+Description: module providing common data validation routines for strings/numbers
  Data::Validate collects common validation routines to make input validation,
  and untainting easier and more readable. Most of the functions are not much
  shorter than their direct perl equivalent (and are much longer in some
- cases), but their names make it clear what you're trying to test for.
+ cases), but their names make it clear what you're trying to test for (e.g.
+ is_integer(), is_hex(), is_alphanumeric()...).
  .
  Almost all functions return an untainted value if the test passes, and undef
  if it fails. This means that you should always check for a defined status
  explicitly. Don't assume the return will be true. (e.g. is_integer(0))
- .
- The value to test is always the first (and often only) argument.

- This description was automagically extracted from the module by dh-make-perl.
