TimToady Making anonymous variables behave like implicit state vars is either one of the best decisions or one of the worst decisions I've ever made, and quite possibly both. 00:19
IOninja :) 00:21
cale2 this rosalind question is tricky
Given: Positive integers n≤40n≤40 and k≤5k≤5. 00:22
Return: The total number of rabbit pairs that will be present after nn months, if we begin with 1 pair and in each generation, every pair of reproduction-age rabbits produces a litter of kk rabbit pairs (instead of only 1 pair).
It's like a modified version of the fib sequence
sample input = 5 3 ............ sample output = 19 00:23
TimToady we're assuming any two rabbits can reproduce here? :)
oh, they always reproduce in pairs, I see... 00:24
cale2 That's the confusing part. It talks about pairs of rabbits as if they're one unit
00:24 llfourn joined
TimToady so they could just be amoebas instead... 00:24
cale2 exactly 00:25
"A key observation is that the number of offspring in any month is equal to the number of rabbits that were alive two months prior" 00:28
timotimo docs are now syncing it seems like
or maybe it's already done
it seems like you have to put in a line for language.html for the tutorial to show up 00:29
docs.perl6.org/language/haskell-to-p6.html - but it can be reached if you know the name
00:29 llfourn left

camelia rakudo-moar aac9ef: OUTPUT«18␤»
cale2 That's it 00:33
but it should be 19 instead of 18 :S
TEttinger there's plenty of issues with that rabbit simulation, chief among them is that they're going to die of inbreeding-relted diseases for any high enough value of nn

cale2 Will Server and Server::Async become the defacto servers? I'd like to translate some Go Web Dev tutorials into P6 eventually 00:53
timotimo HTTP::Server is more just an interface declaration, really

cale2 Can you define your own iterators in P6? 01:02
timotimo of course
our current iterators are already defined in perl6 01:03
cale2 so they will respond to ... ?
timotimo huh?
cale2 doesn't ... call the .successor method on your iterator?
timotimo no, it calls .succ on each value
to go through an iterator you want something like for, or map 01:04
well, really what i mean is, you want to wrap a Seq around the iterator
then you can do whatever you like
i'll go ahead and publish the post 01:05

cale2 timotimo: the reason I ask is because it turns out that the rabbits' age needs to be accounted for 01:12
so they only multiply after they've sat out for their first month of existence lol

cale2 I"m getting "Cannot assign to a readonly variable or a value" over and over 01:33
masak probably don't want `.=` on that `.push` 01:34
cale2 glot.io/snippets/en3ytrg8zy
updated
masak .push is already mutating
cale2 it's thinking that the array is read only :S
timotimo right, you want <-> $age instead of -> $age
cale2 huh? 01:35
masak `for $pairs-produced` will only ever loop once, over that Int
timotimo that, too
cale2 That's fine, there's only one item
timotimo hi masak :)
cale2 so it should only loop once
masak ahoj timotimo
01:36 john51 joined
timotimo so it doesn't matter what you give for $pairs-produced? 01:36
even though it's a required parameter?
masak cale2: then you can remove the for loop
cale2 It starts with one item in the array, then adds items as it goes on
BenGoldberg m: say Phi; 01:38
camelia rakudo-moar aac9ef: OUTPUT«5===SORRY!5=== Error while compiling <tmp>␤Undeclared name:␤ Phi used at line 1␤␤»
timotimo anyway, putting @*ARGS = <--months=5 --pairs-produced=3>; at the beginning and turning the -> into <-> makes it run
m: say phi
camelia rakudo-moar aac9ef: OUTPUT«5===SORRY!5=== Error while compiling <tmp>␤Undeclared routine:␤ phi used at line 1␤␤»
timotimo time for me to sleep! o/
masak cale2: that innermost for loop will only ever loop once, though 01:39
here, let me demonstrate
m: my $number = 42; for $number { say "OH HAI" }
camelia rakudo-moar aac9ef: OUTPUT«OH HAI␤»
BenGoldberg m: constant Φ = 5 ** .5 * .5 + .5; say Φ;
camelia rakudo-moar aac9ef: OUTPUT«1.61803398874989␤»
cale2 ohhhh, I'm incrementing age... So I need to make it read-write. That error message was bad. It gave me a totally wrong line number 01:40
masak BenGoldberg: shouldn't it be lower-case φ?
BenGoldberg m: constant Φ = 5 ** .5 * .5 + .5; say Φ; constant ϕ = Φ - 1; say ϕ;
camelia rakudo-moar aac9ef: OUTPUT«1.61803398874989␤0.618033988749895␤»
cale2 oh nevermind, i didn't read the lines correctly :D
masak: except it is an array of numbers 01:41
here it is fixed: glot.io/snippets/en3ytrg8zy
masak cale2: `Int :$pairs-produced!` is not an array of numbers, it's an Int 01:42
you're looping over *one* Int
cale2 what code are you looking at?
masak eventually I will be able to convince you of this -- can't we skip to where I already did? :)
cale2: I'm looking at the latest URL you pasted
I think you are sending the same URL over and over 01:43
don't know if you want that
Xliff for (^$pairs-produced) { @rabbit-ages.push: 1 }
masak better
cale2 Xliff: ah, that loop!
masak parens unnecessary :)

