Re: Tip: hash indexing

Thanks, your script enticed me to explore different ways of constructing a hash table. I dimly recall something about map having access to an index variable, but couldn't find it documented so maybe I was dreaming. The process of figuring out these approaches highlighted that so much perl6 document

Sweet!I added a reverse print to the pile! #!/usr/bin/env perl6 #`{ Hashes do not print in the order they are created. it is a Perl 6 thing. To overcome this, create an index of the hash. } my @SmtpIndex = qw[ DebugTrace smtp port username password from to Subject Text FileName ];

Though this seems to be heading the wrong way but - TIMTOWTDI my @SmtpIndex = qw[ DebugTrace smtp port username password from to Subject Text FileName ]; my @SmtpValues = ["1", "smtps://smtp.zoho.com", "465", 'la...@zoho.com', "NaYukYukYuk", 'la...@zoho.com', @['cu...@zoho.com','m...@zoho.com']

The suggested solution to this thread seems odd to me. It confuses a storage structure with information about the elements, and doesn't use the power of perl6. An associative array is useful because non-integer indexes are possible and hashing makes storage efficient. This makes referencing da
