Hi Todd,
the error you're getting comes from a closing quotation mark missing
after "Larry
You will also need to give perl6 some hint that you want the list of
pairs to actually become a hash.
To do that, I would recommend just putting a % in front of the ()
The working code looks like this:
perl6 -e 'my %Vendors=("acme" => %( "ContactName" => "Larry",
"AccountNo" => 1234 ) ); say %Vendors;'
{acme => {AccountNo => 1234, ContactName => Larry}}
Hope that helps!
