The Rakudo Perl6 compilier is written in Perl6 (and a subset of Perl6 named NQP)
The `index` subroutines are at

They basically only call the `index` and `rindex` methods
To keep from showing you all of the methods, they all coerce the value
to Str then call `index` on that.
The location of the Str.index methods is

Note that they heavily use NQP opcodes, so you shouldn't try and copy them.

Hi All,
Was the subroutine "index" written Perl6? If so,
where can I view the source code?
Many thanks,

Thank you!
The nqp op codes do seem way over my head. :'(
