<masonkramer> How do I see if a thing does Callable?
<masak> rakudo: sub foo {}; say &foo ~~ Callable
<p6eval> rakudo cae7f9: OUTPUT«1»
<masak> rakudo: sub foo {}; say &foo.^does(Callable)
<p6eval> rakudo cae7f9: OUTPUT«1»
<masonkramer> Ahh, yep that's what I wanted
<masonkramer> by the way, shouldn't smartmatch always return Bools?
<masak> there's no such rule.
<masak> smartmatching on a regex, for example, returns a Match object.
<masonkramer> Right...right
<masonkramer> I would've expected Bool here though, just because I'm asking a
yes or no
question
<masak> I'd say it's a bug too.
<masak> but I think it's been reported already.
* masak checks
<masak> yep -- http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=71462
<masak> but it's been resolved... hm.
<masak> rakudo: say (* ~~ Whatever).WHAT
<p6eval> rakudo cae7f9: OUTPUT«Bool()»
<masak> rakudo: say ("OH HAI" ~~ Str).WHAT
<p6eval> rakudo cae7f9: OUTPUT«Bool()»
<masak> those cases are indeed fixed.
<masak> this does not happen often.
* masak reopens ticket because C<&foo ~~ Callable> yields an Int
