Brent Dax asked:
So
@a ~> grep { ... } ~> @b
Is the same as
@b = grep { ... } @a
Yes.
As in...
class Array {
...
method grep (Array $ary: Code $code) returns Array {
...
}
method grep (Code $code: Array $ary) returns Array {
...
}
}
No. As in:
sub grep (Code|Hash $selector, *@candidates) is multi {...}
class Array {
...
method grep(Array $self: *@candidates) {...}
}
Multimethods don't belong to classes; they mediate interactions *between* classes.
? And this would automagically get mapped into Array::grep?
No. Both would be explicitly and separately defined.
(Reminds me of C++ operator overloading for e.g. "operator +(int,
MyStringType)"...)
Which is *exactly* why we're doing it slightly differently. ;-)
