Does this make sense?
my @words = gather { for =(open '/usr/share/dict/words' err die) { .=chomp; next if /<-[a-z]>/; /$re/ and take { word => $_, score => %scores{ .letters }.sum }; } } ==> sort { .<score> } is descending, { .<word>.length }, { .<word> };
With some effort I managed to understand _which_ sense it should make up to this:
} ==> sort { .<score> } is descending, { .<word>.length }, { .<word> };^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I mean: everything of what is gather()ed gets 'piped' into sort() which sorts according to C<< { .<score> } >>. But what are the other args to it supposed to mean? (Sorry for being dense!)
