Re: RFC 56 (v1) Optional 2nd argument to pop() and shift

[Aaron J Mackey]

proposed:

@b = pop @a, $n;

should this be equivalent to:

@b = splice @a, -$n; # no longer a LIFO queue

or :

@b = reverse splice @a, -$n; # still a LIFO queue


I guess it all depends on what you then do with @b, but you get my drift.
This should be addressed, one way or another.
