# Print itself

Not really sure what the point of this task is.

Is it supposed to be a quine?

```perl
my &f = {say $^s, $^s.raku;}; f "my \&f = \{say \$^s, \$^s.raku;}; f "
```

Or just a program that when executed echoes its source to STDOUT? (Here's probably the simplest valid program that when executed, echoes its source to STDOUT. It is exceptionally short: zero bytes; and when executed echoes zero bytes to STDOUT.)

Or are we supposed to demonstrate how to locate the currently executing source code file and incidentally, print it.

```perl
print $*PROGRAM.slurp
```

Whatever. Any of these satisfy the rather vague specifications.
