How to deriving own distinguish type from Int?

Hello, I am already following Perl 6 since many years. But only recently as books began to appear, I began to really learn it. One of the many things I like on Perl 6 is its static typing possibility. I am used to dynamical typed languages like Perl 5, Ruby, Python ... you name it. But I am

Re: Perl6 shell, Was: command auto-completion in perl6 shell

I was not proposing that the REPL was to be invoked in any other way than at present. By "reducing the coupling", I mean arranging functions and interfaces in a way that prevents a change in one function affecting the other. Essentially, implementing standard interfaces between complete functions.

Re: Perl6 shell, Was: command auto-completion in perl6 shell

Some progress on this has already been made, which is how it got as close to standalone as it is now -- previously the REPL was more NQP than Rakudo. Do you have something specific in mind? One of my dreams is to adopt a client/server + middleware model from nREPL (clojure) which I think works rea

Is perl6-debug working

I recently re-installed rakudo from scratch to eliminate panda. That is I deleted all previous versions of rakudo / perl6, cloned rakudobrew, then rakudobrew build moar But perl6-debug is no longer present in . rakudobrew/bin I installed the debug UI module, but perl6-debug is not a part of the i

slightly unexpected JSON roundtrip for arrays

When converting an array to json and then back again, I need to use | or () in order to get back the original array in a @variable. This surprised me, especially as for hashes the roundtrip worked without any extra work. I was wondering if this is really the expected behaviour? Gabor use v6; use

Re: slightly unexpected JSON roundtrip for arrays

It is the expected behaviour. The problem isn't what from-json is returning but what kind of assignment you're doing to the result. Here's a simple version: my @a = $[1,2,3]; say @a # [[1 2 3]] Since from-json doesn't know what it's returning, (a string, a hash, an array) it returns whatever it

Re: ding!

perl6 -e 'say "\a"' Will print the alarm character which causes an annoying sound on my mac. Other than that, you'll have to investigate the module ecosystem or shell out to something. LL On Thu, Jun 1, 2017 at 1:24 PM ToddAndMargo wrote: > Hi All, > > Does Perl 6 have a build in "ding" sound

Is there a linter for Perl 6? (like Perl::Critic or pylint)

e.g. I'd like to check that every pl pm and t file in our project has a "use v6;" at the beginning. regards Gabor
