TimToady when I do the infix:<min> and min= above in my pugs I get "*** Cannot cast from VInt 21 to Handle (VHandle)" 00:29
which might explain why evalbot eventually exited with a read error
mmm, it must be parsing it as $x min =21 00:30
that's going to be a rather irritating failure mode, I'm afraid... 00:31

TimToady lol 01:19
diakopter I wasn't thinking of how well the test cover the synopses, or how well the implementations cover the tests, or how well the tests cover the implementations, but on how well the implementation covers the synopses.
TimToady hmm, 3 John would be Jude...
3 John 2 rather
It always bugged me that books with only one chapter left out the 1: 01:20
chip odd the kinds of inconsistencies that nag
never bothered you that it wasn't "1 Acts"? 01:21
TimToady :)
chip was thrown off by the missing chapter too
TimToady Actually, I suppose Luke would be 0 Acts...
diakopter [particle]: ?

chip pick your actsis 01:22
TimToady rather pick my allies
chip comes up with an "all lies" chaining joke, but refrains 01:23
TimToady yeah, I thought of that one too. :)
diakopter: the only way to know that is to finish the test suite, and then look at the number of passing tests. 01:24

evalbot_r14757 Error: No compatible subroutine found: "&methods"
dduncan I tried something different and got it to work in my own pugs 04:14
in any event, it seems that my Perl 5 isn't doing split() properly, as far as I can tell ... trying to split on a vertical bar just splits as if it were an empty string ... each character becomes its own array element ... very weird
does the vertical bar have some special meaning in a literal string in Perl 5? 04:15
04:17 f0rth_ joined
chip dduncan: it has a special meaning in a regex 04:17
dduncan yes, but I said "split '|', @ary" 04:18
does split change that literal string into a regex?
chip dduncan: quote or slash, split works with regexes
dduncan okay
I just never encountered that behaviour before
thank you
chip backwhack it and you're golden
np
chip thinks we're both in the wrong channel 04:19
dduncan well I normally talk about Perl 6 here ... that was an odd exception
04:19 fayland__ joined, fayland__ is now known as fayland
dduncan in any event, I discovered that pugs treated the split argument as a literal string ... or the | was taken literally in Perl 6 regexes 04:20
separately ...
chip dduncan: perldoc -f split for the gory details, including the special case of split ' ' 04:21
dduncan I noticed that my Pugs now does certain things that used to require readline to do, such as up-arrow command repetition
and I don't have readline

dduncan avar, you want =:= 06:20
that lets you know if 2 symbols are aliases for the same container 06:21
the === operator will tell you if 2 containers hold appearances of the same universal value, which is different

Tokay morning 10:44
i don't know anything about perl, can you have embedded php?
Alias_ Can you embed PHP in Perl? 10:46
Yes
Tokay i made a random charactor script in php, someone has a perl script
validation script that is
or maybe i need to embed the perl into the php script 10:47
i'll have a play
Alias_ That seems terribly drastic
embedding like that is not something to do lightly
Tokay ok
Alias_ You know, that's probably a Perl module that does random characters for you
Tokay well i suppose i could convert the checking part of the script into perl
Alias_ there's
On CPAN I'm sure there's a random string generator 10:48
Tokay no i make the script and someone wants to use it with a script written in perl
made*
Alias_ Well, if you absolutely have to, use PHP::Interpreter 10:49
(the CPAN module)
search.cpan.org/perldoc?PHP::Interpreter
Tokay i might aswell convert it into perl
lambdabot Title: PHP::Interpreter - An embedded PHP5 interpreter - search.cpan.org, tinyurl.com/y9x7nw
Alias_ Tokay: Almost certainly you want to port it 10:50
Tokay phpfi.com/174897
Alias_ PHP::Interpreter is mainly for large apps where clients insist on PHP templating support
lambdabot Title: nopaste: pastebin with syntax highlighting
Tokay that's all i need to convert, i'm sure perl can use post
want to learn perl anyway 10:51
Alias_ Porting can be good for that 10:52
Tokay porting?
Alias_ Converting a program from one thing to another things
But doing the same task 10:53

PerlJam reads "The Dream of a Perfect Language" in lieu of Eco's book 16:21
PerlJam thinks perl is asymptotically approaching "perfect" as far as computer languages go 16:29
16:33 HiTech69 joined 16:35 elmex joined
Debolaz PerlJam: Perfect being the ability to express your thoughts as directly as possible? :) 16:39
PerlJam well ... more like "prefect" in the sense that I can bend my mind around it when necessary such that I've come to think in perl occasionally. 16:40
TimToady point is, "blurfl" may express my thoughts perfectly, but it doesn't communicate 16:42
16:42 eggzeck[laptop] joined 16:44 klausen joined 16:45 andara joined
TimToady you know, if we want Perl 6 to succeed, all we have to do is start the rumor that it was separately designed by 70 hermit/scholars who then came together and found that their results agreed perfectly. 16:45
lde TimToady: everyone said "lisp"? ;-) 16:54
sjn would like to propose a new Perl6 meme: "Reverseengineerability" 16:56
(have no idea if it's actually new, but if Perl6 could be made easy to reverse engineer, then I'd be happy :) 16:57
16:58 aufrank joined
aufrank hi hi 16:58
TimToady reversible transformations are definitely one of the things we're thinking about.
howdy
lde the best thing that could be done is making obfuscators programmers life a bit harder i guess 16:59
aufrank does anyone know of a debian package for ghc 6.6 that will give me a ghc suitable for building pugs?
sjn how about reversible compilation? (i.e. s/language compilation/language translation/g) 17:00
17:00 thepler joined
aufrank I'm on ubuntu. I installed the ghc 6.6 from debian unstable, but it didn't have the extralibs built 17:00
TimToady sjn: you have to be careful not to throw away important information to be fully reversible. And certainly there are poeple who want to throw away the information because it contains trade secrets. 17:01
*people
aufrank nm, actually read the ghc download page 17:02
sjn is more concerned with making free software easier to dissect and understand :) 17:03
TimToady Ide: I've worked on some of the obfuscated examples in pugs/examples, and it does appear that it's slightly harder to obfuscate in P6. At least, the examples in question were more readable. Balancing that is that the examples were just using P5 idioms rather than P6.
sjn: if the author agrees to that, we should try to help. but I think we shouldn't force it on people. 17:04
I just want Perl to be useful, and that includes proprietary as well as free software.
sjn no forcing is necessary. just like everyone is free to strip(1) symbols from a compiled program... :) 17:06
TimToady I am, after all, part of the reason we ended up with the term "open source" as distinct from "free software".
so I believe in it for practical reasons more than ideological reasons. 17:07
sjn hmf. I need to go (stupid me to start a thought just before I have to leave :-P)
sjn will be back :) 17:08
