Hi,
Per S09, we can write in Perl 6:
my int @x;
And the idea is that we get a packed array - conceptually, a single lump
of memory allocated and and storing a bunch of ints contiguously.
Contrast this to:
my Int @x;

With packed arrays, however, I'm less clear what they mean. Since
the point of a packed array is compact storage, there's no chance to
actually have containers. Thus does assignment to a slot in a

In the latter case, it's fairly clear how these differ:
@x[0] = 1;
@x[0] := 1;
In the first, we look up the container in slot 0 or the array and assign a 1
into it. In the second, we bind a 1 directly into the slot. There's no
container any more (so any future

AFAIK, this would cause no conflicts with
