminding me.

I think it's just, not far but enough, across the line where it's worth putting in a module though.

    I hadn't seen your node as that thread happened while I was away on holiday watching madmen race motorcycles on the Isle of Man :-)

    I find reverse useful in a lot of situations and have advocated it's use before. What I particularly like is the way you can apply it in both list and scalar contexts, the latter to reverse a string. I use both in this post.

    Perl is just full of amazing tools. I love it.

    Cheers,
