Do you claim that

Range-example is my quess of how Range could be used with "for".
I'm not 100% sure if that syntax is OK.
How do I extend the example to really check the parameter types. Some
kind of "use strict" anywhere?
I think that parameter types are automatically checked.
Also "use strict;" is default in perl6, but that's a bit different thing IMHO.

ther can Int ever be "best candidate" for Num, because

The programmer put type information in the sig for a reason. I think

Instead of replacing the value in a container like normal assignment,
it replaces the container itself. For instance:
my $x = 'Just Another';
my $y := $x;
$y = 'Perl Hacker';
After this, both $x and $y contain the string "Perl Hacker", since
they are really just two different names for the same variable.
