🦋 Welcome to the MAIN() IRC channel of the Raku Programming Language (raku.org). This channel is logged for the purpose of keeping a history about its development | evalbot usage: 'm: say 3;' or /msg camelia m: ... | Log inspection is getting closer to beta. If you're a beginner, you can also check out the #raku-beginner channel!

Nemokosch Is it intentional `when` doesn't exist as a statement modifier? 09:17
lizmat but it does? 09:21
m: $_ = 42; .say when 42
camelia 42
lizmat m: $_ = 42; .say when Int 09:22
camelia 42
lizmat m: given 42 { .say when Int }
camelia 42
Nemokosch well then 09:30
all I can say I found it earlier in a medium article about Perl than in the Raku documentation
Perhaps I misremembered that statement modifiers get a search entry; tbh it's not easy to notice unless you are explicitly checking it 09:32
[Coke] sees his name in review but was AFK for a few days 14:06

This book is about raku, and when the book was written, raku was also called perl6. This book introduces some ideas of raku design, and it is very beneficial for beginners to understand raku 16:50
uzl[m] kiti_nomad: There's an update version that reflects the name change: greenteapress.com/wp/think-perl-6/ 18:28
