# Strain Welcome to Strain on Exercism's Perl 5 Track. If you need help running the tests or submitting your code, check out `HELP.md`. ## Instructions Implement the `keep` and `discard` operation on collections. Given a collection and a predicate on the collection's elements, `keep` returns a new collection containing those elements where the predicate is true, while `discard` returns a new collection containing those elements where the predicate is false. For example, given the collection of numbers: - 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 And the predicate: - is the number even? Then your keep operation should produce: - 2, 4 While your discard operation should produce: - 1, 3, 5 Note that the union of keep and discard is all the elements. The functions may be called `keep` and `discard`, or they may need different names in order to not clash with existing functions or concepts in your language. ## Restrictions Keep your hands off that filter/reject/whatchamacallit functionality provided by your standard library! Solve this one yourself using other basic tools instead. ## Source ### Created by - @bistik ### Contributed to by - @kytrinyx - @m-dango - @rfilipo ### Based on Conversation with James Edward Gray II - https://twitter.com/jeg2
