The overall impression I'm getting here is that we need some syntax for
saying:
$x = any(1..1000) such_that is_prime($x);
In standard Perl 6 that'd be:
$x = any(grep {is_prime $^x} 1..1000);
or, if you prefer your constraints postfixed:
$x = any( (1..1000).grep({is_prime $^x}

Short answer: I don't think so.

Funny. I thought $x would contain 'true' here, since C was a
boolean operator. But I could be very wro

Short answer: I don't think so.
Long answer: I tend to get very lost when dealing with junctions, so
I can be completely wro
