wolfman2000 | Evening. ...man, masak isn't here. drat. | ||
Viper550: I occasionally check up on this room to see how Perl6 is coming along. I know some web framework code was in development, so I wanted to check up on that. | 02:21 | ||
However, the main person to speak to on that, masak, isn't around right now | |||
Viper550 | catalyst? | ||
wolfman2000 | That's Perl5 | ||
And...I've had issues with catalyst in the past. | |||
More of them were on me than the framework, however | |||

Rakudo release #34 came out today. A new Rakudo Star release is due next week. | 02:28 | ||
wolfman2000 | Any ETAs til...let me think of the term...well, a proper beta? | ||
02:29
masonkramer left
|
|||
PerlJam | wolfman2000: I don't quite understand what that means. What's "proper" to you may not be "proper" to me (or anyone else). | 02:29 | |
Util | wolfman2000: Perl 6 will not have traditional alpha/beta/release cycles. | ||
wolfman2000 | Util: Please remind me of the terminology meant for here | ||
Util is up late with a cold; take the following with a *small* grain of salt. | 02:31 | ||
wolfman2000 | *nods* | ||
Util | Each Rakudo release (not R Star) strives to be production quality, without being feature-complete. | 02:32 | |
02:33
wormwood_ is now known as wormwood
|
|||
Util | So, if you are able to sling some customizing, and everything that Rakudo currently *does* is the feature set you need, then R is "release quality" | 02:33 | |
Rakudo Star adds "all parts included, no customizing skills needed" spit-and-polish. | 02:34 | ||
If you need part of the Perl 6 spec that Rakudo does not implement yet (like threading/concurrency), then to you, Rakudo is not even pre-alpha | 02:35 | ||
wolfman2000 | Is there...well, a checklist of sorts to see what has been implemented? | 02:36 | |
Util | If you need speed comparable to Perl 5, then Rakudo is not "release quality" for you. | ||
See perl6.org | 02:37 | ||
The "synopsis" are really the Specs, and there are linked to test results for each section of the spec. | |||
Very cool | |||
jasonmay | what is the equivalent of a 4-arg select (or IO::Select) in rakudo star? | 02:38 | |
wolfman2000 | okay, these docs look a bit familiar. | ||

wolfman2000 | ...not implemented yet. parsefail | 02:39 | |
so named_array isn't up | |||
Util | Right! Thanks for saving me the typing! | 02:40 | |
wolfman2000 | I have dabbled a bit in Perl 5 and 6 before...I can at least recognize some of the tests | 02:41 | |
Util | jasonmay: I don't know. Let me look at the spec | ||
jasonmay | I guess I'm not too worried about non-blocking sockets for now | 02:43 | |
looks like I could just use IO::Socket::INET | |||
wnated to try my hand at learning the language by making a small MUD :) | |||
Util | jasonmay: Good, because [S32]/IO says that all forms of select() have been removed, but I do not see any mention of a replacement (like poll()). | 02:44 | |
[S16] is the main IO spec, but it is not complete yet. | 02:45 | ||
jasonmay | I really like how the IO stuff is set up internally | 02:46 | |
Util | jasonmay: If you built it, please let us know. You will have some performance/size issues in the short term, but things are improving each month. | ||
We only recently started looking at performance *at* *all*! | 02:47 | ||
jasonmay | :) | 02:48 | |
Util | I have not poked around at the IO internals, but if they are anything like the rest of the system, they are beautiful. | ||
colomon | rakudo: sub named_array(:@x) { +«@x }; say named_array(:x(3, "5", 4)).perl; | ||
p6eval | rakudo : OUTPUT«[3, 5, 4]» | ||
Util | wolfman2000, jasonmay, Viper550: dabblers should be aware of the new site: try.rakudo.org/ ; it has read-eval-print loop with multiline memory *in* the browser. | 02:50 | |
colomon | Util, wolfman2000: Actually, the parsefail message there is nonsense. It parses just fine atm, but the tests have normal fails. Most of the issue seems to be that the tests expect :x to be like @x = (), but rakudo treats it as @x = Bool::True. | 02:56 | |
wolfman2000 | ...I wonder if an empty array/list is supposed to be true in this language | 02:57 | |
Util | colomon: thanks for the piece of mind; I grab that as a good example of something that worked, and typed before checking that it *did* work. | ||
Viper550 | me and wolfman2000 were trying to pick a scripting language for a new forum script | 02:58 | |
wolfman2000 | Viper550: I don't think Perl 6 is ready for us yet | 02:59 | |
It was worth a shot though. Some languages grow by leaps and bounds | |||

