Hi Todd,
Chapter 9 (Associatives) of "Learning Perl 6" by brian d foy has a
section on Maps, "the immutable mapping of zero or more keys to
values". In that section there are subsections entitled 'Checking
Keys', 'Creating from a Positional' and 'Checking Allowed Values.'
HTH, Bill.

Hi All,
I am cooking up something where I want top pass a value to a sub, but I
want to restrict what those values are.
For instance, things like
AbortRetryIgnore
CancelRetryContinue
Help
YesNo
Maybe
And so on and so forth.
If the wrong value is passed, I want the checker to crash
the sub.
What is the best way of going about this?
Many thanks,

Hi Bill,
I can't have books in my house. It is along story.
But, based on what you said, I found this;
https://docs.perl6.org/type/Map.html
The docs are really poorly written for beginners, but
it is a good start
Thank you!
