[06:14] <disbot4> <comborico> "When array and hash variables appear directly in a double-quoted string (and not inside curly braces), they are only interpolated if their name is followed by a postcircumfix operator — a bracketing pair that follows a statement. It's also ok to have a method call between the variable name and the postcircumfix."  I'm confused by the "a bracketing pair that follows a statement" part.  Is it  "blah blah blah %table^"

[06:14] <disbot4>  or "blah blah blah %table^{}?

[06:17] <disbot4> <comborico> Oh, nevermind.  Examples are given just below that clears it up, except I thought circumflex was the carrot.  Seems to be a different thing.

[15:12] <avuserow> comborico: circum_flex_ is the carrot ^ , circum_fix_ is basically a prefix/suffix pair. Raku primarily uses this for symbols, like brackets, parentheses, and braces. so postcircumfix is any bracketing thing that comes after a variable (or expression): `$a[0]`, `$a<b>`, `foo(){$bar}`

[15:37] <disbot4> <comborico> I like that titles given to some of the users here.  It makes the room feel more like a coordinated effort -- like the Rebel Alliance forces on the ice planet Hoth.

[16:27] <disbot4> <librasteve> err the carrot is the caret of course

[19:52] <disbot4> <comborico> Does anyone know where to find more examples like https://docs.raku.org/language/101-basics.  I see some stuff by uzluisf and ohmycloudy, but it isn't as in-depth as 101.

[20:56] <disbot4> <librasteve> @comborico - i guess you have looked here https://raku.org/learn (and specifically the exercism / rosetta examples) ... the closest examples depthwise I would think are the other tutorials https://docs.raku.org/language/classtut and https://docs.raku.org/language/grammar_tutorial

[20:58] <disbot4> <librasteve> failing that, I propose a book - I really like https://greenteapress.com/wp/think-perl-6/ fwiw

[21:02] <disbot4> <comborico> Wonderful!  Thank you again!
