[06:33] <habere-et-disper> Somehow I thought a list of pairs was a hash and was surprised I needed to cast it. Too much composing going on. :-) I suppose a list is still ordered but a hash isn't.

[07:13] <lizmat> if you iterate over a hash, it will produce a Seq of Pairs...  but its order is undeterminable, except if the number of Pairs in the Hash is 0 or 1  :-)

[11:35] <lizmat> .oO( is this a test ?  :-)

[11:36] <ab5tract> Fat fingers, I’m afraid

[17:16] <disbot4> <comborico> All I know, is that Lists are immutable in Raku.

[17:20] <disbot4> <comborico> Do you have a specific number in mind?  Say 75?

[19:29] <disbot4> <comborico> You've gotta be careful using the Whatever Star at some places: say (*/2)(4);

[19:29] <disbot4> <comborico> That won't work if there is a space between parens.

[19:30] <lizmat> Lists are indeed immutable in the sense that pop / shift / unshift / push don't work

[19:30] <lizmat> but they (sadly from an optimizing point of view) *can* contain mutable containers

[19:32] <disbot4> <comborico> Hmm. Good to know!  Thanks!

[19:32] <lizmat> this is needed for things like:

[19:32] <lizmat> m: my $a = 42; my $b = 666; ($a,$b) = ($b,$a); dd $a, $b

[19:32] <camelia> rakudo-moar 7cb5a1939: OUTPUT: «$a = 666␤$b = 42␤»

[19:34] <disbot4> <comborico> Ok, thanks!\

[19:35] <disbot4> <comborico> Searching "whatever" or "star" doesn't work in  Docs.  I thought that was odd.