Xliff masak: :P 01:43
Allow me my syntactic idiosyncracies 01:44
masak wouldn't dream of doing otherwise :)
Xliff Because ^3.pick doesn't work without the parens.

Xliff Yeah. That's an LTA
AlexDaniel I don't think it is a bug
Xliff *shrug* 01:48
I prefer parens there than a space.
AlexDaniel I don't know the reasoning though
Xliff Of course, my preference means little.
masak the space having an effect is a relatively new thing 01:49
used to be a TTIAR
AlexDaniel Xliff: I don't think so. You can use parens in your code as much as you want, this means a lot :)

masak AlexDaniel: no, I write `25 + 5 * 2` :) 02:06

camelia rakudo-moar aac9ef: OUTPUT«===SORRY!===␤Method call must either supply a name or have a child node that evaluates to the name␤»

it's because .WHAT is "special"

but there is a ticket for this
02:09 derrick left
masak AlexDaniel: re precedence, I mean that given the choice between whitespace to indicate precedence and parentheses to indicate precedence, I greatly prefer the latter. 02:10
it doesn't mean I enjoy putting in unnecessary parentheses in my arithmetic expressions.

fil512 Hi I have a grammar parsing problem 02:57
cale2 Is there an idiomatic way to pop an item from one array and push it onto another?
hi fil512
fil512 hi cale 02:58
i want to create a rule like:
token TOP { ^ [ <comment> | <chunk> ]* $ }
where comment is '\\' \N*
I want <chunk> to be everything else 02:59
almost like a !<comment>
but I can't figure out how to write that
02:59 pyrimidi_ left 03:00 labster joined
AlexDaniel cale2: @a.push(@b.pop) ? 03:01
fil512 it's almost like I want to do a split on <comment> and then group up the matches and the in-between non-matches 03:02
I could just use split, but eventually I am going to be parsing stuff inside the chunks
would like to use the grammar construct if i can
03:03 itaipu left
fil512 if i put .+ in <chunk> it just gobbles up everything 03:06
03:06 leah2 joined
AlexDaniel fil512: well, you can use something like: chunk { <!comment>+ } 03:07
but if I were you I'd try to rethink what exactly I am trying to achieve :)
cale2 AlexDaniel: for @nursery -> $pair { $pair.grow-up; if $pair.of-age { @nursery.pop: $pair; @playpen.push: $pair; } }
moving from the nursery to the playpen ;) 03:08
I guess I'd need the index maybe...
fil512 <!comment>+ hangs
got into an infinite loop
anyways that won't really work because I'm going to want to parse out stuff in the <chunk> later on anyway
cale2 fil512: May be better to make a stack overflow post that clearly outlines what you expect to happen and what happens 03:09
03:09 mr_ron left
AlexDaniel fil512: if you gist your example we can figure out why it hangs :) 03:09
cale2 I'm not an expert in grammars
fil512 it just feels like this has got to be a common parsing thing people need to do
parse gunk out, and then also keep all the non-gunk for parsing later
it's a lot like "split"
AlexDaniel keep all the non-gunk for parsing later? Like multi-pass parsing? :S 03:10
fil512: ah, right 03:11
fil512: it's probably { <!comment>+ . }
oops
fil512: it's probably { [<!comment> .]+ }
cale2: what's @nursery.pop: $pair; ? 03:13
how come you pass an argument to pop?
and you're also iterating it… you don't want .pop at all
cale2: you can try something crazy like @playpen.append: gather @nursery .= grep { $pair.grow-up; take $pair if $pair.of-age; not $pair.of-age } 03:16

