HaloO,
I'll just use what Paul Seamons wrote:
Consider:
method foo {
.do_one_thing
.and_another_thing
map { $_.do_something_with( .bar ) } .items;
# .bar worked on the invocant - not the items
.and_the_last_thing
}
because I don't have to invent examples

Assuming you meant $three instead of three.
Indeed. Sorry.
my $five = 5;
$four = 4; # $one == 4 now?
No, $four (and thus $three, which it is bound to) is now 4. $three is a
reference, which is a value, which is now *replaced* with the new value.
OK. Then you need to

References and aliasing should have nothing to do with type
For some reason, I keep typing :=: instead of =:=. Do other people
experience similar typo-habits with new operators?
One of my other Perl 6 typo-habits is <<^H^Hargh!^H^H^H^H^H«, but that's
because I like how « and » look, but can't yet easily type them.

Hi,
I remembered Damian saying that pick does not only work on junctions,
but on arrays and hashes, too (and I even found his posting :):
http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=420DB295.3000902%40conway.org).
Are the following assumptions correct?
my $junc = 1|2|3;
print $junc.pick; # "1", "2"

I think we've been over this ground before, but if you use EMACS, you'll
find this handy:

I'd assume in all cases that pick returns an *alias*, and in the case of
hashes, an alias to the pair:
:set encoding=utf8
:set fileencoding=utf8
The first controls the display, the second file saves. Vim has to have been
compiled with multibyte support, though.

A Perl 5 user thinks of flattening a data structure as taking
something which is nested and "linearizing" it.
FOR EXAMPLE:
use Data::Hash::Flatten;
# NESTED DATA
my $a = { bill => { '5/27/96' => { 'a.dat' => 1, 'b.txt' => 2,
'c.lsp' => 3 } },
jimm => { '6/22/98' => { 'x.prl'
The first discussion of flattening had to do with a list of data being
flattened into an array.
Further down we see another different use of the word "flattening" :
http://dev.perl.org/perl6/synopsis/S06.html
section="Flattening lists">
The unary prefix operator * flattens its operand
I'd assume you'd get an *alias* to a random pair:
# Test error-correction
for 1..$entropy_threshhold {
%hash.pick.value = rand $scribble_factor;
}

I'd assume in all cases that pick returns an *alias*, and in the case of
hashes, an alias to the pair:
Yikes. Sorry about the ressends... my email client kept dying and I

I agree.
Likewise, "slurping" is probably best explained as collecting.
