#!/usr/bin/env perl6
use v6;
my $x = "Hello";
my $y = "World";
# ~ is the concatenation operator, attaching one string after the other
my $z = $x ~ " " ~ $y; # the same as "$x $y"
say $z; # Hello World
my $w = "Take " ~ (2 + 3);
say $w; # Take 5
say "Take 2 + 3"; # Take 2 + 3
say "Take {2 + 3}"; # Take 5
$z ~= "! "; # the same as $z = $z ~ "! ";
say "'$z'"; # 'Hello World! '
~ concatenates two strings.
As it can be seen from the above example any operation can be interpolated into a string using the curly brace syntax.