colomon | interesting LTA error here. | 10:18 | |
ah, I see | |||
"Too many positional parameters passed; got 2 but expected 1" | |||
the problem was I left the ($/) off of my action method declaration. | |||
moritz_ | well, why is it LTA? | 10:19 | |
colomon | I guess it does all make sense. | ||
moritz_ | (it could include that one of the two is the invocant) | ||
colomon | moritz_: took me 30 minutes to figure out what was going on, for one thing. :) | ||
I think including that one of the two was the invocant would definitely have helped | 10:20 | ||
I guess if I'd looked at the line number given, I'd have seen that it was | 10:21 | ||
method rest { | |||
if it had said | 10:22 | ||
at 'ABC::Actions::tuplet' at line 46:lib/ABC/Actions.pm | |||
called from 'ABC::Grammar::tuplet' at line 41:lib/ABC/Grammar.pm | |||
moritz_ | it didn't include the name of the method that was being called? | 10:23 | |
colomon | (both lines actually started with "in ABC::") | ||
moritz_ | then it was LTA | ||
colomon | it did include it | ||
moritz_ | rakudo: say 'b'.uc("f) | ||
p6eval | rakudo : OUTPUT«===SORRY!===Unable to parse postcircumfix:sym<( )>, couldn't find final ')' at line 22» | ||
moritz_ | rakudo: say 'b'.uc("f") | ||
p6eval | rakudo : OUTPUT«No applicable candidates found to dispatch to for 'uc'. Available candidates are::(Mu ;; *%_) in main program body at line 22:/tmp/rSo3GvkQWL» | ||
colomon | but there wasn't any indication that that was the problem | ||
if that makes sense | |||
rakudo: sub foo { say "foo"; }; foo(10) | 10:24 | ||
p6eval | rakudo : OUTPUT«Too many positional parameters passed; got 1 but expected 0 in 'foo' at line 1:/tmp/2rBAkERPBB in main program body at line 22:/tmp/2rBAkERPBB» | ||

colomon | Like that | ||
if it had had the "no applicable candidates" message, I'd have instantly figured it out | |||
10:24
am0c^ left
|
|||
colomon | I dunno, maybe as I do more p6 hacking it will become obvious to me. | 10:25 | |
moritz_ | well, if it didn't include the method name, it's a bug | ||
colomon | but the message as is didn't make me think "the first line is the function it was trying to call" | 10:26 | |
it did include the method name, but it was as part of the backtrace | |||
that made me think the problem was something called from there, not the calling of that method | 10:27 | ||
moritz_ | hm | ||
colomon | all the information was definitely present | ||
it's just the that form of it didn't point me at the answer | |||
in the future I'll know better (I hope) | 10:28 | ||
but that's why I say LTA. :) | |||
moritz_ | feel free to submit | ||
colomon | rakudo: class A { method b() { } };A.new.b(3) | 10:29 | |
p6eval | rakudo : OUTPUT«Too many positional parameters passed; got 2 but expected 1 in 'A::b' at line 22:/tmp/vIlWzJwEGo in main program body at line 22:/tmp/vIlWzJwEGo» | ||

moritz_ | masak: my vocabulary coach now keeps state, and removes any words from the current session if it has been answered 5 times correctly in a row | 10:47 | |
masak | \o/ | ||
that corresponds approximately to what I used to do manually when studying 汉字 | |||
moritz_ | when I do it manually with cards, I have three "generations" | 10:48 | |
one I know so well that I don't have to think about; those I set aside | |||
then one generation where I'm reasonably certain, but it's pretty new (or little-used) knowledge | |||
and one generation with new or unknown words | |||

jnthn | Damm, why'd you have to change it :P | 11:18 | |
masak | I guess we had to bring Swedish closer to the IKEA ideal of simplicity. | 11:19 | |
jnthn | I guess it does make assembling sentences easier. :P | 11:20 | |
meh, lamers | |||
Only four cases! | |||
Even in old Swedish. | |||
:-) | |||
masak | :) | ||
jnthn | Slovak had six. :-) | ||
*has | |||
masak | I think we've never been big believers in cases. | 11:21 | |
OTOH, the four we had, we really used to the fullest. | |||
jnthn | I fully concede that dropping them makes the langauge easier to learn. :-) | 11:22 | |
masak | there's a waterbed thing going on between cases and prepositions. arguably, the latter is easier for foreigners to learn. | ||
jnthn | A word is, for most people, much easier than a set of rules. | 11:23 | |
And anyway, many uses of case in Slovak were tied to the preoposition too. | 11:24 | ||
"If you use this prep, but teh following noun into the X case" | |||
masak | right. and sometimes one prep can go with many cases. | 11:25 | |
it's a bit like a named parameter accepting different types, through several defined multies. | 11:26 | ||
multis* | |||
jnthn | :-) | ||
masak | see, we're almost not off-topic at all! :P | ||
jnthn | Oddly, I seem to quite naturally find myself considering them two prepositions that happen to have the same spelling. | ||
masak | huh. interesting. | ||
jnthn | It's still more interesting that debating the differences between compilers and interpreters. :P | 11:27 | |
masak | I don't, but that's probably because I don't speak any such languages. not even German. | ||

