I've installed the Win32 build of Pugs, but is appears to be incomplete. How

this still a good way to write stuff and learn today?
There is no real thing yet, which is why we're working on it

For other operators, non-assoc etc, the work will probably all have to
be linear. Eg difference|quotient|exponentiation.
That's why I would rename the left and right operator associativity
to left and right sequentiality. Note that there's a fundamental
difference

Not quite. The official grammar is in the pugs repo in src/perl6/, but
it can't really run on anything yet.
This is correct -- the official

IMHO pod2html is old and broken in various ways. I think you should
use the tools provided by Pod::Simple instead. For the Synopses on
feather, we're using the podhtml.pl script (based on
Pod::Simple::HTML):

Yes. I thought we have gone over this in the div/mod discussion that

HaloO,
I asked:
just re-reading S03 I saw that it defines the Rat to Int
conversion as truncation.
Hmm, does assuming floor semantics reveal the availability of
the tail function for Nums?
(-1.25).tail == 0.75
Can it also be used as an lvalue?
my Rat $x = -5/4; # note that this is

The context in which a subscript is evaluated is no longer controlled
by the sigil either. Subscripts are always evaluated in list context.
+(More specifically, they are evaluated in a variant of list context

In S02, If a buf type is initialized with a Unicode string value, the string
is decomposed into Unicode codepoints,...If any other conversion is desired, it
must be specified explicitly.
In S29, there is nothing about functions in Buf, and nothing about functions
that convert or initialize
The inevitable question - why not support Polish Notation or Reverse
Polish ? Well known to be easier to use, since it involves no
ambiguities in regard to association, is notationally clearer (not
needing parentheses). Seems to make it easier to analyze what one might
want to mean by

Well, all's fair if you predeclare, but a language whose main
expression format is prefix or postfix is no longer Perl. Maybe
Perlisp or Pforth. Plus, given the complex interactions of the
various operators, many of which don't look like operators, it's not
necessarily straightforward to
