colomon The article is a little sloppy and incomplete, but does seem to have the basics pretty well. 01:54
For instance, he left out that the Perl 6 script is run like normal BEFORE calling MAIN. So if you have code which isn’t encapsulated in a sub or whatever, that will be executed just like MAIN wasn’t there. Then once that is done, MAIN is called. 01:56
raschipi Yep, MAIN at the end. 01:57
colomon and MAIN can be a multi sub
colomon wonders what other tricks he’s forgetting 01:58
raschipi m: say 'a'; sub MAIN { say 'b' }; say 'c';

01:59 Cabanossi left, cpage_ joined
colomon there’s a way to specify alternate spellings of options, but it always seemed really fiddly to me 02:00
02:01 Cabanossi joined
colomon (like -v versus —verbose) 02:01
raschipi At that point, I think it's better to get getopt out. 02:02
haxmeister \o/ 02:03
made my first simple class and object in perl6 today :-D
colomon haxmeister++ 02:04
MasterDuke_ colomon: you mean for generic named arguments, like `sub ( :color(:colour($c)) ) { } `, or something specific to MAIN?
colomon MasterDuke_: that looks right to me? 02:05
MasterDuke_ heh, i copied it from the docs
colomon I just got a headache every time I tried to do that, and eventurally I gave up.
haxmeister looks like greek to me.. and I did lisp and scheme fairly well a year go 02:06
so what is the difference between a module and a package? 02:07
raschipi m: sub f (:arg(:argu($c))) {say $c}; f(:arg('a')); f(:argu('b'))
camelia a
b
haxmeister oh thank you thank you thank you for making that syntax possible 02:09
Foo::Bar::<$baz>
haxmeister loves the little things 02:10
raschipi haxmeister: a module is one kind of package. 02:11
haxmeister trudging through docs.perl6.org/language/packages
02:16 tharkun left, tharkun joined
raschipi haxmeister: I think that's has too much detail to start. 02:18
A package is something that says where a variable declared with 'our' will be created. 02:19
'our' creates a variable in the current package. 02:20
So, a package is one kind of namespace.
haxmeister I need to just make one.. maybe make one in a script I already have.. but even better, one in a separate file 02:24
but this page I'm reading doesn't tell me how.. it's just a reference page really
raschipi Other types of namespaces are the lexical scope, the dynamic scope and method resolution. 02:25
You want to make a module? 02:26
haxmeister: Here's a tool that automates it for you: github.com/gfldex/perl6-meta6-bin 02:29
02:33 mr-foobar joined
haxmeister sorry raschipi I need to hand code one so it will stick 02:47
raschipi Have you seen docs.perl6.org/language/modules.html ? 02:50
haxmeister can't get the page up.. I guess my router is glitching or something 02:57
but I can get this one: perl6intro.com/#_perl_6_modules 03:01
only thing is I can't use zef 03:02
well that was a let down 03:04
we need more tuts guys
raschipi That one is about using them, not what you want.
haxmeister yeah
I can't get that page you linked 03:05

skids forgets if there is a single-item ".map" method, like .first for .grep 03:46
03:55 AlexDaniel left
TreyHarris skids: map in lazy context should work fine: 03:56
m: my $counter = 0; my @f = 1..20; say (@f.map({$counter++; $_ * 2})).min; say $counter; $counter = 0; say (@f.map({$counter++; $_ * 2}))[0]; say $counter

