Hi All,
I have a test code in progress and I haven't figured out
how to get 'next' to work the way I want.
next if $Line.contains( "TASK type" );
works, but
if $Line.contains( "TASK type" ) {
next;
does not.
What am I missing?
Many thanks,

yes I know I still have some things to fix on it.

#!/usr/bin/env perl6

' <NAME type="P">Ted Moon</NAME>',

# for @Data -> $Line { say "$Line"; }
for @Data -> $Line {
# next if $Line.contains( "TASK type" );
if $Line.contains( "TASK type" ) {
next;
my $Name = $Line;
if $Name.contains( "NAME type" ) {
$Name ~~ s/.*?\>//;
$Name ~~ s/\<.*//;
say $Name;
}
}
}

That is what I want. If the current $line has "Task type" in
it, I want to jump to the next line in the array. What am
I missing?
