Routines #
Signatures are reproduced from the documentation, including their declared return types. A routine listed here is part of the type's published interface; whether Raku++ implements it is a separate question, answered by the examples below.
method illegal #
method illegal returns Str:D
Returns the name of the control flow command that was called.
method enclosing #
method enclosing returns Str:D
Returns the name of the missing enclosing construct.
Examples, run three ways #
Every example below comes from the official documentation, together with the output that documentation asserts. Each was then executed by Rakudo and by Raku++ when this page was built. Where the three agree, one result is shown; where they do not, all three are — because which of them is wrong is exactly the information worth having.

Raku++ disagrees with both the documentation and Rakudo — a defect.
