Perl 5 does not have types, as far as I know.

I’m taking the GP seriously instead of dismissing it. Raku looks like more fun than nushell tbh.

Raku types are a bit thicker than paint https://gist.github.com/raiph/849a4a9d8875542fb86df2b2eda892...

    print 42 + 99;          # 141
    print &print.file ;     # ...src/core.c/io_operators.rakumod
    print &infix:<+>.file;  # ...src/core.c/Numeric.rakumod
    print ?CORE::<&print>;  # True

I barely understood these four example lines.
