in thread Will Perl6 be able to do this kind of logic?
There is no stopping an idea whose time has come. :-)
Yeah, it makes sense...a whole bunch of us schoolboys were set on the task of mathematically modelling the universe, right down to the infinitesimal point level. Like in most things math related, eventually everyone comes to the same model...... living objects, each containing an infinite vector space. Of course, then you must consider interactions... and you come up with how sets work.
I was talking to an old schoolbuddy about it, he is into Social Work, while I was into physics. We both ended up mentioning set dynamics as the key to understanding.
I find it somewhat serendipitous, that in the programming model, as well as the physical model, the basic unit is a thread.
Another interesting thing, is the model also emulates humans....each our own process, with shared memories, and infinite variability. So it's almost as if we modelled ourselves to understand the cosmic. Philosopher know thyself, eh?
