mudman Exactly what does using the ‘@‘ sigil on a variable name imply? 00:01
raschipi Perl6 will use different interfaces when dealing with it.
mudman So, its a “promise” that the thing does the positional role? If so, how strong a promise? 00:02
jnthn m: my @a := 1 00:04
camelia Type check failed in binding; expected Positional but got Int (1)
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
raschipi It will refuse to put anything that doesn't implent Positional in there. Because it knows it won't be able to index ("[ ]") into it.
m: my @a := 1 but Positional 00:05
camelia ( no output )
jnthn Also it implies, on a variable declaration, that (by default) an Array container should be created there
And assignment is thus into that container
m: my @a = 1..5; my @b = @a; @b[2]++; say @a
camelia [1 2 3 4 5]
jnthn m: my $a = list 1..5; my $b = $a; $b[2]++; say @a 00:06
camelia 5===SORRY!5=== Error while compiling <tmp>
Variable '@a' is not declared. Did you mean '$a'?
at <tmp>:1
------> 3a = list 1..5; my $b = $a; $b[2]++; say 7⏏5@a
jnthn m: my $a = list 1..5; my $b = $a; $b[2]++; say $a
camelia Cannot resolve caller postfix:<++>(Int); the following candidates
match the type but require mutable arguments:
(Mu:D $a is rw)
(Int:D $a is rw)

The following do not match for other reasons:
(Bool:D $a is rw)
(Bool:U $a …
jnthn m: my $a = [1..5]; my $b = $a; $b[2]++; say $a
camelia [1 2 4 4 5]
jnthn So from those two, 1) assinging into @a makes mutable containers for each element, and 2) assignment between @-sigil things is copying, not by reference 00:07
raschipi In this last jnthn example, only one array was created by the [ ]. If there was @-sigiled variables involved, other arrays would be created and asigned. 00:08
00:09 lizmat left 00:14 silug left
raschipi So, to tie into my "uses other interfaces" comment above: if the variable has $, '=' will modify it's container. But if it has @, '=' will copy into the array. 00:17

Voldenet Can I somehow easily set affinity of the thread? 01:06
01:06 aborazmeh joined, aborazmeh left, aborazmeh joined
Voldenet I've thought of using pthread_setaffinity_np on MVMThreadBody's thread (I guess it might work on unix), but that'd be incredibly bruteforce way to do this 01:09
01:10 mcmillhj joined
raschipi Voldenet: P6 threads are m:n so that information isn't easily manipulated. 01:10
The threads you see don't correspond to operating system threads. 01:11
Voldenet Oh, so I can't really count on doing stuff on uv_thread_t and expect it to work, eh 01:12
raschipi No, the P6 scheduler can remap the user threads to any operating system threads at any time. 01:13
Voldenet Well, I wish to get some of that stuff in the future, though even libuv devs don't have much love for that approach 01:14
I guess what comes from C, stays in C
raschipi You could try to write a scheduler that keeps these things fixed, they're pluggable. 01:15
01:15 mcmillhj left
raschipi You can provide your own Scheduler implementation that decides what to run, where, when. 01:16
Voldenet Ah, so _theoretically_ I could implement /pure pthreads/ scheduler in native C 01:17
raschipi P6 uses m:n to save memory as I understand it. A user thread that gets blocked stops using a OS thread from the pool. This avoids needing a lot of threads. But I don't know of any motive why it couldn't just launch a new OS thread and keep it 1:1. 01:18
Let them block, Linux can just swap them out. 01:20
Voldenet Yeah, and with OS threads we'd get some fancy features (like affinity bound producer-consumer queues) 01:21
raschipi Especially important when Numa is around. 01:22
01:22 mcmillhj joined
raschipi Try to make fork work too. 01:23
There's an alternative Scheduler implementation: github.com/jnthn/p6-test-scheduler 01:24
01:24 wamba left 01:27 mcmillhj left
timotimo raschipi: the scheduler is for tasks, not for threads 01:30
when you create a Thread.new, you'll get what you'd get from pthread_create 01:31
raschipi OK, so it also can't see OS threads?
Voldenet Oh..., so I actually could use pthread_setaffinity_np
timotimo what can't see os threads? 01:33
and what does "see" mean?
raschipi Let me rephrase. What's the difference between 'tasks' and 'threads'? 01:34
timotimo task is a callable that gets pushed into a queue
thread is a pthread plus management datastructures that belong to moarvm, usually also including a libuv event loop
well, callables + arguments i guess 01:35
01:35 konsolebox left
b2gills $*SCHEDULER.queue(:hint-affinity) 01:36
timotimo b2gills: that only tells it to put the task into the affinity queues 01:37
01:39 sena_kun left
timotimo affinity queues have the property that the general queue will never steal tasks from them when it's bored 01:39
01:39 mcmillhj joined 01:40 mson left
raschipi It might be enough. 01:41
timotimo the OS is, of course, still free to pingpong that thread between processors
pthread_setaffinity_np with pthread_self (via nativecall) should work if you do Thread.new yourself 01:42
01:44 mcmillhj left
Voldenet Oh wow, it lives! :D 01:44
I got 15% free performance just by setting affinities :P 01:45