PerlJam | masak: more Perly Goodness? | 13:43 | |
colomon | I assumed we'd cover different topics | ||
or at least, different takes on topics | |||
PerlJam | right. | ||
masak | so, a repeat of last year, but with different topics. | ||
mkramer | what is C<$thing>? | ||
PerlJam | mkramer: a scalar? Are you asking about the C<> notation? | 13:44 | |
masak | mkramer: could you give some more context? | ||
mkramer | I'd be stoked for an advent calendar | ||
the C<> notation | |||
masak | mkramer: that's Pod for "this is code". | ||
mkramer | for instance, in the recent "Tweaking Junctions" post | ||
ahh, alright | |||

SpiceMan | so I inferred there must be some kind of libraries, that are not exactly part of the language but provide functionality | 15:10 | |
like perl 5 core modules | |||
flussence | get Rakudo Star, and have a look at some of the .pm files that come with it | ||
moritz_ | SpiceMan: currently there are three kind of core modules... | ||
SpiceMan | that's what I'm looking for, exaclty | ||
so, I enetered a random library dir, and it had pir files :p | 15:11 | ||
moritz_ | those that you don't need to load, built into the compiler (like utf8 or UNIVERSALin perl5) | ||
those that you need to load, but that ship with the compiler (only Test.pm at the moment) | |||
flussence | (they *were* pretty deep down the filesystem tree, last time I checked...) | ||
moritz_ | and those that only ship with distributions, not with the compiler | ||
masak | Set.pm will be of the second type, too. loading it will get you Unicode operators. | ||
moritz_ | maybe I should blog about that | 15:12 | |
masak | moritz_: yes, please. | ||
also, please find good terminology distinguishing the three types of core. :) | |||
flussence | Unicode? as in, all that nice-looking stuff around U+2200ish? | 15:13 | |
masak | :) | 15:15 | |
flussence | (somehow I guessed the right number!) | ||
masak | *all* of it! | ||
flussence | wow | ||
SpiceMan | so, lets say for example, I'd like to implement a fastcgi module in perl 6... that'd be a ... third kind core module? | ||
masak | it could be, yes. | 15:16 | |
flussence | that sounds right, if it's core at all. | ||
masak | that'd be one nice thing to include in a distribution. | ||
and note that anyone can create a distribution. | |||
15:17
wamba left
|
|||
moritz_ | currently the Rakudo * philosophy is to include what's useful for the user | 15:17 | |
that's not very specific, but that's OK since our module portfolio isn't that huge yet | |||
SpiceMan | that varies greatly among users | ||
right | |||
moritz_ | people come here and ask "is there a module for $JOB?" | 15:18 | |
so we see a demand for certain things | |||
SpiceMan | what's the popular demand? | ||
moritz_ | non-blocking IO and events | ||
SpiceMan | I though of fastcgi because I saw libraries/CGI/Hashsomething and not fastcgi thing | ||
moritz_ | WEB-ish stuff like CGI, templates | ||
database access | |||
SpiceMan | a POE/IO::Async kind of thing? | ||
moritz_ | right | 15:19 | |

moritz_ | I started a Perl 6 port of CGI::Application | ||
it needs a lot of work, like modules for handling cookies, integration with template engines etc. | |||
plainhao | is there a separate cpan for perl6 modules? | 15:22 | |
moritz_ | github.com/moritz/CGI-Application if you're interested | ||
plainhao: not yet | |||
SpiceMan | moritz_: I'll take a look, won't promise anything | ||

plainhao | moritz_, does that mean there are plans to have a separate perl 6 cpan? | ||
moritz_ | plainhao: modules.perl6.org/ and one or two module installers | ||
plainhao | thanks, moritz_ | ||
moritz_ | plainhao: well, we'll try to re-use as much of the p5 cpan as possible | 15:23 | |