TreyHarris skids: that's what you need, right? 03:57
skids I'm wondering if there's a way to not involve a Seq when I need to append generated code the the end of a value to process it. 03:59
TreyHarris skids: example? first involves a Seq too 04:00
skids so "chunk of code" ~ '.map({' ~ $other_chunk_of_code ~ '})' is what I'm using, but I really just want to call the second chunk of code. 04:01
Ah. 04:02
m: 4.&{$_ + 1}.say
camelia 5
skids That does it.
TreyHarris skids: oh, on a scalar. I thought, like first, you meant on a sequence of some sort. 04:03
m: {$_ + 1}(4).say 04:04
camelia 5
TreyHarris skids: ^^ nicer syntax I think.
skids Right but I can only append. 04:05
TreyHarris though if it's in a chain it might not be possible
skids Which was the problem.
TreyHarris oh, literally append generated code, like... eval'ing?
not even Callables?
skids Yeah, generating Perl6 code. Eventually I'll refactor the crap and eliminate that. 04:06
TreyHarris oh. then yeah. I assumed you meant "append" in a hand-wavy AST sort of manner.
sorry
I would've given you .&{} right off the bat in that case 04:07
there is a slightly conciser way with whatever though:
m: 4.&(* + 1).say 04:08
camelia 5
TreyHarris (parens, not braces, because it's a Whatever)
skids: follow?
skids Yeah the code could get complex enough to bury the ownership of the Whatever star.
TreyHarris docs.perl6.org is down for me 04:12
skids here too
TreyHarris I'd argue that if star is confusing, you should probably skip $_ and just use named placeholders to give you even better control and debuggability. 04:13
(Not knowing your use case, but imagining it, I mean. Like if you have an iterator of some sort you could use ($^it-1x, $^it-1y), ($^it-2x, $^it-2y), etc. 04:14
04:15 BenGoldberg left
TreyHarris erm.... $^it1-x, etc. I meant. You can't have a \d to the right of a hyphen in an identifier. 04:15
04:16 xtreak left 04:17 raschipi left
TreyHarris (er, actually, you *can*, but if you do, you take the risk of arithmetic rules taking precedence and seeing a subtraction, so I think itt's best to just pretend you can't.) 04:19
skids Never been much of a fan of the hyphenization trend. Especially for allcaps. 04:20
Anway, placeholders do offer some deconfliction beyond $_, but it's a margnal gain compared to how easy it is to confuse *. 04:21
TreyHarris skids: if you're writing a translator, style is te change underscores to hyphens, because underscores are supposed to indicate "beware, this may be somewhat magical"
s/change/change Perl 5/ 04:22
skids Yeah I know. It's something I more tolerate about Perl6 than like, though.
TreyHarris not saying you have to follow that. just be aware that connotation is out there. 04:23
Perl 6 identifiers are actually subject to precedence-busting in quite a few edge cases, particularly if you play with sigilless variables or with quoting constructs. 04:24
m: my $isn't = False; say "It is $isn't." 04:25
camelia It is False.
TreyHarris m: my $isn't = False; say q'It is $isn't.'

skids recalls something with grammar rule names not liking them.
TreyHarris (I'm not actually sure there's any way to use an apostrophe-containing identifier inside a single-quoted interpolating construct.) 04:26
skids Oh maye it was `
erm '
TreyHarris grammar rules not liking "them" == "identifiers with non alphaunderscorenumerics"? 04:27
04:27 Cabanossi left
TreyHarris I haven't seen that 04:27
skids may be fixed. 04:28
I remember working around it in Grammar::ABNF. Maybe should go un-work-around it. 04:29
TreyHarris it's just that quoting and arithmetic operators--which can cause ambiguity with identifiers--are higher in precedence.

ugexe TreyHarris: i dont understand the second half of your issue 05:09
TreyHarris ugexe: what issue?
ugexe zef 05:10
TreyHarris oh, with zef? Probably an editing issue, as I only had one. Let me look
ugexe you were talking about a url library, and the -u flag defaulting to true
TreyHarris oh... `homebrew browse` opens the browser onto the URL. `homebrew browse -u` just prints the URL the browse would have been opened to
I don't see a portable browser-opening lib in ecosystem, so I was suggesting to default to the -u behavior for now. 05:11
ugexe oh not open source, now i understand
TreyHarris ah-hah. yes. I'll edit. 05:12
done.
ugexe the long way is `zef info zef|grep bugtracker` 05:13
05:14 itsame joined

