It also makes sense in a language where values are typed. They just have to be slightly more strongly typed than just "scalar". But Perl 6 is already going to support INT and STRING built-in types, right? So I see no problem with + doing string concat. I could mention some other languages (or at least, a language (of which I'm becoming considerably more fond as I get to know it (especially having just come back from Japan (excuse the jet lag)))) which takes this approach. -- Sigh. I like to think it's just the Linux people who want to be on the "leading edge" so bad they walk right off the precipice. (Craig E. Groeschel)
