Hello monks,
Here is again a simple one. But couldn't find any answer in any tags.
What I want is just to get out an array from split function and apply smartmatch operator over it.
My major purpose is to do the work with fewer and fewer variables within the code, that is why I am interested in this.
This is just an example to get clear picture.
Now this code works fine.
perl -e 'use v5.14;$a=3456; my @all=split (//,$a);print "Yes" if 3 ~~ 
+@all;'

But this fails.
perl -e 'use v5.14;$a=3456; print "Yes" if 3 ~~ split (//,$a);'

I want to eliminate that @all array there. It might be possible using 'grep' or 'any' or 'regex' or any of those List utility type modules. But is there any way I can simply impose a list context on split function.
The doc of smartmatch says that smartmatch operator looks at the RHS to see if that is an array and then uses grep.

Any ARRAY smartmatch each ARRAY element[ 3] like: grep { Any ~~ $_ } ARRAY