TreyHarris ugexe: oh, interesting. S22 doesn't provide a homepage attribute (I thought I saw one), just source and bugtracker, both of which can be used to derive a GitHub homepage, but won't work if there's a dedicated project domain. Is that intentional? 05:20
05:21 wamba joined
ugexe "possible" names are: ... 05:21
its just listing things that make sense 05:22
TreyHarris ugexe: oh, I see. I read that like "possible states of an electrical charge are positive and negative" 05:23
i.e., things not listed there are not possile
ugexe yeah, thats probably what it meant, but im saying theres a loophole
realistically there is no reason for support to be defined in s22 05:24
05:24 pierre_ left
ugexe other than as a suggestion 05:25
TreyHarris since many/most projects won't fill-in "phone", I think it's understood as not being a list of required fields. but it does read as an exhaustive list of fields to me. I'd say either add a "project homepage", or explicitly specify, "s/possible names are/possible names may include/" 05:27
05:27 Cabanossi left
TreyHarris and since I think homepage, like source, are likely to be programmatically useful (as I've given an example), I'd prefer it be specified. 05:28
but it needn't be mandatory any more than phone.
05:29 Resol joined 05:30 Cabanossi joined
ugexe not just phone! A fully qualified phone number (with potential cost indication) 05:31
TreyHarris :-)
samcv TreyHarris, what's the windows api? 05:35
on linux it's xdg-open or whatever
not sure on mac
TreyHarris samcv: dunno. on mac it's just "open". you can type a URL into Run: and it opens a browser, so it may just be cmd.exe, but I'd have to test and my Win machine's currently updating 05:36
if I have a class Foo { has Tup2 $.x... } where Tup2 is a 2-ple, can I do "handles" so that .fst delegates to $!x[0] and .snd delegates to $![1], or do I need explicit methods for that? 05:39

Ulti so if I wanted to read a file line by line what's the way thats going to be the best P6 can pull off right now? 14:52
perf wise
jnthn Ulti: Quite possibly the obvious one (for $fh.lines { }) 14:53
Ulti: In so far as it's been optimized a bunch
Ulti okedoke, currently comparing that to the P5 near equivalent while($line = <$fh>) {}
so far its not the best story 14:54
jnthn You may find doing a while loop that calls .get is faster, but it might equally be slower because lines can avoid various checks
14:54 cpage_ left
Ulti yeah thats what I was wondering is it the iteration and the overhead of all the fancy nice things in P6 that is slow vs the raw IO 14:54
guess I can profile this :S 14:55
timotimo you should also try if slurp + lines is any faster
Ulti this is a 9GB SQL file
jnthn Also, decoding/NFG ain't free
timotimo oh, not slurp, then :)
Ulti yeah exactly this is more an actual real world test
because Im noticing most things are fast enough but whenever I hit files of an order I work on from minute to minute its just not really possible yet 14:56
jnthn: yeah maybe buf would be better
so like a binary version of lines
.records
jnthn Well, you can :env<ascii> on opening if you know that's what you have
Ulti *shrug*
jnthn uh, enc
or latin-1
Ulti I have bytes jnthn :3
its obviously bytes I can see them 14:57
but yeah most SQL dumps are about a million encodings at once in my experience
jnthn hah :)
timotimo if you go with :enc<latin1> you'll get almost what you had as bytes, but we do turn \r\n into a single grapheme 14:58
Ulti P5 0m28.867s vs P6 7m16.588s
I'll go with the encoding specified 14:59
14x isnt the worst
given this is on the bigger end of the scale 15:00
it was defo like an order of magnitude or more worse a couple of years ago
MasterDuke_ i just ran another perf record of `for $fh.lines {}' on a 1m line file, 20% in MVM_string_utf8_decodestream, 11% in find_separator.isra.6 15:01
Ulti I mean thats 14x on Perl 5 which has super optimal IO 15:02
MasterDuke_ if i do `for $fh.lines(:enc<latin1>) {}' it's 15% in find_separator.isra.6 and 11% in MVM_string_latin1_decodestream 15:04
Ulti 4m53.429s with latin1 set 15:06

