That brings me to another idea. Is $_ as an array used? @_?
This relates back to the discussion on topics. Could be use @_ as an array of topics, or was that already proposed?
So you could reference @_ as an indexed array, @_[0] being the current topic, or maybe @_[1] and having @_[0] as the number of topics. Then you could reference %_ as a hashed array, where you give the blockname to get that blocks topic/invocant.
Let's assume that naming blocks was done like such:
block1 -- for 1..5 {
block2 -- for 1..3 {
say @_[1] ~ @_[2];
}
}or
block1 -- for 1..5 {
block2 -- for 1..3 {
say %_<block2> ~ %_<block1>;
}
}I can't remember if barewords are allowed, so pretend I have '' around those blocknames for the hashes if they aren't :)
Also, the block names could then be used for next/last/continue/whatever.
next block2;
Or maybe my sleeping pills are turning me insane.