mudman [sorry: was called away] raschip: yes thankyou, that’s clear. 02:12
02:14 mson joined
raschipi mudman: ask away if you have any 02:34
mudman well, since you ask…. jnthn’s last example; 02:38
m: my $a = [1..5]; my $b = $a; $b[2]++; say $a
camelia [1 2 4 4 5] 02:39
mudman … the second assignment, $b = $a; assignment b/w two scalars means “make a copy of whatever’s in container $a and put the copy into $b” 02:40
raschipi You need to know there's two containers there. 02:41
mudman … in this case though, there was an array container in $a. So a copy of the container was made - i.e a new array …
raschipi One is an scalar container and the other is an array container created by '[ ]'
What is copied (a new one is created) is the scalar container and bot point ot the array container (which there's only one). 02:42
It's not a deep copy. 02:43
mudman … but the copy is sort-of shallow: i.e. the (now two) arrays are using the same set of scalar containers… yes/no/[you’re crazy]?
raschipi Answered before you asked.
mudman ah.. 02:44
raschipi "(now two) arrays" There's only one array.
02:44 evalable6 left, evalable6 joined, ChanServ sets mode: +v evalable6
raschipi Array don't just pop up, they need to be created. Either by Array.new, [], or the default action on declaring a @ variable. 02:45
02:45 ilbot3 left
mudman well then, I need to think about that for a bit because in my (distorted) view, the assignment from $a to $b could just as well be a bind… let me play with the repl for a bit lest I waste you’r time 02:46
s/you’r/your/ 02:47
raschipi A variable in it's usual state points to a container that points to an object. Binding changes the first level while asignement changes the second. 02:48
02:49 mingdao joined
mudman Yes, I’m pretty sure I’ve got that… but in the example, didn’t $a and $b end up pointing to the same container? 02:49
… or two seperate containers each pointing to the same object (ie the (singular) array)? 02:50
raschipi In that case there's 3 levels of redirection. From the variables to 2 containers which point to another container (which is the array).
mudman Thankyou, that’s clear (although, I’ve said that before :-) 02:51
raschipi Sometimes you just need to hear it again.
mudman indeed 02:52
02:53 comborico1611 left
raschipi And it's also important the fact that P6 treats an array and a container pointing to an array the same, it auto unboxes. 02:53
mudman yes, as I’ve read… the scalar container will “hide itself” whereas an array or hash container makes no such effort. 02:54
02:56 ilbot3 joined, ChanServ sets mode: +v ilbot3
raschipi It's important to chase pointers even when the language doesn't have either pointers or references. 02:57
mudman “to chase pointers” meaning chase down exactly what’s going on here as I’m trying to do? 02:58