Zoffix points to the table on the right on en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo_opera..._operation 15:20
haxmeister I always loved perl5.. it was my first love.. perl6 is a step above all other interpreted languages.. very good work guys 15:21
timotimo lichtkind: i think you mean "longstocking" 15:22
lichtkind we all love perl, except when we dont :)
timotimo you got it
Zoffix haxmeister: not sure if you got an answer but: you can do it as `say "Surface footage at 12224 RPM = {$mill.calc-sfm :rpm(12224)}";` or `say "Surface footage at 12224 RPM = $mill.calc-sfm(:rpm(12224))"` or `say "Surface footage at 12224 RPM = $mill.calc-sfm(:12224rpm)";` 15:23
TIL $o.meth :named(arg) is valid syntax :D
s/:D/:S/;
timotimo of course it is ;( 15:24
because we don't want to force commas between colonpair named arguments
haxmeister yes Zoffix I figured it out shortly after asking.. but I managed it like this: say "Surface footage at 12224 RPM = " ~ ($mill.calc-sfm :rpm(12224));
Zoffix I always wrote $o.meth: :foo(42)
timotimo oh, does that actually attach the named argument to the method call?
Zoffix timotimo: but I meant there's no () or : after the method.
timotimo i'm afraid you might fall on your nose in some circumstances 15:25

Ulti: what P6 version are you on? 15:29
Ulti Rakudo version 2017.04.3-172-gf2af3db16 built on MoarVM version 2017.04-56-g8ad18b84 so HEAD or close to it 15:31
Zoffix ok; that'll have all the recent IO perf improvements :/ 15:32
Ulti :/
I mean there will have been a lot of memory pressure given my laptop is complete cack at work for everything I have to do 15:33
but its still like for like with respect to P5
Zoffix P6 IO::Path.lines with a for loop is 25x slower than P5 while (readline) on my box... 15:34
Zoffix tries bare nqp
Basically just 8x slower 15:40
For a 5-meg file. `time perl6 -e 'use nqp; my $fh := nqp::open("foo", "r"); nqp::while(($_ := nqp::readlinechompfh($fh)), nqp::null)` vs `time perl -wlE 'open my $fh, "<", "foo"; while (<$fh>) {}'`
jnthn Zoffix: And if you get Perl 5 to do utf-8 decoding too? 15:42
araraloren perl6 25x slower, nqp 8x slower . 15:43
Zoffix Oh right. 15:44
jnthn: then bare-nqp version is 4.4x slower than perl -wlE 'open my $fh, "<:encoding(UTF-8)", "foo"; while (<$fh>) {}' 15:45
Pretty good!
15:46 domidumont left
jnthn Some room for improvement still, though. :-) 15:46
15:46 robertle left
Zoffix And perl6-only version is 13x slower 15:46
timotimo that's almost 2x faster than the 25x slower version 15:47
15:47 lowbro joined, lowbro left, lowbro joined
Zoffix timotimo: well yeah, perl5 with unicode decoding is like 2x slower 15:48
timotimo the thing is that even when we do latin1 decoding, we'll generate synthetic graphemes for \n and \r\n (and maybe also \r?)
Zoffix And actually if you go to IO::Handle.lines directly, it's only 9.25x slower
timotimo or ... only for \r\n?
Zoffix Which is weird :S 15:49
s: "foo".IO, 'lines', \()
Right. no robot. But IIRC it's just delegates to IO::Handle
Ah. It's IO::Handle.lines vs IO::Handle.lines(:close) 15:50
My close-iterator sucks, I guess :|
araraloren Why Perl6 slower than nqp . The parser ?
Zoffix araraloren: it does more things 15:51
araraloren: you get a proper Seq + phasers + IO::Path + choosing mode etc etdc

