Routines are one of the means Raku has to reuse code. They come in several forms, most notably Methods, which belong in classes and roles and are associated with an object; and functions (also called subroutines or Subs, for short), which can be called independently of objects.| docs.raku.org
Raku provides a rich built-in syntax for defining and using classes. It makes writing classes expressive and short for most cases, but also provides mechanisms to cover the rare corner cases.| docs.raku.org
Variables are symbolic names for values or containers. Variable declarations or assignment of values may create a container on the fly. Variable names can start with or without a special character called a sigil, followed optionally by a second special character named twigil and then an identifier.| docs.raku.org
