These seems fine these days, at least on moar:
20:11 < [Coke]> r: say ((* < 5 and * > 5)(4,6))
20:11 <+camelia> rakudo-jvm 2f7ab3: ( no output )
20:11 <+camelia> ..rakudo-moar 2f7ab3: OUTPUT«Too many positionals passed;
expected 1 argument but got 2 in block <unit> at
/tmp/tmpfile:1»
Since the whatever code there has a single parameter, the *, we can't pass two
in.
20:11 < [Coke]> r: my $divisor = 2; say(* != $divisor && * %% $divisor);
20:11 <+camelia> rakudo-{moar,jvm} 2f7ab3: OUTPUT«WhateverCode.new»
Closable (for moar at least) with tests.
