http://doc.perl6.org/type/Date says

but this doesn't work and what's implemented appears to be "year"
rather than :year
$ perl6
my $c = Date.new('2012-12-24');
2012-12-24
say $c.truncated-to("year")
2012-01-01
Which is correct the code or docs?
iirc there was a spec change.
Let's check...
$ ~/p6/specs (master)$ git log -p -S truncated

[S32/Temporal] spec DateTime.delta and Date.delta
Clarify the .truncated-to method as well; it also uses the
C<TimeUnit> enum, instead of named parameters.
...
-The C<truncated-to> method allows you to "clear" a number of time values
+The C<truncated-to> constructor allows you to "clear" a number of time
values
below a given resolution:
my $dt = DateTime.new('2005-02-01T15:20:35Z');
- say $dt.truncated-to(:hour); # 2005-02-01T15:00:00Z
+ say $dt.truncated-to(hour); # 2005-02-01T15:00:00Z
-An argument of C<:week> yields an object with the date of the last Monday
+Arguments to C<truncated-to> belong to the enum C<TimeUnit>, which
encompasses
+these values:
+
+ second seconds
+ minute minutes
+ hour hours
+ day days
+ week weeks
+ month months
+ year years
+
...
so looks like the docs are out of date. Patches to fix that would be
awesome!
Cheers,
