What is the superstition about 3 lights off 1 match being bad luck?

Frequently asked questions - FAQ 201 -250

What is a match?

MatchView Frequently Asked Questions
A match is a donor or cord blood unit with specific HLA markers that are the same as yours. Research has found that a small number of HLA markers are most important to transplant outcomes. These are the markers transplant doctors look at when they match donors with patients. The best available donor or cord blood unit may match you at all or at most of the HLA markers your doctor looks at. Many patients who receive an unrelated donor transplant have a partially matched donor or cord blood unit.

How is @x = (1, 2, 3) different from @y := (1, 2, 3) ?

AnnoCPAN - Perl6::FAQ::Capture
The := operator binds its left hand side (a Signature object) to its right hand side (a Capture object), so the latter form is akin to: y := (1,2,3); # slurpy @ @y := ((1,2,3):); # list as invocant @y := ((1,2,3),); # list as first positional @y := (y => (1,2,3)); # named binding
