in reply to Thoughts on some new operators for perl (6 or 7)

You may want to fix the typo: Your line should read:

$lowest = $_ if $_ < $highest

$lowest = $_ if $_ < $lowest;
You also need a semicolon on the previous line.

Other than that - yes - this seems somewhat useful, but I'd probably not remember the syntax when I needed to use it, so I'm ambivalent about promoting it. Thanks for sharing the idea, though.
