Value PHP
=========

[](#value-php)

*An interface for immutable value classes for PHP7.1+*

Value objects are one of the fundamental building blocks of modern software. However, value objects in PHP lack a common interface, making it impossible to create useful generic solutions to a range of problems, especially data structures.

This package provides a simple `Value` interface with two methods: `equals()`and `hashCode()`. Also provided are a number of helper functions, such as `equal()`, `hash()` and `hashValues()`, which make it easy for you to implement your own `Value` classes with minimal effort.