AlexDaniel cale2: in your case it would be @nursery.categorize: { $pair.of-age } 03:23

camelia rakudo-moar aac9ef: OUTPUT«{alive => [6 2], dead => [1 7 3]}␤»
cale2 AlexDaniel: I would only need one array in that case. the issue with that one array is that, every time rabbits had babies, they'd get appended to the current array that was looping. Then the babies would age too quickly
AlexDaniel so what do you need exactly…
if you want to take something and throw away the rest, then use grep
if you want to end up with two piles of something, then use categorize 03:25

DrForr True, they were more telling us how perl 6 works without having any idea. 13:38
IOninja huh?
13:38 cale2 joined
IOninja Seems a legitimate question to ask when the two languages are named "Perl" and "Perl 6" 13:38
timotimo yeah 13:39
and we told them and all is well
IOninja Saying they're two different languages clarifies any confusion about obsolecense, side-by-sideness, or using one from the other
DrForr Yeah, it is. That's why I said they can coexist happily.
13:40 itcharlie joined, agentzh joined
timotimo it seemed like a "obsoleting perl5 is dumb" - "thats why we dont do that" kind of deal 13:41
i.e. "hey the thing youre not doing is dumb!" 13:42
13:43 llfourn joined
DrForr Closer to "The thing I say you're doing because of the name..." whereas my response was "slow down, that's not happening..." 13:43
cale2 I think "No such method 'of-age' for invocant of type 'Any'" needs to be changed 13:44
yoleaux 09:43Z <timotimo> cale2: i think you were still confused about the kv thing. .kv gives you a flat list, -> $index, $num takes two items from the list on each iteration. .pairs gives you a flat list of Pair objects, and if you -> $a, $b, it'll take two of these pairs on each iteration. you seem to think that -> $a, $b does unpacking. it does not. -> ($a, $b) does unpacking.
cale2 when you loop through an array of objects, and you try to call methods on the objects. It's 100% LTA right now 13:45
13:45 agentzh left
moritz cale2: what do you want the error message to say? 13:45
undefined is not a function? :-) 13:46
cale2 moritz: Perhaps something related to the loop itself. I can't say given that I still don't know what the error is pointing to
There's literally no way to troubleshoot this runtime error given that information
jnthn Does your code call a method .of-age?
cale2 The program was running just fine, then at some point, it throws that. 13:47
Is it because the the array became empty and it tried to call a method on an empty object?
moritz no 13:48
the array contains an Any
13:48 llfourn left
moritz which you could catch earlier if you gave the loop param a type constriant 13:48
*constraint
for @array -> MyType $x { ... }
then it'll tell you that it got an Any but expected a MyType
cale2 Any may as well be a Null 13:49
It's probably because the .kv method is not giving me the index and the object 13:50
it's probably giving me the index and another index or something like that
timotimo m: say <foo bar baz quux>.jv.perl 13:51

cale2 perlpilot: I don't see how this is a bad quote "haskell really is for bad programmers". At least in simple levels (before you get to higher level stuff, which you don't necessarily have to right away) it is true. It holds your hand and forces you to answer "what does this function do, now this one, now what is this data" building up programs from small pieces 17:15
I think declarative is easier than imperative, but maybe that's just me. Easier to say "what does it do" rather than "how does it do it" 17:16

