(I'm just studying the intricacies of Perl 6, so please correct me if
i say something stupid or if this has already been discussed before.)

I got the reply that it is similar to exponentiation of variables in math:

Another important loss if we were to go with 1..3 would be the
ability to have runtime-dependent ranges; e.g.:
/ ($ntimes) x**{$ntimes} /
That's exactly what i meant by something stupid.
Thanks

Yes, that is correct. I've been away from the Perl 6

list; but it did bring up an issue that's been bothering me for a
while.
I would like to see Perl6 handle the equivalent of IPC::Open2 using
the same sort of syntax and semantics that it uses for sockets, by
default. That is, I'd
