Patrick correctly observed:
On Rakudo on my system, sqrt(2) indeed produces a Num,
but since floating point arithmetic doesn't result in
sqrt(2) / 1 == 2 / sqrt(2), no geometric sequence is deduced
and the sequence fails with unable to deduce sequence.
Although, arguably, that might be

I think this ought to work, but for some reason Rakudo on my system
hangs whenever I try it.
The problem was that infix:!=
But unless we twist smartmatching semantics for that purpose,
No!
Please, no.

it means we cannot do the same fuzziness for the endpoint,
Except that we will be encouraging people to use: * = $END
as their standard endpoint pattern, which will provide
most of the necessary fuzz.
So

1. The semicolon operator would allow Perl 6 to support N-dimensional
arrays... How would one iterate over that type of array?
my num @matrix[ 10 ; 10 ; 10 ];
I ask because a natural extension is to add arithmetic operators and
you have the beginnings of a Matlab-like

The shaped arrays/hashes parts of S09 have been in the planning
stages a long time in Rakudo. They've had to wait for better MOP and
better native-types handling (which is another part of S09), but now
the time for shaped arrays/hashes
