Create an HTML table

The below example is kind of boring, and laughably simple. For more interesting/complicated examples see:

Show_Ascii_table#Raku - (simple)

Mayan_numerals#Raku - (heavy styling)

Rosetta_Code/Count_examples/Full_list - (multi-column sortable)

Rosetta_Code/List_authors_of_task_descriptions/Full_list - (complex nested tables)

Note: the above examples are outputting wikitable formatting, not HTML directly. It's pretty much a one-for-one shorthand notation though and the principles and process are the same.

This is certainly not the only or best way to generate HTML tables using Raku; just an example of one possible method.

my @header =  <&nbsp; X Y Z>;
my $rows = 5;

sub tag ($tag, $string, $param?) { return "<$tag" ~ ($param ?? " $param" !! '') ~ ">$string" ~ "</$tag>" };

my $table = tag('tr', ( tag('th', $_) for @header));

for 1 .. $rows -> $row { 
    $table ~=  tag('tr', ( tag('td', $row, 'align="right"')
    ~ (tag('td', (^10000).pick, 'align="right"') for 1..^@header)));  
}

say tag('table', $table, 'cellspacing=4 style="text-align:right; border: 1px solid;"');
