Thanks JJ, Marcel, Matthew
That's help me a lot to understand how Raku hashes work;
Little bit complex compared to Perl5.
But now I got another question
given
my %a = 'column1' => [1...5], 'column2' => ['a'...'e']
I want to calculate sqrt and store in column3
> %a{'column1'}.map({ .sqrt })
(1 1.4142135623730951 1.7320508075688772 2 2.23606797749979)
> %a{'column3'} = %a{'column1'}.map({ .sqrt })
> %a{'column3'}
(1 1.4142135623730951 1.7320508075688772 2 2.23606797749979)
> %a.keys
(column1 column3 column2)
But...
> %a{'column1'} ==> map( { .sqrt } )
(2.23606797749979)
How I access the array's values within the hash?
