What does ^methods really tell you?

I originally thought that $var.^methods gave you a list of all available methods on $var, but it looks like it doesn't (always?) report on inherited methods. my $stringy = '3.14159'; say $stringy.^name; # Str say $stringy.^mro; # ((Str) (Cool) (Any) (Mu)) The list returned from checking

Re: What does ^parents really tell you?

Thanks! Both of these are workable, but the ^mro (method resolution order, I presume) is closer to what I wanted just now: my $stringy = 'abc'; say $stringy.^name; # Str say $stringy.^parents(:all); # ((Cool) (Any) (Mu)) say $stringy.^mro; # ((Str) (Cool) (Any)
