$z++; # is the same as $z = $z + 1;
$z--; # is the same as $z = $z - 1;
$z = 23 ** 2; # exponentiation
say $z; # 529
The Perl 6 Tricks and Treats newsletter has been around for a while.
If you are interested to get special notification when there is new content
on this site, it is the best way to keep track:
This is a newsletter temporarily running on my personal site (szabgab.com) using Mailman,
till I implement an alternative system in Perl 6.
