teatime word. 00:00
MadcapJake teatime: I really do think that there should be an agreed upon standard for how to write docs inside code
timotimo that must be why perl5 users usually put the pod at the far end of the file
MadcapJake that'
Juerd teatime: I find pod in code absolutely terrible and find it hard to read code that uses it, because POD has its own, wildly different, block syntax. It has its own ideas on indentation and vertical whitespace.
MadcapJake that's one thing that's nice about doxygen and it's ilk, the documentation is uniformly laid out
teatime MadcapJake: Literate _______ is fun, where you have a doc that includes code blocks and the interpreter strips out the code blocks and concats them together to get the source code. 00:01
Juerd timotimo: This is indeed why I put my POD at the end of the code.
ZoffixWin teatime, as for relatedness. Well, docs not matching code is a "bug" in my mind.
teatime ZoffixWin: naturally. and one of the goals when you author is to minimize the chance of future bugs :)
timotimo so you minimize the amount of docs? :D 00:02
teatime lol
ZoffixWin doxygen.... there are many libs that have nothing but doxygen-generated docs--and I'm no C guru--they suck
teatime not that I'm saying always put the docs in the code, but as Juerd for documenting APIs and such I feel like it's the best place.
MadcapJake ZoffixWin: they're the only way I can ever navigate a C codebase
ZoffixWin Interesting.
teatime ZoffixWin: that's a combination of doxygen sucks and/or people suck by being too lazy to make decent docs / additional non-code docs / doxygen configuration
but I agree, auto-gen'd docs usually sucks for various reasons 00:03
timotimo some of these reasons being obvious
Juerd One issue I have with a docstring-like approach is that not everything that I'd want to document, is a block that can contain a string literal. For example, with "has $.foo is rw;" I want to document .foo 00:04
teatime MadcapJake: I actually think having a (subset of) doc layout that mirrors the code is generally a fail
Juerd At one point I suggested "is explained("...")" or "is documented("...")" as a tongue-in-cheek suggestion. I haven't been able to come up with something better.
MadcapJake teatime: like where the pod is laid out in a similar fashion to the codebase?
teatime might work well for a few codebases, but most would benefit from some human intervention in where to make section/chapter breaks 00:05
MadcapJake: no, as in, the "docs" show you a file/class hierarchy from the code
ZoffixWin The best docs I've seen to date are that of P5's Mojolicious (metacpan.org/pod/Mojolicious). They're concise enough to get the gist and if you can look at the source to get the details.
There *is* such a thing as too many docs.
Juerd Many things that I like to see in documentation, can now be put in signatures.
MadcapJake github.com/jashkenas/journo/blob/m....litcoffee
timotimo that's literally coffee 00:06
MadcapJake literARy you mean :P
Juerd Can you *name* your return value, with -->? 00:07
i.e. if you indicate --> Bool, can you hint that this boolean indicates success? 00:08
MadcapJake no, you can make it a constant though
Juerd That's another thing that would make documentation more consistent if automated.
teatime in past projects I have used a specialish block comment syntax (e.g. /** */ to indicate embedded markdown, and then had a file that manually included every file that contained docs (although sometimes with globbing) so that I could have control over sections etc. and ordering. and also I would be aware of where in the hierarchy I was when writing the markdown, so that I could do whatever was appropriate (have
a section header, or not, etc.)
it worked pretty well, but it worried me because it felt like it would be fragile. 00:09
timotimo putting a variable name after the --> is planned, but NYI
teatime heh, you could: name the return value, and then assign to it in the block to override implicit return value!
Juerd Hm, a variable name. How would that work? Would it declare the variable, and would you do "--> Bool $success;" and then "$success = True;" instead of "return True;"? 00:10
ZoffixWin m: subset Meows of Any where /foo/; sub foo ( --> Meows ) { "bart" }; foo
camelia rakudo-moar 4f3f1c: OUTPUT«Type check failed for return value; expected Meows but got Str ("bart")␤ in sub foo at /tmp/uzkir6Aef9 line 1␤ in block <unit> at /tmp/uzkir6Aef9 line 1␤␤»
timotimo %) 00:11
brilliant
teatime timotimo: which?
timotimo the subset one
Juerd: i expect it to work like that
MadcapJake m: subset IsSmall of Bool; sub foo($i --> IsSmall) { $i < 100 }; foo(10).say 00:12
camelia rakudo-moar 4f3f1c: OUTPUT«True␤»
timotimo in that example i don't see a reason to not call the sub is-small instead
MadcapJake timotimo: sure, trivial example I suppose 00:15
timotimo hm. i wonder how efficient subset types are where we don't have a refinement
MadcapJake m: subset SmallStr of Str where *.chars < 10; sub foo($s --> SmallStr) { $s x $s.chars }; foo('two').say; foo('four').say; 00:17
camelia rakudo-moar 4f3f1c: OUTPUT«twotwotwo␤Type check failed for return value; expected SmallStr but got Str ("fourfourfourfour")␤ in sub foo at /tmp/WprFseLKgP line 1␤ in block <unit> at /tmp/WprFseLKgP line 1␤␤»

