Does not look like a class to me. What am I missing?
It's a namespace declaration, see:
https://docs.raku.org/language/syntax#index-entry-declarator_unit-declarator_module-declarator_package-Package,_Module,_Class,_Role,_and_Grammar_declaration
That's the reason why the class name is Informative::Informing and not
just Informing.

Hi Fernando,
I see:
Several packages may be declared in a single file.
However, you can declare a unit package at the start
of the file (preceded only by comments or use
statements), and the rest of the file will be taken
as being the body of the package. In this case, the
curly braces are not required.
unit module M;
# ... stuff goes here instead of in {}'s
I thought methods had to be part of classes? Or
how the above relates to the methods in the module.
I am confused.
