This seems a little different than https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=130483 Digit resolves to the Numeric_Type property, whose uniprop-int value is 0 for non-numbers. <:Digit> and <:Numeric_Type> both match everything. Will need more investigation.

panda?

Hi All, I am using Fedora Core 25. There is no sign of "panda" in the repo (or I don't know what it is called). I need to install Net::FTP. No sign of that in the repos either (or I don't know what it is called either). How do I install Net::FTP? Many thanks, -T

Re: Need dynamic variables help

Hi, `+` is addition operator: https://docs.perl6.org/routine/$PLUS_SIGN#(Operators)_infix_+ String concatenation operator is `~`: https://docs.perl6.org/routine/$TILDE#(Operators)_infix_~ So you should write: print "Perl Version = " ~ $*PERL ~ "\n"; Or use `say` or `put` to add a newline: say

The most important difference is that the JIT version is 64 bit and the "no JIT" is 32 bit. So if you are running a modern Windows you almost certainly want the 64 bit (JIT) version Also the JIT version is a more recent version. S