18:12 espadrine joined
summan timotimo Would have done. But I am no expert programmer, just a novice. For people like us courses on Perl 6 would be great on platforms like www.coursera.org or edx.org 18:13
Perl foundation can do it.
DrForr The Perl Foundation is made of people. Programming languages don't write themselves :) 18:14
18:15 itaipu joined
[Coke] You may be over-estimating the amount of time available by people already volunteering at TPF. 18:15
seems like the sort of thing that'd be amenable to a grant. 18:16
summan Perl 6 design is great. Though I use scientific stack in Python and R for statistics, I was just going through this perl6intro.com/. I found Perl 6 to be an elegant language. So I just wanted to learn it. So a course on it woud be justified. I myself learned Python and R from www.coursera.org and www.edx.org. 18:18
IOninja Seems both sites are for courses offered for free by universities...
DrForr There's a few tutorials on Safari and a recent webcast is going up soon. 18:19
IOninja wow lots of translations for perl6intro.com
+ a ton of books 18:20
I lost track of how many there are coming out this year
uuuh... Well now I know why so many people are using dev commits with rakudobrew: perl6intro.com/#_installing_perl_6 18:21
.seen hankache 18:22
yoleaux I saw hankache 28 Jan 2017 12:15Z in #perl6: <hankache> windows users, what terminal do you use? Any alternative to cmd.exe?
summan Reaching to community of people should be of priority I guess. PyData and PyCon are examples in python + a lot of courses. A beginner definitely would delve into where the resources for learning are plenty. Its a simple rule!! 18:23
mst summan: "perl foundation" can't do it. you need a person to write it.
perl foundation grants can help fund that person 18:24
but first you need to find the person
DrForr Or be that person.
IOninja .tell hankache Your perl6intro site tells users to use untested development commits by building them with rakudobrew: perl6intro.com/#_installing_perl_6 We generally avoid suggesting rakudobrew since users aren't skilled enough to fix any issues with it and users should be using properly tested user releases, not whatever commit ended up being HEAD when they build perl6
yoleaux IOninja: I'll pass your message to hankache.
IOninja summan: what a coincidence. There's an article written just for that topic: perl6.party/post/Open-Source-Projec...et-Reality 18:25
summan IOninja Oh yeah, nice to see :) 18:26
IOninja summan: well, nothing's changed from when the first time you were telling us to write MOOC courses followed by a bunch of exclamation marks. 18:27
summan: we're all busy with stuff we feel needs doing. If you feel MOOC stuff needs to be done. Do it.
summan: "But I am no expert programmer, just a novice." You don't need to be an expert. 18:28
And in some respects it's better that you're not. 18:29
summan: write the course. Let experts review it for mistakes. You don't need an expert to write it.
DrForr And as I like to point out, if you're *not* an expert it's actually better, as you're learning and can take notes as you go along.
I'd be more than happy to review whatever you do and offer feedback, I've given Perl 6 training worldwide :) 18:30

mst cale2: well done on completely missing the point
cale2 I strictly stick to ruining documentation instead of ruining actual code 18:43
DrForr cale2: No, but that just means you're going to be a more effective canary than most would be :)
mst cale2: I'm not telling you where to spend your time; it's your time - but there are people who will learn better from one or the other so 'X > Y' is still silly 18:44
cale2 mst: 😘
[Coke] I don't particular find "feel free" to be helpful in this case; no, there isn't a clear perl 6 lib to use like there is in p5 yet. I ran up against this in parrot back in the day: sometimes you just want to be a user, you don't want to shave yaks all the way down. 18:45
18:45 itaipu joined
mst cale2: also, for example, I can think of plenty of people for whom MOOCs' having a specific timeline and etc. helps them motivate themselves, so ranking "no commitment required" as an advantage is an error 18:45
note, I hate MOOCs and would much prefer to learn from a gitbook
timotimo i'd love to have perl6 shouted into my head by a mst :3
IOninja :) 18:46
mst I've not found I'm particularly good at class-style lecturing
b2gills I first learned Perl 5 by the error messages and the included docs
timotimo OK, that's fine
mst then again, I've always previously attempted to produce a 'normal' class
timotimo ah, that must be the mistake! ;) 18:47
IOninja I've learned both Perl 5 and Perl 6 from IRC... and never bothered with docs with either :(
timotimo you do you, mst
mst maybe if I threw that out the window and went "let's do this mst style, and it'll maybe work for 10% of people, and everybody else can watch somebody competent at the standard approach"
IOninja heh
mst but I think having somebody who hates watching videos making one is probably silly
hobbs I think the result would be entertaining
b2gills I first learned Perl 6 by reading and watching everything I could get my hands on it for about 5 years or more, while never actually trying it 18:48
hobbs you might be a youtube celebrity
DrForr You too can be Tron Guy :)

