Doc_Holliwood wasn't there a shortcut to define a sub that is just a single expression? 00:36
codesections m: sub f(--> 42) {}; say f; 00:42
camelia 42
codesections like that? ^^^^
moon-child I mean, you can just do sub f { 42 }. Seems short enough to me 00:50
japhb Or if it doesn't have to be a Sub, then just { 42 }. 00:53

notagoodidea So after talking with Ben Hoyt, Raku would not been included in the `countdown` comparison due to being to slow :'( github.com/benhoyt/countwords/pull/74 09:15
From profiling the "optimized" version, my findings tends to be : 09:18
(1) Using the default trait on the Hash and `==` comparaison with .AT-KEY method seems faster than .EXISTS-KEY 09:19
(2) Calling .AT-KEY was the most costly call based on the profiler 09:20
09:25 wingfold joined
notagoodidea (3) pull-one method seems to a bit costly too. In the first `for` loop, the IO::Handle version is at 99% inlined. Most suprising, is that the for $_.lc.words loops call the pull-one method from Str (and it is not inlined). 09:27
But words output a Seq? 09:28
Okay, no it is words that call pull-one on the string passing by .lc. 09:31

summerisle can anyone provide some insight as to why the `block` token only matches one member-mapping token for the example on L61 of this gist? gist.github.com/RomanHargrave/4f2b...0a470ecbfc 16:52
i'm also somewhat confused as to why this works with an explicit definition of newlines, but not \v 16:53
17:02 jmerelo joined
guifa2 summerisle: it's because you have member-mapping as a rule 17:15
rules expect whitespace after *each* inner token 17:16
so rule { a b c } is equal to token { a <.ws> b <.ws> c <.ws> }
17:17 patrickb joined
guifa2 It's that finally <ws> that's throwing things off, because <ws> includes (by default) vertical white space. So it consumes the new line and all of the space on the next line. Then it tries to handle <eol> which requires a linebreak, which no longer exists 17:18

vrurg .tell tyil I have sent you request. Not sure if it was delivered, though. 22:31
tellable6 vrurg, I'll pass your message to tyil
tyil what kind of request?
summerisle another grammar question. i have a token 'package' defined as `<name>+ % '.'` and a token 'fqdn' defined as `<package> '.' <name>`. I'm expecting <package> to match everything up to the last <name> in a sequence such as 'a.b.c.d.e' such that `<package>` captures <a b c d> and `<name>` captures 'e'. 22:32
unfortunately, this will not match
i should probably go read the regex docs again
moon-child summerisle: I guess you need to make it a regex, because tokens are ratcheting 22:33
summerisle i suppose 22:34
moon-child summerisle: but easier is probably to ditch <name> and grab that later in postprocessing
summerisle i had initially intended to do this in postprocessing but I suppose that I was hoping I could take care of all decomposition in the grammar
i guess it would make the grammar more efficient if i made fewer assumptions as well 22:35
or made more, i mean to say
yep, making <package> a regex does it 22:36

dag29 I'm trying to pull multiple lines from a file at once for $file.IO.lines -> $line1, $line2, $line3 but I don't know before hand how many lines the file has.  How can I avoid an error when it gets to the end of the file and doesn't find all 3 lines and still get however lines there are left? 22:41
22:45 wingfold_ left
moon-child for $file.IO.lines -> $line1, $line2 = Any, $line3 = Any { ... } 22:45
lizmat $file.IO.lines -> $line1, $line2?, $line3?
or what moon-child said :-)
dag29 ty, I'll try those out :) 22:46

*unusual
tyil it's not common, but very RFC compliant :D 22:50
if I understand the issue correctly, this patch should solve it p.tyil.nl/k3bz 22:51

vrurg is trying hard not to implement bind config format parser... 23:00
tyil vrurg: could be a fun project for a weekend :> 23:01
23:01 aborazmeh left
vrurg tyil: not in my vision. I want it to be extendable, free-form. So that it'd be possible to add, say, roles implementing own data formats; to pre-declare block types and their properties. 23:04
tyil would be cool to see use of roles for different data formats 23:09
right now I'm using Config::Parser::$name as a means to an end
(but note that Config is my first module, so it's probably full of things that could be done prettier in Raku)
23:11 wingfold joined
codesections wonders whether Encoding::Registry could be used to read config files 23:12
ugexe i would assume it gets used every time you read a non-binary config file 23:14
codesections well, most of those presumably use the utf_ encoders that are built in to the VM 23:15
23:16 wingfold left
codesections I was wondering about registering a custom encoder to extract data from a file before/without reading it in as a Str 23:16
23:16 pecastro left 23:17 vike left, dag29 left 23:22 vike joined
ugexe i still dont follow 23:24
why would you want to not using the e.g. utf_ / latin1 encoders from the VM?
23:25 meltingwax joined, wingfold joined 23:26 wingfold_ joined, wingfold left 23:27 g0nk joined, meltingwax left 23:28 daemon is now known as daimon
codesections I mean, it's a kind of off-the-wall idea (and I'm not _super_ serious for config file formats), but in theory if you have a structured config format, you should be able to skip processing some parts as strings, and encode them to whatever datatype you want. (E.g., the normal flow would be ConfigFile ==> Str ==> MyConfigObj, but this would let you do ConfigFile ==> MyConfigObj, which might be faster) 23:28
But reading config files is not an area where performance is super critical most of the time, and it'd make error reporting for invalid configs _much_ harder. Which is why I'm not really serious. I just think the fact that we have access to that low a level feature of the runtime pretty neat 23:30