alphah Hi, Is there difference between thiese two definitions for this token: 16:01
token star-core{ '-' <([ 'x86_64' | 'i386' ])> } 16:02
and:
16:02 zakharyas left
alphah roto token star-core { * } 16:02
proto token star-core { * }
token star-core:sym<x86_64>{ '-' <(<sym>)> }
token star-core:sym<i386>{ '-' <(<sym>)> }
Zoffix alphah: don't think so. Why? 16:03
alphah any difference of any kind that can make first one match and second one thrwos NQPMu error, when parseed against '-x8_64' ?
araraloren no, I think
Zoffix alphah: what's your Perl 6 version?
alphah Zoffix: This is Rakudo version 2017.04.3-47-gf0414c468 built on MoarVM version 2017.04-44-gf0db8822 16:04
implementing Perl 6.c.

camelia ( no output )
Zoffix alphah: what's the NQP error?
m: say grammar { proto token star-core { * }; token star-core:sym<x86_64> { '-' <(<sym>)> }; token star-core:sym<i386> { '-' <(<sym>)> } }.parse: :rule<star-core>, '-x8_64'
camelia Nil 16:05
alphah No such method 'perl' for invocant of type 'NQPMu'

so, without this commit, I get the NQPMu error: github.com/alphah77/galaxy/commit/...801486489b 16:06
Zoffix alphah: you don't have a 2017.03 or earlier rakudos laying around, by any chance. Do you?
As in, does the bug happen there.
alphah I can install latest version, I think I reinstalled rakudo two weeks ago, here is the output of perl6 --version: 16:07
This is Rakudo version 2017.04.3-47-gf0414c468 built on MoarVM version 2017.04-44-gf0db8822
araraloren So make a clean install will be solved ?
ugexe s/<(<sym>)>/<::(<sym>)>/ ?
alphah I'll do that right now and try,,, I will remove ~/.rakudobrew and install again,, is that sufficant? 16:08
Zoffix alphah: no, I meant earlier rakudo. There's some work that went in a few days before the 2017.04 release that we later found had a bug with capture markers in grammars and.... you have capture markers in grammars
timotimo alphah: do you get a better error when you give perl6 --ll-exception?
i.e. a traceback from the "no such method .perl" error?
perlpilot notices that someone is a fan of <( and )> 16:09
I don't think I've seen them used so much :)
jnthn I use them now and then
Zoffix ugexe: isn't that different? <(<sym>)> is <( <sym> )>, no?
jnthn They can save having to use a named capture in various cases
Or capture at all
Zoffix alphah: with rakudobrew, you could do `rakudobrew build moar 2017.03` `rakudobrew switch moar-2017.03` and then you could still switch back to latest 16:10
perlpilot yeah
Zoffix fails to repro any perl on NQPMu on 2017.04.2-6-g894ba82 16:12
alphah: what was the other commit I saw you make, something about changing .ast method to .Str or something? Was that also to workaround some bug? 16:13
alphah timotimo: I got this error message when used --ll-exception: gist.github.com/alphah77/0266d18bb...94bd6e255a
16:14 sena_kun joined 16:15 cpage_ joined

Zoffix alphah: well yeah, why did you replace it?
araraloren Would you mind share your code ? 16:17
16:17 mniip_ is now known as mniip
Zoffix alphah: anyway, rakudobrew 2017.03 rakudo. Use `rakudobrew switch` to switch between it and latest. Try your bugs with both. If they aren't present in 2017.03, report them, as that's very likely due to Uncurse Curse 16:17
16:17 Zoffix left
araraloren I want try it on my notebook . 16:18
alphah I thought that the NQPMu error shows because is trying to access the token before it's made. so I just tried to remove .ast and use .Str,,,, I know not logical but it worked
araraloren I install Perl 6 from source .
alphah araraloren: here is the code github.com/alphah77/galaxy 16:19
araraloren alphah, thank u
alphah you will need to run the program as bin/galaxy laws bin/laws rakudostar-0.7-x86_64 to produce the error 16:20

