Given the enumeration
enum NATO (:alpha<A>, :bravo<B>, :charlie<C>, :delta<D>);
it's possible to easily set a variable by literally typing one of the names, or by passing one of the values to the enum object:
my $a = alpha;
my $b = NATO('B');
say $a; # ↪︎ alpha
say $b; # ↪︎ bravo
say $a.value; # ↪︎ A
say $b.value; # ↪︎ B
Besides using EVAL and given a Str that corresponds to one of the enums, how could I create $c to be an enum value equivalent to charlie?
my $x = 'charlie';
my $c = ...

You can use indirect name lookup:
enum NATO (:alpha<A>, :bravo<B>, :charlie<C>);
my $x = 'charlie';
my $c = ::($x);
say $c.value;

You can treat it as a Hash:

Ah, I needed the double colon. I definitely had tried just using theNATO$xto no avail. Thanks for a great alternate answer (it's longer than @ugexe 's, but for situations where::($x)won't make it obvious what's going on,Foo::$xwill make it crystal clear.