Woodi_ teatime: becouse ppls didn't hear about --> ? :) 06:59
06:59 boegel joined
teatime in fact I haven't seen anything use --> (not that I've looked hard), even though it makes much more sense to me to, forced to choose, group the return type inside the parens w/ the arguments and arg types, rather than grouping it w/ the roles and traits and stuff. 07:00
although I suppose in p6 there are other things that makeup part of the signature outside of the parens 07:01

ufobat what if a role uses a class, whereas this class also does the role.. it seems for me it gives a infinite loop. 07:22
07:22 skarn joined
ufobat as an example: class Human does CanHaveHumenChildren and role CanHaveHumenChildren { has @.children; method make_children() {return Human.new() } }... class Wolf does CanHaveHumenChildren { .. like in romulus and remus.. } 07:22
moritz you need to predeclare Human before you can declare CanHaveHumenChildren like that 07:24
(though I would separate the functions of *having* and *producing* children into separate roles :-) 07:25
or even better, make a role ProducesOffsprint[::T] { method make_children($count) { T.new() xx $count } } 07:26
Woodi_ ufobat: I think roles are simpler things then classes (like interfaces in Java) and should be used as auxiliary behaviour blending method...
07:27 trnh joined
moritz and then class Human does ProducesOffsprint[Human] { ... } 07:27
07:33 nakiro left
ufobat my RealWorld example is, i have a object that is root of tree; this root and the nodes should get "tree-code" via the role. so the classes "Tree" and "Node" have only the code according to their use case 07:33
07:33 maddingu1 is now known as maddingue
ufobat thanks for your suggestions :-) 07:34
07:36 darutoko joined, aindilis` left 07:37 aindilis joined
moritz also it might be worth considering whether the tree should be a separate object 07:37
really depends on the use case 07:38
ufobat: also for a Tree role, you can just use self.new, because the role is going to be applied to the type that is the tree
ufobat ah! 07:39
so instead of Node.new i do self.. interesting, then i can leave out the use Node 07:40
moritz m: role Tree { has @.children; method alloc() { @!children = self.new() xx 2 } }; class DOM does Tree { }; my $d = DOM.new; $d.alloc; say $d.perl 07:41
camelia rakudo-moar 4f3f1c: OUTPUT«DOM.new(children => [DOM.new(children => []), DOM.new(children => [])])␤»
Woodi_ ufobat: I think roles should not try to replace OO programming. roles seems to take less keystrokes but OO is more general thing...
moritz Woodi_: huh? 07:42
ufobat otherwise i would have asked how i "predeclare Human"? would it be a class Node; role Tree { method make_node() }..
moritz Woodi_: roles are an aspect of OO
or a part of it
ufobat according to your suggesten i think my role is, as you required, a behavoir of a thing.. that it can have several children
moritz a part can't repalce the whole
Woodi_ moritz: ufobat++ example above :) typical classess like nodes are simulated via roles...
ufobat i've got a Node class as well. i just have the aspect of having nodes in the role 07:43
moritz ufobat: predclaration: class Human { ... }; role Foo { uses Human here }; class Human { actual implemenation }
ufobat: but that requires the predeclaration and the implementation to be int he same compunit (so, same file, usually)
ufobat because the node is a thing of its own, and the Root is a different thing of its own, with a own usecase or reason to live
moritz: which is not a great coding style to have it in the same file 07:44
Woodi_ root node isn't very different thing, IMO... 07:45
07:47 peteretep left, djbkd_ joined
ufobat ell. that depends on the use-case. assuming that the root of all is god and you say that the "root" is not really something special you probably are disliked by plenty of people ;) 07:48
anyway! i will reconsidder how i implement this, my idea just was to split the use-case-code from the tree-structure-code 07:49