ZzZombo How doable is embedding Perl6 into, say, a C++ application? Or at least compile for a different target virtual machine that is embedded into said program? 12:37
timotimo you can embed a moarvm into any c/c++ program, or in fact anything that can call into C 12:39
jnthn There's not yet a formal API, but it's been done. See Inline::Perl6.
timotimo hold on, Inline::Perl6 actually embeds a perl5 inside perl6
i.e. when the perl5 interpreter finds Inline::Perl6, it'll exec a perl6 that then uses Inline::Perl5 to call the original script
at which point it can then just "do nothing" when Inline::Perl6 is loaded, because the perl6 is already there 12:40
12:40 lizmat left
jnthn I don't think it can exec it though, since it's all in the same process :) 12:40
Not to mention that I've seen code setting up MoarVM to run something
But yes, NativeCall will be involved too
Oh, also I see what timotimo meant: it's not quite "exec" so much as "just use MoarVM to invoke perl6.moarvm with a "use TheBinding" and TheBinding uses NativeCall to set up callbacks that can be used from C/C++ land 12:42
ZzZombo ah, I always wondered how exactly do those two work. Do they actually run the respective Perl executables? How do they get info out of them
timotimo Inline::Perl5 binds libperl.so or what it's called
jnthn Yeah, and Inline::Perl6 mostly re-uses Inline::Perl5 for all the heavy lifting, and just has a bit to load libmoar and set that up 12:44
ZzZombo interesting.

SmokeMachine jnthn: the original tests of zip-latest are different from the docs... it isn't done on any are done: github.com/perl6/roast/blob/master...test.t#L16 18:40
is it ok to change the tests or the docs should be changed? 18:41

SmokeMachine m: react whenever Supply.from-list(^4).throttle(4, 1) { .say } 18:51

SmokeMachine shouldn't it become done when the original supply become done? 18:52
gagalicious is perl6 more popular than perl5 now? coz perl5 is good enough already and perl6 seems to be in dormant mode forever? 19:03
SmokeMachine looks the $done is never being seted: github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/mast...y.pm#L1434 19:05
timotimo gagalicious: where did you get the info about "dormant mode forever"? 19:06
El_Che gagalicious: your statement kind of contradict itself 19:08

timotimo i think perhaps one 5 got switched with a 6 by accident 19:08

El_Che we kind of agreed that Perl isn't like the Highlander 19:09
"There Can Be Only One" does not apply

geospeck Is there any way to get all the methods that an object responds to? For example in Ruby you can call "obj.methods" and it prints all the methods that obj responds to. 19:19
timotimo m: say Str.^methods 19:22

geospeck yes, that's what I was looking for. Thank you very much timotimo! 19:23

wander How about "value context"? 20:25
moritz what abouti t?
wander It says it's "sink, Boolean, string, or numeric", so what is "sink"?
moritz void
wander is `given $var { when / pattern / { ...} }' "sink"? 20:26
or I cannot find a direct example of it quickly :3 20:27
moritz $x; 1 20:29
the $x is in sink context
because nothing uses the value
m: 1; 2;
camelia WARNINGS for <tmp>:
Useless use of constant integer 1 in sink context (line 1)
Useless use of constant integer 2 in sink context (line 1)
20:30 s0me0n3-unkn0wn joined
wander yes, I know these are "void" 20:32
what I meet is "Specifically, a /.../ matches immediately in a value context (sink, Boolean, string, or numeric)"
20:33 s0me0ne-unkn0wn left
wander so is there an example of matching in a "sink" context? 20:33
moritz m: 'abc' ~~ /a { say "I'm matching"}/; 20:35
camelia I'm matching
moritz ^^ your example
wander Just around! 20:37
Thank you.

Herby_ rookie question: are grammars helpful if you don't the order of objects in a string? 21:22
sorry, the order of patterns 21:23
teatime can be
21:23 cpage_ left
Herby_ for example, if I wanted to parse a torrent name: The Walking Dead S05E03 720p HDTV x264-ASAP[ettv] 21:23
I dont know that the title will always come first, or that the season and episode would be before the resolution 21:24
I was looking at trying my hand at porting this python module to p6: github.com/divijbindlish/parse-torrent-name 21:26
since I havent really used grammars much, I thought this might be a good exercise

El_Che Herby_: I don't se why not 21:34
see
the parts have recognizable parts 21:35
so you'll end up with something more reasable than a simple regex 21:36
