Hi Curt,
Maybe I am blind, but I can only find
postcircumfix [ ]
https://docs.perl6.org/language/operators#postcircumfix_[_]
Here's the list cut/pasted from directly at the link I posted:
Operators can occur in several positions relative to a term:
+term prefix
term1 + term2 infix
term++ postfix
(term) circumfix
term1[term2] postcircumfix
From that, you can see that postfix things go behind a single term
while postcircumfix things go behind 1 term, and around another term.
One example on that page of a postcircumfix operator is the [] you
linked to.
Hi Curt,
Thank you!
Larry removed the rest of the fuzz from my thinking.