masak ok, nice :0
:)
Emeric teatime: oh, nice ! thanks 09:06
teatime I had it return proper units, except wherever they were meaningless (Dur * Dur) or of a unit we don't have a type for (num / Dur, unit Hz), it just treats all args as seconds, and returns a Duration.
^^ there's only a couple of cases where that happens, so it seems like a reasonable way to DWIM? alternately, it could return a unitless num ('cause S02 says Dur's should happily become Rat in numeric context), or could die? 09:07
I plan to add either a warning for those cases, or return of a fail (not sure which?), and clean up the code / comments/units-documentation and clean up the test cases 09:08
so there'll be a revised PR.
masak / Emeric: Suggestions on above ^^ issues are more than welcome. and also Emeric you can read the comments beginning at github.com/rakudo/rakudo/pull/742/...06c4013R20 and tell me if it all makes sense to you. 09:10
(comment blocks beginning at line 20 & 78) 09:11
Emeric teatime: I'm just a beginner with Perl 6 :) but i'll take a look at it$
RabidGravy speaking of which there hasn't been someone come in here and made a righteous furore about some highly complex and technical detail of how rakudo does DateTimes for ages 09:12
masak teatime: I don't think either warning or fail is appropriate when the units aren't enough.
RabidGravy has the world ended and we didn't notice?
masak teatime: my standard use case for that is computing the standard deviation on Durations. for a while there, you legitimately have the unit Duration ** 2, but all you care about are Nums 09:13
teatime RabidGravy: lol. 09:14
RabidGravy: it doesn't seem very bad to me. 09:15
RabidGravy: it's simple, but at the same time someone clearly put thought into how to make it consistent and unambiguous.
masak: so you say -1 on warn'ing upon Dur * Dur and num / Dur ? 09:16
RabidGravy oh the way some people would have it, rakudo is strangling kittens in a darkened cellar every time someone uses a DateTime 09:17
teatime masak: you can always silence warnings or explicitly cast to a num type like Rat (which is what my warning would likely suggest.)
RabidGravy I'd also go for no warnings, those kind of things are quite common in the kinds of things I'm interested in 09:18
teatime RabidGravy: What's their objection? Admittedly, time/dates is notoriously hard to get correct so I may have overlooked some obvious flaw and been falsely impressed.
Emeric/ masak / RabidGravy: Are we all in agreement that Dur / Dur should return a unitless number? 09:19
RabidGravy teatime, I couldn't possibly begin to explain the perceived issues, I'm all like *yawn" and pretending I'm blonde when it comes up
09:19 ribasushi joined
teatime and masak / RabidGravy: since you guys seem to actually use Dur*Dur and num/Dur, what should those operations return... Dur, or unitless num ? 09:20
RabidGravy Num
or Rat
they can be coerced back if necessary 09:21
teatime ok; that's consistent w/ S02 (which I realized during this convo, my way isn't.) 09:22

psch i guess if there's only the stub it marks it as only-stub somehow..? 09:45
and thus the narrower invocant type doesn't get picked, because there is an alternative
but if it has more than the stub it gets picked because it's narrower and then dies

10:59 kaare_ joined 11:00 azawawi left
psch i was actually looking for something like "is tighter(&postcircumfix<( )>)", but we don't do invocation that way i think 11:00
masak assoc("left") on a unary does make sense. see S03.
prefixes and postfixes of equal precedence can form differently-shaped AST fragments. 11:01
the associativity of that precedence level governs which of the two possible shapes gets created.
11:01 cdg joined
masak implemented this last year in 007 :) 11:02
arnsholt Do you have an example? 11:04
masak there's no actual case in the core Perl 6 grammar, because all postfixes are tighter than all prefixes 11:06
11:07 zakharyas joined
arnsholt I meant in general, actually. I don't quite see what you mean 11:07
masak but let's say you defined both a prefix:<!> and a postfix:<!> locally, and gave them the same precedence
moritz !a! could be (!a)! or !(a!) 11:08
masak then `!$x!` could mean either `!($x!)` or `(!$x)!`
I said "see S03", because it's explained there
arnsholt Sure, sure
Oh, you did indeed. Should've checked that first, true
masak the former would be "associating to the left", the latter "associating to the right"
note that it's not *operators* that have associativity, but precedence levels 11:09
11:09 kid51 joined
masak unfortunately Perl 6 does not reflect that very well 11:09
arnsholt Ah, right 11:11
When thinking about the prec level being associative rather than the individual operators, it does make a lot more sense 11:12

