Its there a way, if you import a module that is also

If so, what is the syntax in the module and in the main program?

Hi All,
Is there a `Q[]` that can be used in a regex?
I am looking for how to get around
my $x = Q[\:\\::]; ( my $y = $x ) ~~ s/ '' /x/; say $y
\:x::
This does not work:
my $x = Q[\:\\::]; ( my $y = $x ) ~~ s/ Q[\\] /x/; say $y
\:\\::
Nor does this:
my $x = Q[\:\\::]; ( my $y = $x ) ~~

You already know that "$_" is the general default 'topic' variable

Should users of Raku be termed "Rakuuns"? :-)*
It has been said that any sound the human voice can utter is rude in
some language.
It is also rather obvious that people who acquire second and
subsequent languages informally tend to learn a very high proportion
of "taboo" expressions. (Possibly because in many cases their
principal source is
History lesson:
Rakudo is short for Rakuda Do
Rakuda Do is supposed to have meant "the way of the camel"
The first book about Perl was Learning Perl. It had a Camel on the front
cover.
(Note also that the name of the butterfly logo is named Camelia, and that
the first 5 characters spell Camel.)

Try something in the most wanted repo:

That way you will learn _and_ help the community.

If you define them in the top level of your module then all your subs have
access :
constant FOO = 2;
sub inc-by-foo( $a ) {
$a+FOO;
}

Is there a way to make constants universal inside a module, or
do I have to declare them inside every sub?
