I'm trying to make ¬ a logical negation operator.
¬ True;
multi sub prefix:<¬> ($n) {
return not $n;
}
When I run the above program, it returns this error:
$ perl6 test.pl6 ===SORRY!=== Error while compiling /home/devXYZ/test.pl6 Bogus statement at /home/devXYZ/test.pl6:1 ------> <BOL>⏏¬ True; expecting any of: prefix term
Does anyone know what the cause might be?

Declaration − A variable declaration with a variable name with an object type. Instantiation − The 'new' keyword is used to create the object. Initialization − The 'new' keyword is followed by a call to a constructor. This call initializes the new object.
No, unfortunately you cannot define new operators—you can only overload existing operators (with a few important exceptions, such as operator. ).
An Example of allocating array elements using “new” operator is given below: int* myarray = NULL; myarray = new int[10]; Here, new operator allocates 10 continuous elements of type integer to the pointer variable myarray and returns the pointer to the first element of myarray.
When new is used to allocate memory for a C++ class object, the object's constructor is called after the memory is allocated. Use the delete operator to deallocate the memory allocated by the new operator.
The declaration of the new operator must appear before its usage. Changing the program to:
multi sub prefix:<¬> ($n) {
return not $n;
}
say ¬ True;
Makes it work fine.
Perl 6 has strict one-pass parsing rules. Therefore, order matters with anything that influences the language being parsed - such as by introducing a type or a new operator.
