Yeaning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo
of night, it's the Raku study group:

Password: 4RakuRoll.
Note: we're using an earlier start time now, 1pm PST, to
make things a little easier for people
"The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our
wits to grow sharper." [1] Time for another Raku study group:

Note: we're experimenting with an earlier start time, 1pm California
subject, we're probably going to be
messing around with again with type contraints, where clauses,
subsets, and type coercion.

As usual, on Sunday afternoon at 2pm Pacific Standard Time, we're
going to be doing our usual Raku study group... since we're zooming
'em these days there's no reason not to publicize them wider:

These tend to be intermediate level
I was thinking about the cross-product operator the other day,
and I was wondering if there might be a convenient way of
filtering the resulting cartesian product to do something like a
database inner join:
my @level = ( godzilla => 9 ,gremlin => 3, hanuman => 5 );
my @origin = (
I don't know if it's related, but I was just having some trouble with
installs of LibCurl on an old linux box, I was getting errors like:
# at t/01-load.t6 line 7
# Cannot locate native library 'libcurl.so': libcurl.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory
But I had
he
syntax is less like English):
say so .any eq .any;
My solution would be just to always use parens on the junction functions:
say so any() eq any();

I was just playing around with junctions a bit today, and I
noticed that if you weren't religious about using parenthesis
with them you could get quietly tripped up:
say so any() eq any(); # True (as expected)
say so any() eq any(); # False (as expected)
say so any eq any ;
