Either use `rw` or `raw`
Use `rw` if you need it to be mutable.
Use `raw` if you just want to make sure you are getting the actual variable.
That really only applies to `$` parameters though.
---
`@` and `%` parameters are `raw` already.
sub pop-random( @_ ) {
@_.splice( (0..@_.elems).pick, 1 )
}
my @deck = 1..10;
say pop-random @deck; # 7
say @deck; # [1 2 3 4 5 6 8 9 10]