cale2 what happens when you put `.IO` on the end of a filename? Is .IO coercing the Str to a IO::Handle type? 20:26
IOninja IO::Path
20:27 agentzh joined
cale2 perhaps then .slurp coerces IO::Path to an IO::Handle 20:27
Xliff .slurp returns the contents. 20:29
IOninja cale2: not really; just uses it to slurp the thing pointed to by that IO::Path: github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/b51a...#L458-L487
Xliff .open should return the IO::Handle

sena_kun okay. I've finished(or almost) work on a single style and compileable examples, but in process a question risen. Your extract-examples script indeed extract examples, but for what purpose? Cannot we in such fashion just execute examples directly instead of extracting? 21:00
cale2 gather/take creates a Seq. I just assigned it to an @array variable and that converted it 21:01
mst gfldex: grep/map return Seqs too
mst uses .list sometimes to get something bindable
when I'm trying to be readonly-everything 21:02
sena_kun gfldex, I've built a test around your script, but we lost information after extracting to properly shout about errors 21:03
timotimo IOninja: the reason why there's slurp and slurp-rest is because slurp includes opening and closing, whereas slurp-rest is about a file-handle that neds up staying open afterwards 21:06

perlpilot cale2: someone will always find *something* to complain about :)
IOninja cale2, and what about Slips :) 21:53
cale2, Arrays and Slips are Lists. Arrays are mutable and Slips... slip... into surrounding stuff. Seqs lazily generate and forget stuff, seems a far cry from Lists 21:54
21:54 llfourn joined
cale2 To a beginner, they're all the same thing. except sometimes things don't work because they're different types and then you have to fiddle until it works. 21:55
Will be interesting to see how "Think Perl 6" teaches them all
21:55 ggoebel joined 21:56 TEttinger joined
IOninja hehe 21:56
Well, they all do Positional role, so there is some sameness :)
cale2 Realistically, the only reason a beginner would need to know about Seq is if they learn about gather/take. They probably should learn the imperative accumulator method before learning gather/take, though. 21:57
Geth doc: 9771ffeeb9 | Altai-man++ | 3 files
Fix a couple of examples, add 'haskell' page to ignore-list of extract-examples.p6
IOninja m: class Sameness is Array is Seq is Slip {}; say Sameness.new: 1, 2, 3

IOninja ehehe
21:58 pmurias left
IOninja "imperative accumulator method"... *snores* 21:58
cale2 The differences are frustrating when you're adding typing to your program. All of the sudden Array[Stuff] doesn't compile because your gather/take actually produced a Seq.
IOninja What is that anyway?
But why are you adding typing? 21:59
cale2 m: my @stuff; for 1,2,3,4 { @stuff.push: $_ }; say @stuff;
camelia rakudo-moar b51a55: OUTPUT«[1 2 3 4]␤»
IOninja ah
cale2 that method
IOninja: why wouldn't you add typing. It's nice to know that your function returns an Array of a certain thing 22:00
IOninja loop amd push sounds much less intimidating :)
perlpilot cale2: do you expect type annotations in Perl 6 to act like Haskell in some way?
dogbert17 timotimo, IOninja: irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6-dev/2016-0...i_13211439
cale2 IOninja: Yeah, teach loop/push first. Then gather/take is like "oh I don't need the accumulator any more"
22:00 lukiramu left, rindolf left
cale2 perlpilot: cognitively, type annotations are helpful to humans just as much as computers. look at the signature "ah, I know what this func does" 22:01
IOninja cale2, but if you're unfamiliar with Perl 6 types your effect is frustration
perlpilot okay ... I was getting a feeling like you were expecting something akin to Haskell's type inferencing to happen in Perl 6
IOninja cale2, and you can play to language's strength: gradual typing and not bother with types until you learn about them. 22:02
Instead of wanting sameness. 22:03