ufobat: please read my OP and TimToady's reply 12:41
ufobat masak, thank you very much :)
jnthn ufobat: Bailador::Routing is a role composed by Bailador::Route. Presumably since it's a role it's intended to be composed in to other things. Is hard-coding a .new call to Bailador::Route therefore the right thing, or should it be self.new so to the role creates the appropriate instance of whatever it's composed in to? 12:43
12:43 domidumont left
awwaiid ufobat: I'm not sure if your circular dependency is the same as one I ran into in Inline::Ruby, but I had an RbObject that has-a RbValue, but sometimes RbValue needs to generate an RbObject. So in RbValue I had to use ::('Inline::Ruby::RbObject').new 12:43
RabidGravy jnthn, that is almost exactly what I would going to say
jnthn A role that explicitly names a class that's composing it is usually a design smell.
masak guess TimToady means `CHECK time` in his answer, not `CATCH time`... 12:46
ufobat aye! bailador::App uses the role as well, and never the less, if i parameterisize the role, its the same. what i wanted to do is acutally putting the "tree-code" out of the 2 classes that then just contain "use case code".
self.new isn't doing the job in my case, since Bailador::App is also doing the role. App is the root-node whereas all B::Route are regular nodes 12:47
awwaiid, ::('Inline::Ruby::RbObject').new <- :-) looks ugly but i think it might do the thing 12:48
12:48 domidumont joined 12:51 mls joined
jnthn OK, then role Bailador::Routing[::RouteType] { ... RouteType.new } would probably do it then 12:53

RabidGravy oof 14:04
14:04 avenj joined, avenj left, avenj joined
psch anyway, what this comes from is that i have a bunch of roles that should help identify objects. the roles get applied during BUILD, and in .Str i want to use the name of a subset of those roles 14:06
i'm guessing (even ignoring the WAT above) that i'm not quite on the right track in the first place, because of all the name mangling i'd have to do anyway
gregf_ psch: are you applying that role to an instance? 14:07
psch gregf_: i am applying the roles to self at the end of BUILD, so "almost"..?
well, to make this more specific, i have a class Chord, for Music. during BUILD a Chord figures out if it's major, minor, etc. and applies the corresponding role. but a Chord can also be "sus-able", i.e. suspendable 14:10
which means it can have its 3rd diminished or augmented, which results in a new Chord without the min or maj role, but with the sus2 or sus4 role
and of course i'd like to not have to have a ' method chord-type { $chord-type } ' in every of those roles 14:11
where $chord-type is "min" for role min, "maj" for role maj, etc...
s/for Music/as in 'triad'/ # maybe... vOv
[Coke] what's in a minor or major role? 14:12
Is this something better modeled as an attribute?
psch maj has a method dom7, which returns a dominant 7th Chord
i'm not sure it works as attribute, but i am thinking what i'm doing here is kind of spaghetti design... 14:13
(min doesn't have that method, 'cause it wouldn't be a dom7 but a min7)
14:15 nd3i joined, khw joined
psch also, there's a finite set of possible chords, and different order of the same notes does (mostly...) still mean the same chord, albeit inverted 14:15
14:16 tharkun left
RabidGravy I think the Str thing might might be doable by getting the roles at run time 14:16
14:17 ugexe joined
psch right, but a Chord+{maj,sus-able} shouldn't report itself as e.g. C maj sus-able 14:17
14:17 mcsnolte joined, tharkun joined
psch that's what i'm struggling with to figure out 14:17
the fact that i have multiple roles applied to a class and one of them matters for stringification, but the other doesn't 14:18
and i don't think relying on ordering or so is reliable enough... vOv
RabidGravy does the role itself "know" whether it matters from stringification? Given the context? 14:20
14:21 cpage_ joined
[Coke] I wouldn't rely on the stringification of a thing to see what roles it has 14:22
psch well, i've tried that with a new role, that those that matter does
[Coke] I would ask it if it has a role I cared about.
RabidGravy so you get .^roles at run-time, then ask the role which has $?CLASS so it knows what context and returns the right thing 14:23

