notandinus nice
06:44 brtastic joined
notandinus can i make an int bound to a range? like say i make $t bound to 1 - 2 then $t++ after 2 will loop it back to 1 06:48
if $t == -1 then $t-- will loop it back to 2
guifa2 notandinus no, although you could write your own class that lets you 06:55
notandinus i see, thanks 06:57
guifa2 Not sure the exact context you have for it, but I think most people tend to only make adhoc ranges which makes such a thing fairly moot. Personally, I rarely if ever store them in a variable (only time I do, I think, is when I'm subs to accept them as arguments) 06:59
notandinus tokens will be faster than regex right? 07:08
if i write both token and regex in a way that regex too doesn't backtrack then will token still be fast? 07:11
07:13 jmerelo joined 07:36 parabolize left
guifa2 a token is literally just a regex with the :ratchet option applied 07:38

guifa2 jmerelo: yes! It's not *quite* ready for release, and unfortunately I'll be out of town for a week or so so it maybe will be ready around new years 07:45
jmerelo guifa2++
guifa2 But all of the precalculations are well worth it
When using it as a module, it's a literal order of magnitude or two faster to access stuff 07:46
and load
And the data files are smaller too!

notandinus jmerelo: it has a typo in second code block 07:58

raku-bridge <frost> Hi, I think there is a mistake in today's advent calendar article. In the second example code, it should be await $one-second-passed
jmerelo notandinus: let me check that
guifa2 Yup, definitely a typo 08:01
raku-bridge <frost> Haha, someone has noted it.

Use of uninitialized value element of type Any in string context.

xinming_ In this example, the $a in FIRST will get Nil, What is the right way to achieve this please? 11:13
I know I can doing something like, if $t == 0 { $t = $a }; But I wish to understand wether we can have FIRST DWIM 11:14
moritz $t ||= $a ? 11:15
11:15 sjm_mobile left
xinming_ moritz: Nope, what actually I want is doing something with FIRST phaser. 11:16
I just realized, maybe I can't do that.
moritz FIRST runs before the code in the loop body 11:22
xinming_ Yea, I just realized that. :-) 11:23
Need real world example to learn the lesson.
11:24 v_m_v joined
notandinus can i make amulti sub based on return value? 11:27
moritz notandinus: no
notandinus i see
moritz that would break causility
*causality 11:28
notandinus what does that mean? 11:29
oh if i specify the return value type in signature, should be possible then right?
moritz consider a(b()). If &a and &b are both multis, things get complicated 11:33
in Perl, context flowed inwards; the caller told the callee which context (list, item, void) it expected
Raku takes the opposite approach: routines return objects, and those objects can know how to be usable in different contexts 11:34
also, consider this: multi sub a(returns Int) {}; multi sub a(returns Str) { }; multi b(Int, Str) {}; multi b(Str, Int) {}; b(a(), a()) 11:35
just a simple example of an ambiguity if we allow dispatch based on return values 11:36
it's even worse if there are multis with many arguments, which are the return values from other multis
notandinus ah i see, makes sense, thanks 11:37
moritz then you have, in the worst case, and NP problem trying to solve which multi to call :-)

.tell lizmat links to book "using raku" and "perl 6 at a glance" need to be updated in r/rakulang sidebar 11:48
tellable6 notandinus, I'll pass your message to lizmat
notandinus can we specify multiple return signatures ? something like " --> Int|Bool"? 11:54
lizmat notandinus thanks for the nudge, fixed 11:56
re Junctions in return sigs, no, you can't, at least not atm 11:57
notandinus lizmat: hmm raku.online doesn't seem to work,

lizmat that's the link I just put in?
notandinus oh are you using the new reddit?
lizmat argh I need to change that at two place?
which URL do you use ?
notandinus i'm using the old one 11:59
not sure if both are different

notandinus what would be better, a state or global var ? 12:32
i have a subroutine that will push to a variable but i want it to remember previous pushes so that it can return quickly without recomputing 12:33
kinda like memoization
so should i make that array a state or global var ?
12:36 natrys joined 12:47 Kaiepi left 12:49 sjm_mobile left
notandinus what causes this: paste.debian.net/hidden/8776c48f (code included) 12:52
with every push the previous push value changes
even though .say confirms that the values i'm pushing is different 12:53
line before represents what i'm pushing and line after the array after the push, every push is changing all previous values 12:54
12:56 Kaiepi joined, wamba joined 12:58 raiph left
notandinus it works as expected when i change the pushed data to hash but i want to keep it an array 13:01
hmm works fine when i make it .Array, it was .List 13:02
what causes list to behave like this?
13:08 sena_kun joined
coldpress my guess is: the wrong behavior is because all elements refer to the same object, pass-by-reference. The correct behavior with .Array is because each element now refers to different objects. 13:10
13:10 Altai-man left
notandinus ah i see, let me check that 13:11
coldpress: yeah that is it, i checked by not pushing but changing the value 13:13
13:13 sjm_mobile joined
notandinus hmm so the fix is to push .Array? 13:13
coldpress not sure how .Array is different from .List, maybe the perl monks here can explain
lizmat perl monks ? 13:16
notandinus here:
docs.raku.org/language/list#Assigning
Assignment of a list to an Array is eager.
raku monks
can i make it non-eager? 13:17
coldpress lizmat: perlmonks.org/ 13:19
lizmat coldpress: I know of Perl Monks, have been a monk for a long time until a very vocal part of the monastery made me decide to leave 13:20
notandinus is it becuase of that thing i linked? ^ i'm not sure how that would affect pushes
lizmat notandinus: am currently too busy to look into your question, hope someone else will pick up 13:21
notandinus i see, it's fine 13:22

raiph notandinus: An `Array` is a subtype of `List` but their behaviours are also complementary.

raiph notandinus: If you switch your code from pushing `($pos-y, $pos-x)` to `[$pos-y, $pos-x]` you'll find it works. 15:53
15:53 sjm_uk left
raiph notandinus: This is because the `Array` literal constructor just takes the *values* contained in the Scalar`s `$pos-x` and `$pos-y` and puts those values into its own fresh `Scalar`s. 15:56
notandinus: Whereas the `List` literal constructor does *not* by default put values in `Scalar`s -- but if you list one, it stores that instead of the value it contains. 15:58
