<p>At the risk of getting negative points here, just because people do not agree with me, I'll still answer your question ...</p>
<p>In <i>my</i> logic, which I explained in detail in the link passed in the previous post, the only correct way to call a function is:</p>
<code>
my $result = function ($arg1, $arg2);
^</code>
<p>A function name <b>must</b> be separated by the opening paren by whitespace. The parens are there to group the arguments, not to signal that <c>function</c> is a function.</p>
<p>As perl6 has decided that "It is a function if it looks like a function" now excludes the way <i>I</i> see as the only correct way, perl6 has definitely lost a user: me.</p>
<p>Some perl6 programmers tell me that I can create my own grammar(s), but that is completely besides the point. If I cannot write code the (only) way I think is logical (and beautiful), then I've lost one very very important factor in coding: FUN!</p>