alphah trying rakudobrew build moar 2017.03 now
moritz and then samcv++ did some AppImage (iirc?) wizardry... is that usable?
jnthn I'm tempted to make a perl6-winimal "distro" using it that makes a mega simple installer that includes Perl 6, zef, and the debugger frontend or so :) 16:23
moritz in case you can't tell, I'm trying to write a section for my book on how to deploy Perl 6 applications
jnthn Ah :-) 16:24
El_Che moritz: you covered docker, I suppose
jnthn The installers that thing makes are super-minimal, but have been successfully used to deploy a Perl 6 app :-)
timotimo don't spend too many pages on docker, what if docker completely dies next year? :) 16:25
El_Che timotimo: then you update the book and get $ again :)
timotimo haha
jnthn Given how widespread docker has become, not to mention containers in general, that's quite a bold prediction :-)
El_Che at the rate perl6 advances, docker seems to be the only sane way to deploy perl6 16:26

araraloren The command what I tried `perl6 -Ilib ./bin/galaxy.p6 laws bin/laws rakudostar-0.7-x86_64` 16:27
alphah araraloren: does the output has value "core => Str|x86_64" , or core => NQPMu ? 16:29
moritz El_Che: re docker, yes
araraloren Yeah, it has
alphah Nice, Im installing this version then
moritz wonders if he should mention moby 16:30
araraloren gist.github.com/araraloren/5598955...d7c71cd0f, alphah
jnthn moritz: yes, when I went source digging today I was like "wait, this isn't the official docker repo" and tried to go to it and was redirected straight back where I came from :P
alphah looks right.
El_Che moritz: as a anecdocte: I have a perl6 app in prod that run from a "global" perl6 install that I don't date to touch. The app will not run on recent perl6 versions :). It would be easy to migrate with docker (what I use elsewhere) 16:31

Just think you have a r.p6: use lib "."; require "m.p6"; and m.p6: say "CALL ME"; 18:05
It will print CALL ME .
18:06 chee joined
TimToady well, there are four or five different things you can mean by "call a script within a certain scope", and sometimes you want 'run', or 'shell', or 'EVALFILE', or even 'EVAL', depending on how much and what kind of dataflow you need in and out of that scope 18:06
it might also mean you need to write a role, if you're thinking of "include" as a way to write generic code 18:08
so I wouldn't get hung up on thinking you have to use a verb called "include" or "require" 18:09
that would be a bit of an XY problem, if so
araraloren TimToady, Which way can import symbol I declare in that perl6 file ? 18:10
require and ?
TimToady well, require can do that, but I don't see eater asking for that, offhand
maybe eater is just looking for qx// or qqx// 18:11
araraloren Em, maybe.
TimToady "run in a scope" is terribly ambiguous
araraloren Yeah. 18:12
eater Im sorry :')
in PHP you have include / require
which will just run the given file in that scope
araraloren Is it like include in c /? 18:13
Import symbol to current scope ?

araraloren Oh, except that ? 18:15
TimToady what are you expecting it to do to the current scope after it has run?

TimToady okay, so you want it to build a data structure that you can access after you call it, which means you probably want a symbol to be imported so you can access that data structure 18:28

TimToady I don't understand what you mean when you say "just a script" 18:32
what are you expecting a script to do that a module can't do? 18:33

I'm not expecting it to be able to do more
but I would like more control over how it's run 18:34

kyclark Given a hash my %h = :one(1), :two(2), :three(3);, how could I sort first by length of key then by key? E.g., so I get "one two three"?
gfldex eater: you can do that with require
kyclark m: my %h = :one(1), :two(2), :three(3); say %h.keys.sort(*.chars || *.Str)