nd3i got it--thanks. 14:40
psch moritz: that does seem to make more sense than "when the sub call looks operator-ish", which was my best guess 14:41
like @a[1]:exists
moritz well, in those cases, the grammar actually parses it as an adverb
there are special rules for that
psch ...that actually just makes me more confused again :)
because if adverbs are specially parsed as such - and named arguments never are - then we should never call named arguments adverbs 14:42
but then, subs and method calls are verbs, as jnthn says
moritz psch: I kinda agree

teatime yes, realize you can define it.
Xliff I love perl6
teatime: I didn't. Hence the test. Your #2 implied that it might not work. 22:13
timotimo you may want to "is rw" that
AlexDaniel teatime: well, not really. What about ₅₆₉ ?
timotimo are there subscript roman numerals, too?
ZoffixWin Well, that's kinda useless, because you have to either have define a ton of operators (horribly slow) or restrict to a very small subset
teatime heh, you could also do postcircumfix<₍₎> for indexing. 22:14
timotimo they'd be totally useful for array subscripts
teatime you guys have totally missed my point.
ZoffixWin Same problem I had with superscript powers module
teatime, what was your point?
teatime 1) for a lot of unicode characters that you might be tempted to add to core perl grammar, there are actually several different useful things they could be used for, so probably better to not define them in core, and let people use a module to import whichever semantics they want for things like e.g. subscripts 22:15
core could add subscript numbers to legal identifier characters, and then they could be used in variable names (which is useful), but it wouldn't stop people from defining them to be array indexes if they wanted to 22:16
ZoffixWin But that's why I showed you the example with ². It's in the grammar, but you can override what it does
teatime (however, point conceeded about not being able to recognize <sub>1243</sub> as an operator) 22:17
ZoffixWin: no? 22:18
ZoffixWin: your example doesn't use ² as part of the variable name.

teatime Xliff: if it's in core, it can just match an arbitrary string of sub/super digits
ZoffixWin Xliff, sorry, that's if you're doing it **by defining operators**
teatime Xliff: it's only... yeah ZoffixWin is saying the same thing
ZoffixWin It doesn't have to be in core because there are slangs
Xliff Yes, but I thought teatime's point was to not have it in core.
Now I haven't yet gotten around to slangs.
ZoffixWin (currently, without user-approved interface)
teatime it was; but my point was not really about any specific syntax. 22:22
Xliff Can someone linky?
ZoffixWin And my point was that there's no issue with having it in core
Xliff, AFAIK there aren't any docs. Slangs aren't yet ready to be used by users and may change. That's my understanding
teatime it was just a general caution, that once you put something in core you can never easily decide it should be something else, AND it will make it more difficult for people to use it for something different: even if they can easily re-define the meaning, they may no longer want to because of readability / confusion issues 22:23
ZoffixWin I've seen some examples with SQL code being directly in Perl 6 code
22:23 vendethiel left
ZoffixWin Xliff, oh, there's also DrForr's module in the ecosystem that lets you use roman numerals. That's done with slangs 22:23
teatime, I think Perl 5 is a good example of what happens when you do that. You end up importing a gazillion modules. 22:24
teatime there's a big diff. between choosing to implement $a ⋄ $b vs. $a × $b
the former is obviously something special, if you don't know what it does you'll have to look it up 22:25
ZoffixWin m: '⋄'.uniname.say

teatime omfg, I quit.
bbl. 22:26
AlexDaniel because it will create too much confusion for people who read the code
ZoffixWin teatime, but you're just making an argument against your position. If most people assume × does multiplication, then it should do it, not whatever module author decided it should do

teatime ZoffixWin: My position is that perl should avoid putting lots of unicode into core, because anything in core is no longer (reasonably) available for use as something else.

22:27 xinming joined
ZoffixWin But it *is* available! 22:27
22:28 Azry left
teatime it's not reasonable to re-define core operators to do something totally different. doing that is just a clever joke, not something you would want to actually use. 22:28
