What's the plan on having properties, or attributes (depending on how
far we're taking it), on individual characters in a string? I think
it's an essential feature, as Lisp has shown us. If there's an

While working on ...something... I found the need to be able to tell if a
key exists in a PerlHash. Here's the kicker, I don't know what kind of
data's gonna be there: int, float, PMC, or string.
After hunting around in t/perlhash.t I found a few examples of checking for
keys that don't exist.

Ah, yes. That's what I was failing to recollect. (Apologies to bot
The ops described in PDD 6 and docs/parrot_assembly.pod for
scratchpads appear to be subtly different from the ones actually in
core.ops. In particular, i was led astray by the docs referring to the
"newpad" op and core.ops implementing "new_pad". which is it supposed
to be? =)

Michael Schwern recently suggested "Monaco,

The CLI has three floating point types, of which 2 are visible
to C# and a third is used by the engine. These are "float32",
"float64", and "native float". The firs
