<masak> rakudo: my $r = 1..9; $r.pop; say $r.perl # pmichaud: if ranges are immutable, how come I can pop from them? <p6eval> rakudo 2dded8: OUTPUT«1..8» <pmichaud> masak: there was a spec change at npw that declares ranges as immutable. Rakudo hasn't caught up. <pmichaud> masak: in particular, .pop and .shift are now gone from that part of the spec. <pmichaud> masak: indeed, part of the reason that rakudo hasn't caught up is because Ranges need to be refactored to be properly Positional, and doing that means we really need a good understanding of captures. Hence, thediscussion today. * masak submits rakudobug <pmichaud> we also need to remove the tests for .pop and .shift from the suite. <masak> I like ranges better when they're immutable. <pmichaud> yes, me also.
