Not without an "apply" mechanism used for function / method
There is a "flip" in P6, to reverse the characters in a string, and a
"reverse", to return the elements of a list. Would either of those be

This isn't a request for a feature, merely a thought experiment. We're
still in the phase where it's more important to ensure that existing
features work properly than add new ones.
How difficult would it be to include a mechanism within the REPL to
select either documentation or an example, (poss
There’s a very common functional programming pattern, usually called flip;
its implementation in Haskell is simply:
flip :: (a -> b -> c) -> b -> a -> cflip f x y = f y x
Getting the same behavior out of a bespoke function in Perl 6 would be easy
for any particular case, but writing a gene
