I'm not sure but Perl6 could do better or at least trickier ;)
Let's assume that < > <= >= when chained return an accumulated
boolean and the least or greatest value where the condition was
true. E.g.
0 < 2 < 3 returns 0 but true
1 < 2 < 1 returns 1 but false
4 < 5 < 2 returns 2 but false
An interesting idea, but seems a bit heavy..
Is it correct that [min] won't parse unless min is declared
as an infix op, which looks a bit strange?
if 3 min 4 { ... }
Sure. Again there is a Haskell example to heed closely here; for instance, the
function:
divMod :: (Integral a) => a -> a -> (a, a)
Can be written as either;
divMod 42 9
or:
42 `divMod` 9
The reverse direction is ();
(+) :: (Num a) => a -> a -> a
(+) 7 5
7 + 5