22:03 llfourn left
perlpilot I'd say this is where Haskell and Perl 6 are polar opposites. In Haskell, you add types so that the compiler can help you write the code; in Perl 6 you leave off the types so that the compiler doesn't get in your way of writing the code ;-) 22:04
cale2 IOninja: Nobody can tell me Perl6's strengths, though. When I ask, they say TMTOWTDI. When I do it a different way, they say "play to Perl6's strengths". okay... 22:05
I get the impression that there _is_ such a thing as idiomatic Perl6. But people pretend that there isn't. 22:06
22:07 sena_kun left

22:11 RabidGravy left
perlpilot cale2: and, yes, there is such a thing. 22:11
IOninja cale2: hehe, interesting. I do believe there is idiomatic Perl 6, but I'd have a hard time naming examples. 22:14
Other than assuming everything TimToady writes is idiomatic by definition :P
But I notice you throw around all sorts of CS terms I never heard of. Perhaps idiomatic Perl is writing code ignoring all these strict rules and definitions... or perhaps I think so because that's how I code :P clueless about something-something-aggregators you showed earlier 22:16
22:16 rindolf joined
IOninja And, to me at least, TIMTWOADY means you can write `for ^5 { .say }` or `^5 .map: &say` or `.say for 0..4`; same as in English you structure phrases differently, as they fit. Not that you can do FP-only-and-nothing-but-FP while someone can do OO-only-and-nothing-but-OO and declarative whatver that is 22:19

cale2 in that case `Perl::Tidy::WingDingify`

cale2 TEttinger: creo que se llama "mexico" porque espanol tiene los caracturas unicoda 22:32

cale2 perl is actually much "lower level" than haskell. If you want to speak in terms of abstractions. haskell abstracts the machine away to such a degree, that many people actually want to go back to visualizing the computer model 22:59
23:00 llfourn joined
timotimo can imagine that 23:00
perlpilot cale2: I dunno. I think that Perl is much broader than Haskell in that it tries to bridge the gap between low level and high level
23:01 kyan joined, eliasr joined, girafe joined
perlpilot But, I'll agree that Perl *can be* (and often is) lower level than Haskell. 23:03
timotimo the way haskell does its lazy evaluation can sometimes make understanding how it actually executes its things really tricky 23:04
but that's no issue when you're not interested in that
which you can totally do

cale2 I'm confused about how you set an attribute on an object. I thought `has $.thing is rw` did it 23:10
23:10 john51 joined
cale2 m: class Thing { has $.stuff is rw }; my Thing $t.=new; $t.thing = 'hello'; say $t; 23:11
camelia rakudo-moar b51a55: OUTPUT«No such method 'thing' for invocant of type 'Thing'␤ in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1␤␤»
cale2 Yep, that's what I get every time
oops
m: class Thing { has $.stuff is rw }; my Thing $t.=new; $t.stuff = 'hello'; say $t; 23:12
camelia rakudo-moar b51a55: OUTPUT«Thing.new(stuff => "hello")␤»
cale2 what the
IOninja heh 23:14
cale2: maybe you were using $!stuff? That's a private attr
m: class Thing { has $!stuff is rw };
camelia rakudo-moar b51a55: OUTPUT«Potential difficulties:␤ useless use of 'is rw' on $!stuff␤ at <tmp>:1␤ ------> 3class Thing { has $!stuff is rw 7⏏5};␤»
IOninja Though that warns
cale2 If I had a dime for every time I tried to invoke a method on Any 23:15
timotimo well, how are you putting your Anys into your variables? :)
perigrin cale2: Any.port.in($a_storm) ? 23:16
IOninja m: use MONKEY-TYPING; augment class Any { method FALLBACK (|) { say "You got a dime!" } }; my $x; $x.somethin'or-other
camelia rakudo-moar b51a55: OUTPUT«You got a dime!␤»
IOninja ehehe
timotimo well done
IOninja Add a state counter var, a BEGIN that loads data from file and END that writes it back; stick it into a module and alias perl6 to perl6 -MDimeCounter; and you'll know exactly how many dimes you'd get :) 23:21
timotimo yup 23:23
if you develop on multiple machines, may want to build a network-attached storage solution for your dime count
IOninja :D 23:24
b2gills better yet send it over irc to a bot that keeps track, and tweets the cumulative count on a regular basis 23:26
timotimo right, chatbots are the next disruptive technology 23:28
