Hello,
I had just began looking at the perl6 raduko compiler and
have a question. Is perl6 actually compiled then ran similar to java or
is the script ran and then compiled at run time?

It supports either, but defaults to single-step compile-run (like Perl
5).
I think that a transparent cache is envisioned for the future,
so th
Rakudo in its normal operation will compile the program, then run it
immediately. You can, however, get it to save the compiled code for
later use i fyou wish.

what he termed "algebra of logic", hence "Boolean algebra" as mathematicians
know it now.
But what we (programmers) call "Boolean", although in line with his original
