It is both. Examples where it is used as an infix operator include:
I'm re-working my "Periodic Table of the Operators" chart to be up-to-
date. I did the first major pass based on S03-operators. However,
the last few days I've been plowing through STD.pm and have discovered
that there some differences. Since STD.pm is considered more up to
date, I'll be
Following some responses I've seen, I'll try to clarify my proposal. Basically
its like this.
A significant subset of Perl 6 native features, eg types and operators, native
meaning they are declared and described in the Perl 6 Synopsis documents, have
been implemented under Pugs by being writ

The Prelude is a file written in Perl 6 that defines some Perl 6 built-ins.
See http://perlcabal.org/svn/pugs/view/src/perl6/Prelude.pm for what AFAIK is
the newest version.

The problem with this method is that there are usually *several* ways to
implement each feature in terms of some number of other features. The
creators of the shared prelude are then stuck with the problem of
deciding which of these to use. If their choices do not matc

Another thing to keep in mind is that once we start to have a Perl 6
prelude, we might decide to be nice neighbors and share it with other
implementations, as far as that's practical.