isBEKaml | .pick is not _very_ random, is it? :) | 16:58 | |
mkramer | moritz_: there's still " my @test = hyper gather { for 1 .. 5 { $counter++; take $_; } }; " in the spectest | ||
isBEKaml | [logs] wow, just when I was thinking I could start off where I left off of yapsi, there's some talk of it! :) | 16:59 | |
moritz_ | isBEKaml: what's not very random about it? | ||
mkramer: we just came to the conclusion that 'hyper gather' has no effect, becase gather isnot a looping construct | |||
isBEKaml | moritz_: I'm not sure, it just repeats the same thing the first time you try that. | 17:00 | |
I guess I don't have much entropy (does .pick use the system entropy? ) | |||
mkramer | moritz_: right, so why is "hyper gather" in the spectest? | ||
moritz_ | isBEKaml: uneunedosdostrestresunedosdosdos ne unetresdosunedosdostresuneunetres | ||

isBEKaml | moritz_: not to pick(pun intended), but I was curious how .pick does it. | 17:02 | |

odel: 973c96d | jnthn++ | / (3 files): [dotnet] Somewhat reluctantly move KnowHOWAttribute out of NQPSetting and into core. Having meta-object bodies and things that need them at BEGIN time in the same compilation unit doesn't work out and is blocking other progress. |

tadzik | changing for(1..100000) to loop (my $i = 0; $i < 100000; $i++) cut the execution time in about a half | 21:50 | |
(and I don't think this one last iteration caused this :)) | 21:51 | ||
colomon | tadzik: that's completely expected at this point, alas. :( | ||
tadzik | I know :( | ||
PerlJam | I didn't expect it. | 21:52 | |
Now my brain is out of callibration. | |||
tadzik | I have this stupid tests, in Perl 5, PIR, NQP and Perl 6. Only bare PIR is faster than Perl 5 atm, which is promising anyway :) | ||
colomon | jnthn: I've been meaning to try to combine spaced repetition with an Irish tunes database. | ||
jnthn | "Know your Irish tunes!" | ||
colomon: Trouble is, you'd keep getting tempted to forget about the ones you like, so you get to hear them more often. ;-) | 21:53 | ||
PerlJam | tadzik: are you sure PIR is faster than Perl 5? Maybe it was an anomalous execution? Did you run it 20 times and calculate some statistics on the results? | 21:54 | |
:-) | |||

dalek | odel: 06d78a2 | jnthn++ | common/NQP/NQPSetting.pm: [common] Start to stub in a very barebones ClassHOW. This is enough that class Foo { } works. |
21:55 | |
colomon | jnthn: nah, focus would be on remembering how to play them. the ones I really like I play all the time anyway. :) | ||
jnthn | Oh, I see! | 21:56 | |
Playing, not recognizing. :-) | 21:57 | ||
tadzik | PerlJam: no, it really is :) | ||
like 2 times faster | 21:58 | ||
wklej.org/id/405567/ | |||
PerlJam | That's just noise. | ||
(I won't actually believe it until there's an order of magnitude involved :) | 21:59 | ||
tadzik | that's just [+] (1..100000) :) | ||
moritz_ | hm, we should optimize [+] Range | ||
tadzik | so that "benchmark" will go faster? :) | ||
moritz_ | yes :-) | 22:00 | |
it's also something that people actually use | |||
tadzik | but yeah, you're right. It'd even go faster than my loop () {} now :) | ||
is [+] Range just Range.sum? | |||
or is it some compiler magic I dunno how to touch? :) | 22:01 | ||
22:02
baux left
|
|||
moritz_ | [+] is, on the first level, just a dispatch to prefix:<[+]> | 22:02 | |
tadzik | it'd have to be added to Range.pm, yep? | 22:03 | |
22:03
patspam left
|
|||
moritz_ | it's not that easy... the metaop logic will create a prefix:<[+]> if it doesn't exist | 22:03 | |
but if you define one, you'll destroy the automatically generated one, unless you take special care | 22:04 | ||

OK, types. :-) | |||

jnthn | Tene: You haz a commit bit. :-) | ||

jnthn | Tene: Have fun! | ||
sorear: Hmm...what you don't want to write looks a decent bit like what I've got it as on 6model. | 22:30 | ||
sorear | I have a few primitive types | 22:31 | |
obj - pointer to Perl 6 object | |||
var - pointer to Perl 6 container | |||
num - System.Double | |||
int - System.Int32 | |||
etc | |||
jnthn | I have obj/num/int/str as primitives | 22:32 | |
sorear | all Perl 6 expressions generate a low-level expression of type 'var' | ||
jnthn | Didn't yet differentiate containers. | ||
sorear: Is that CgOp creating a new scalar with...a boxed value in? Or unboxed? Or? | 22:33 | ||
