Inspired by a p6-users message where someone was confused after attempting
to naïvely
Fixed with 0c88527472c14cf9f834, tests unfudged.

AFAIU this ticket is about the type of @.slots not being respected. This seems
to be fixed now:
$ perl6 -e 'class A { has Method @.slots; }; A.new.slots.push: [1, 2, 3]'
Type check failed in assignment to '@!slots'; expected 'Method' but got 'Array'
in block at -e:1
I added a test to S32-arra

I found some behavior using heredocs, and I'm not really
sure what the right thing to do

Another question on method 1 above, please:

While experimenting I've found the first two methods of passing a hash
to a subroutine work:
# method 1
my %hash1;
foo1(%hash1);
say %hash1.perl;
sub foo1(%hash) {
%hash{1} = 0;
}
# method 2
my %hash2;
my $href2 = %hash2;
foo2($href2);
say %hash2.perl;
sub foo2($href) {
$href{1} = 0;
}

So, considering all the comments and S32 wording, I suspect that this
would be sort of a "best practice" idiom:

I completely missed the other obvious attempt to use Perl 5ish semantics:

Which worked also (surprisingly given S32 and your comments)!
Thanks for all the help Carl and yary

Hi Tom,
What you're experiencing is not a bug. It's the fact that if 0 ends up
in your $idx variable, then that 0 will evaluate as False in an if
statement (or in a && operand).
But jumping ahead to what you probably *meant* to write:
if defined($idx) && $idx >= 0 {
$str = $str.substr(0, $idx)
I originally had problems with the S32 description of string function
index. S32 says that if the substring is not found then a bare Int is
returned which evaluates to false, otherwise an Int with the position
of the first substring match is returned. It goes on to say that one
should not evaluate
25 matches
