=head1 NAME

std/path/zz - ZuzuScript-flavoured path selectors.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  from std/path/zz import ZZPath;
  
  let data := { users: [ { name: "Ada" } ] };
  say( ( new ZZPath( path: "/users/#0/name" ) ).first(data) );

=head1 IMPLEMENTATION SUPPORT

This module is supported by all implementations of ZuzuScript.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides the public C<ZZPath> class. It currently reuses the
ZPath traversal, parser, lexer, assignment, and reference
machinery while routing expression operators through
C<std/path/zz/operators> and expression functions through
C<std/path/zz/functions>.

=head1 EXPORTS

=head2 Classes

=over

=item C<ZZEvaluator>

Evaluator class that supplies ZZPath operators and functions.

=over

=item C<< evaluator.operator_definitions() >>

Parameters: none. Returns: C<Array>. Returns ZZPath operator
definitions.

=item C<< evaluator.function_definitions() >>

Parameters: none. Returns: C<Array>. Returns ZZPath function
definitions.

=back

=item C<< ZZPath({ path: String }) >>

Constructs a ZZPath query object. Returns: C<ZZPath>. Inherits the
public query, assignment, and reference methods from C<ZPath>.

=over

=item C<< path.get_evaluator() >>

Parameters: none. Returns: C<ZZEvaluator>. Returns the evaluator used
for this path.

=item C<< node.find(path) >>

C<ZZPath> inherits from C<ZPath>, so a C<ZZPath> object can be passed to
C<std/path/z/node> C<Node.find()>.
