 The last 'into' should be 'the'.

And it has become 'its', which is clearer.

 +You may cast CArguments to other types with a prefix sigil operator:

 +$args = \3; # same as $args = \(3)
 +$$args; # same as $args as Scalar or Scalar($args)
 +@$args; # same as '$args as Array  or Array($args)
 +%$args; # same as '$args as Hash   or Hash($args)
 +$args; # same as '$args as Code   or Hash($args)


Shouldn't this last one be
  +$args; # same as '$args as Code   or Code($args)

  a +Casted as an array, you can access to all positionals.  Casted as

s/casted/cast/g

and i would word those as 'cast into an array'. here is my rewrite:

When cast into an array, you can access all the positional
arguments; Into a hash, all named arguments; Into a scalar, the
invocant; Into code, into slurpy nameless block.

The last 'into' should be 'the'.
