But in Perl 5 to navigate complex structures one needs ad-hoc
solutions. I wonder if something is planned in Perl 6 as a means to do
that through a syntactically convenient construct with ad-hoc-isms
pluggable in in the form of suitable hooks (e.g. .on_node( { code; ... }
), etc.) that would
Well, @Larry has been researching attribute grammars for a month or
two now, which are an efficient (programmer-wise, not necessarily
processor-wise) method for specifying computations over trees. The
only syntax we've seen is that of Language::AttributeGrammar and TGE,
whose roots come from
In Perl 5 Cfor is quite natural for iterating over lists and arrays.
Cwhile is preferred for filehandles. With lazy evaluation this
difference has been eliminated in Perl 6 so that while still TMTOWTDI
(TAEMWTDI!) this kind of iterations will be more consistent.
But in Perl 5 to navigate
