Abstract Classes (Score:1)
I suspect you mean
$_->is_abstractand not$self->is_abstract. Beyond that I think I need to know more of the context in which this is used.- Stevan

Also I think he needs the opening '(' for

Each method attempts to do the the same thing: return a list of non-abstract classes. The first method inspects class names and uses a heuristic to find out if they're abstract classes. The second method asks the classes if they're abstract classes. How this is used could vary, obviously. As an abstraction, there are any number of reasons why you might want a list of non-abstract classes.
