Thanks moritz. I got confused and was thinking the {} was turning it into a reference when in fact the {} is part of the %{}. So it would need to be %{{%$ParamValues, %$ParamTypes}} if it was to work as I thought. The 1/8 confused me - I couldn't see where the 8 came from.

The `1/8` is the hash stringification. It means that 8 buckets are allocated, and one is used. perldata has the gory details. Perl 6 - second systems done right	[reply] [d/l]
