> You’re looking for custom infix operators - see also [★ is not an operator](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/is-not-an-operator/20221). In short - no.

However, you have infinitely many choices available if you want to define a new infix operator: [On adjoints and custom postfix and infix operators - #35 by stevengj](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/on-adjoints-and-custom-postfix-and-infix-operators/12863/35)

(And there is even a hack to make completely arbitrary identifiers like `Foo` act infix-like, though I wouldn’t recommend using it in production code: see [Cursed Custom Infix Operators](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/cursed-custom-infix-operators/131915) and [InfixFunctions.jl](https://github.com/Ismael-VC/InfixFunctions.jl).)
