In S29, I currently have C<grep> as:
multi sub grep (Any|Junction $test : [EMAIL PROTECTED]) returns List {
gather {
for @values -> $x {
take $x if $x ~~ $test;

}
}
That's the listop form. I was referring to the method form:
multi sub grep (@array: *&code) returns List {
...
}
Got it. I'll be adding that form to various functions shortly.
Could I please get a list of what forms I need to be defining in S29?
Right now I have: - General non-OO form. - adverbial code block form (where applicable).
I haven't gotten a solid answer on when and how Perl will autogenerate methods from subs.
For instance, would
@array.grep(/foo/);
generate a call to the list op C<grep> above, or do I need to be defining another form of C<grep> that's more agreeable to autogeneration? If so, what makes a sub more agreeable to auto method generation?
