Hi there!

I'm not so sure, to be honest. I'm still very fresh with Raku.

From what I've gathered so far, you'll take range when you just need two ends of a stick, and sequence, when you need the stick.

EDIT:
Sequence can also be characterised by the accented stickiness of the stick, to continue this sticky metaphor. It's accented even over the idea of its end, to the effect that if an end of the stick doesn't meet the stickiness, then it's ignored. Example:

0,  * + 2  ... 1

See, where it goes?

I wonder if it's grammatically possible to jump over both ends this way... (sic!)¹

1) ...like this...

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• 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).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
