# Ok, so without knowing what the XS-replacement will look like
# and without knowing what we're doing with
# filehandle-functions (is tell() staying or does it get
# removed in favor of $fh.tell()) and a whole lot of other
I think that sort of thing is going. IIRC, the only built-in I/O thingy
that's staying is open().
# stuff it's impossible to translate all of the Perl 5
# functions to Perl 6. However, what I've done is take a quick
# stab at creating at least function signatures for everything
# that was in perlfunc and implemented some of the functions
# that do not require any external junk (e.g. reverse).
The one thing I notice all over the place is:
sub abs($num is int){ return $num>=0 ?? $num :: -$num }
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I believe that should be (int $num).
push @newlist, $_ if &code(); # XXX - How does code get
$_?
It should be C<code($_)>. A closure that receives one argument and
doesn't have a signature gets that argument put into $_.
Overall, things look roughly correct. Well done.
