For quite a long time, I have been wondering why I like to code in Raku so much … in a round about way you set me thinking. Perhaps it’s because, in Raku, precision, performance and determinism take a back seat to expediency. (Sorry for the tangent).




Wow, Raku looks like a really interesting language, I'd never heard of it before!

Have you used it in any large projects?


Had you heard of Perl 6?

Perl I used in 2008 or so but not since. Haven't come across Perl 6.

Perl 6 = Raku.