TimToady if you want to define methods, then it's probably a class 18:35

TimToady but classes and roles are also just modules/scripts that you pull in with 'use' or 'require'

timotimo kyclark: you can just return a little list of two results 18:43
be sure to only take one argument, otherwise it'll make a comparator function out of it
i.e. try { $^e.chars, $^e.Str }
but not perl6-try, but more like english-try, or "attempt" or something
araraloren night, o/ 18:44
gfldex m: my %h = :one(1), :two(2), :three(3); say %h.keys.sort({$^a.chars, $^a.Str})
camelia (one two three)
kyclark timotimo, that works, but I don't understand why! What is the $^e? 18:45
timotimo { $^e.foo, $^e.bar } is equivalent to -> $e { $e.foo, $e.bar }
kyclark Default arg like $^a/$^b?
timotimo not exactly, but similar
kyclark Is "e" different from a/b?
timotimo yes 18:46
e is e, but a is a and b is b
you can use any name you want
gfldex timotimo: is a list return value for the callable speced (in `sort`)
?
timotimo $^foo, $^meh, $^a, $^OMG-WTF-BBQ
kyclark Just don't use a/b?
timotimo for every different $^foo you put you'll get one entry in the signature for the block that contains the $^foo
gfldex kyclark: alphabetical order is taken into account for autoarguments 18:47
timotimo the entry will be for $foo instead of $^foo, so if you have an innerer block you can just refer to $foo so it won't make a signature for the innerer block
aye, the argument will be sorted in the resulting signature
gfldex sub f(){ say $^b, $^a }; f(1,2) 18:48
m: sub f(){ say $^b, $^a }; f(1,2)
camelia 5===SORRY!5=== Error while compiling <tmp>
Placeholder variable '$^a' cannot override existing signature
at <tmp>:1
------> 3sub7⏏5 f(){ say $^b, $^a }; f(1,2)
timotimo yeah, don't have () there
gfldex m: sub f { say $^b, $^a }; f(1,2)
camelia 21
gfldex a list as return value for the callable of sort is ENODOC
gfldex goes to fill the form 18:49
timotimo gfldex: it's just sorting the resulting lists
it's just a schwartzian transform of one element to a little list for each of the elements
gfldex true but not exactly obvious
timotimo feel free to point it out in the docs

Remove needless prose in .flat

  - Flat returns a Seq with an iterator fed by original stuff, so it solving any
   halting problems is irrelevant.
  - Flat used to have a bug where it was failing to propagate .is-lazy in certain
   cases, causing full reification, which might be what the original author hit
   upon, to surmise there are any issues with flattening infinite things.
  - Fixes #1202		 19:10

masak moritz: by the way, the blog post about "infix:<< > >> should be outlawed" (featured in this week's Perl Weekly) felt to me like a good example of "I can't think of a use case for this feature, so let's ban it" 19:20

moritz masak: indeed 19:22
masak: my main thought on the topic is that comparisons often include on relatively fixed, known quantity
masak: and the other one that's being compared 19:23
timotimo so never use > again, always use !< ?
moritz masak: and I like to put the lesser-known quantity on the LHS
if $attempts > $threshold { die "nope, not workin'"; }

moritz timotimo: the author argued that you should use $b < $a instead of $a > $b 19:24
timotimo huh
we can outlaw > and force people to use R< for that :P

timotimo: re R< sure :-)
19:25 itaipu joined
moritz though of course in his example, we'd just write 5 < x < 10 :-) 19:26
or 10 > x > 5, neither of which is confusing, IMHO
or even x ~~ 5^..^10

timotimo both $low < $x < $high and $x ~~ $low..$high are helpful for this

Improve C<flat> docs

  - use more detailed examples that show actual flattening
  - include that Maps get flattened too, since they're Iterable
  - Get rid of broken and convoluted `deepmap` example; it destroys Maps and Pairs		 19:30
