I've read Synopsis and I wondered why to treat max and min as
operator. IMHO, view them as list functions is more reasonable. Like
below:
@test.max
is clearer than
@test[0] max @test[1] or [max] @test.
Any reply would be really appreciated and will much help me learn
perl6. Thanks in advance!
There are no barewords in Perl 6, but it seems new method is an exception:
class Dog {
has $name;
method bark () {
say $name;
}
}
my $p = Dog.new($name => 'boo');
$p.bark;#error!
my $p = Dog.new( name => 'boo');

Off the top of one's head, since there is no particular difference between
an operator and a function, can I see a function as a operator:
(1, 2, 3, 4) >>elems<<(2, 3, 4, 5) #(2, 2, 2, 2)
(1, 2, 3, 4) >>shift<<(2, 3, 4, 5) #(2, 3, 4, 5)
Moreover, can I see a subroutine as a oper

My question is: could I write below code in perl6:
my @a = <1 2 3 4>; my @b[2]; for @a ->
@b {;} # 2 loops like for @a -> $b[0],$b[1]{;}
my @a = <1 2 3 4>; my @b; for @a -> @b
{;} # 1 loop

Is Int a proper type? I hope I can use basic operation within Date and hours
in perl6 like:
Date -1/24 + 1/24/60 + Date
