NAME

    Convert::CookingTimes - work out cooking times adjusted for temperature



SYNOPSIS

    Given a set of item names, temperatures and durations, works out the

    average temperature and adjusts the times to suit that temperature, then

    returns a list of suggested timings.



        my ($temperature, @steps) = @steps = Convert::CookingTimes->adjust_times(

            { name => 'Chicken breasts', temp => 200, time => 20 },

            { name => 'Chips', temp => 220, time = 25 },

        );

        say "Warm oven up to $temperature degrees first.";

        for my $step (@steps) {

            say "Put $step->{name} in the oven, and wait for $step->{time_until_next}";

        }



        # You can also feed the result of adjust_times to summarise_instructions to

        # provide a simple set of instructions, e.g.:

        say Convert::CookingTimes->summarise_instructions(

            Convert::CookingTimes->adjust_times(\@items)

        );



DESCRIPTION

    Often find yourself cooking a variety of things, the cooking

    instructions for each requiring a different temperature and time?



    This module attempts to work out the appropriate oven temperature as an

    average of all the items, and adjusts their cooking times based on that

    temperature - so if they're going to be at a higher temperature the time

    is reduced and vice versa.



    Results may vary - providing items with a wide variation of temperatures

    could result in some foods being cooked at sub-optimal temperatures, and

    obviously you need to sanity-check the results, and be particularly

    careful to check that meat and poultry has reached a safe internal

    temperature etc. This is an algorhythm, not a cook!



SUBROUTINES/METHODS

  adjust_times

    Takes a list or arrayref of hashrefs, each of which contains details of

    an item being cooked, with the keys:



    name

        The name of the item



    temp

        The temperature the item's cooking instructions call for, in degrees

        Celcius



    time

        The cooking time the item's cooking instructions call for, in

        minutes



    Returns a suggested oven temperature, and an arrayref of cooking times

    adjusted to suit that temperature.



    summarise_instructions

    Given the results of adjust_times, produce a list of instructions.



    For instance:



      - Warm oven up to 200 degrees

      - Add Chicken Breasts, cook for 5 minutes

      - Add Oven Chips, cook for 20 minutes



    Returns a list of instruction steps if called in list context, or that

    list joined with newlines if called in scalar context.
