People enjoyed last year's closures talks. This one goes further into applying closures with basic from Perl5 & extensions in Raku.Perl has "First Class" subs, but too few people realize what and how useful they are in both general and OO code. Last year we looked at some basic definitions, this talk looks at ways to apply closures in Perl5 & Raku for fun and profit for writing re-usable or more easily configurable code.Audience: Intermediate[]

Yo!, Workhorse Computing
I've been working with Perl since the 1990's, using it for everything but salads -- texture isn't quite right. Most of my work with Perl has been with web back ends, financial data, bioinformatics, sysadmin/DBA utilities, ETL, automation, and occasionally flying a quad-copter.
