As of right now, I am the singular voter for variable traits. I just don't really see it, yet. I understand it, when it is used like:
my DVD $matrix is Scalar; # or
my DVD @disks is Array; # or, even
my DVD %disks is Hash;
I just get a little wary when I see something like:
my DVD $matrix is Media; # or
my CD @disks is Media;
I just don't know how that is going to work. For example, I know what this would do:
my DVD $matrix is Scalar;
$matrix = "I know Kung Fu";
But, I have no idea what this does or how to define what it does in the whimsical world or Perl 6:
my DVD $matrix is Media;
$matrix = "There is no spoon";
Anyone have insight?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
