   Hello,   
      
      
      
   More of my philosophy about Raku, formerly known as Perl6..   
      
   I am a white arab from Morocco, and i think i am smart since i have also   
   invented many scalable algorithms and algorithms..   
      
      
   Raku, formerly known as Perl6, is a very interesting,    
   very powerful programming language that represents the    
   next evolution of Perl.    
      
   In my opinion, it fixes many of the problems with Perl5.    
   the features of Raru on their own are pretty compelling.   
      
   It has most of the features you would expect in most    
   modern programming languages:    
      
   Classes, first-class functions, asynchronous programming,    
   and all the normal structured programming stuff—in addition    
   to the normal Perl stuff with regular expressions and string manipulation.   
      
   However, it also has a lot of features that are not found    
   in many other languages, and certainly not usually in the same    
   one.   
      
   Optional typing. Similar to TypeScript or Julia, types may be declared, but   
   are not required. Unlike Python, declared types will be enforced.   
      
   Pattern matching. Like Haskell, different function definitions can be defined   
   for different input values.   
      
   Multiple dispatch. Like Julia or Common Lisp, different function bodies can be   
   defined for different sets of argument types (a bit like pattern matching, but   
   on types instead of values).   
      
   Lazily-generated sequences, like Haskell or Clojure.   
      
   Lisp-like AST macros.   
      
   Junctions—a feature unique to Raku as far as I know, but similar to    
   sum types (a.k.a. algebraic data types or variant types). However,    
   Junction types are more than merely a sum, and may include logical expressions   
   in their definitions.   
      
   Built in syntax for defining grammars and generating parsers.   
      
   Raku is a weird confluence of Perl-like features and extremely sophisticated   
   abstractions to come out of programming language research.    
      
   Raku is a language that has it all.   
      
   It somehow fits. Where Perl has always been the poster-child for dealing with   
   patterns and strings, Raku extends ideas about patterns into other aspects of   
   the language; The type system, function dispatches, and even to the code of   
   the program itself. Itâ   
   €™s almost as if the entire language is some kind of engine for reasoning   
   about patterns—both textual and symbolic.   
      
   Python uses a global interpreter lock, you can't execute two threads at the   
   same time. Raku, formerly known as Perl6, can.   
      
   Raku, formerly known as Perl6, has a great chance of adoption for a variety of   
   reasons. There are no popular dynamic languages with a working concurrency   
   model (I'm looking at you, GIL); Perl 6 has a working concurrency model. With   
   Moore's law coming to    
   an end,    
   this is a huge advantage. Further, it goes far beyond the primitive threads   
   and locks which languages tend to offer.    
      
      
   I'd also point out that it has a very advanced OO model which pretty much   
   leaves most competitors in the dust. On top of that, your classes have fewer   
   lines of code and are easier to read.   
      
   I am also working with Raku, formerly known as Perl6, and i invite you    
   to download the following interesting book about Raku in a PDF format so that   
   to learn it:   
      
   https://greenteapress.com/wp/think-perl-6/   
      
   And you can download the stable version of Raku, formerly known as Perl6, from   
   the following website:

   Thank you,   
   Amine Moulay Ramdane.
