Tene Aankhen``: what's the advantage of using that instead of xhtml?
PerlJam Tene wins the Wrong Question award tonight! :)
Tene PerlJam: should I instead ask "What's the advantage of using the xhtml one instead of that?"? 02:12
PerlJam Tene: No, the output format is largely irrelevant as long as it's something useful. 02:13
Tene PerlJam: I was asking for the situations where html is more useful than xhtml
02:16 Psyche^ is now known as Patterner
Aankhen`` Heh. 02:23
Tene: Actually, you do win the Wrong Question Award, but not for the reasons PerlJam thinks. ;-) 02:24
The question is "what's the advantage of using XHTML instead of HTML?".
Tene Well that was the other question I proposed. ;)
Aankhen`` Whoops, sorry, I missed that. 02:25
(I've been missing a lot of things lately. No, not my sanity; that's just normal.)
In a nutshell, at present, there are no advantages to using XHTML. 02:26
Tene Are there disadvantages?
Aankhen`` Yup.
Stricter = more effort required to create XHTML documents, higher likelihood of broken documents due to small mistakesā€¦ greater verbosity in general for no good reason. 02:27
And the best part is that unless you're sending the XHTML as application/xhtml+xml (which you're probably not, using text/html instead), it's treated as tag soup anyway by the browser.

What does `<*stuff>` mean? 05:50
TimToady hmm, well, it's regex_assertion:sym<*> in STD, so the syn is a bit out of date there 06:07
but the point is to give extensible rules based on the first character within a /<...>/
but basically the regex can do anything it likes with "stuff" 06:08
so <+...> treats ... as a set of character classes 06:09
but <!...> treats ... as a nested negated assertion 06:10

mauke no, but you can use @-, @+ and substr 13:33
gaal okay, thanks!
gaal wants ($moose, $elk) = first { /moose: (.*), elk: (.*)/ } @applicants 13:34
mauke heh, that's a foldr 13:35
($moose, $elk) = map /moose: (.*), elk: (.*)/, @applicants; 13:36
that should work for horrible reasons
gaal yeah 13:38
but I'd rather not spell it that way :)
mauke you could write this in a sane way if perl had lazy lists 13:39
moritz well, perl has lazy lists 13:40
perl 6, that is ;)
lichtkind moritz the maon obstacle of all that tuts is to sort all knoledge in a sane way
moritz lichtkind: yes 13:42
mauke let ([moose, elk] : _) = map (=~ "moose: (.*), elk: (.*)") applicants
moritz what's that? caml? haskell?
mauke haskell 13:43
13:44 franck___ joined
mauke OCaml would look like this: let ([moose, elk] :: _) = map (fun x -> x =~ "moose: (.*), elk: (.*)") applicants 13:44
and you couldn't write =~
moritz ok ;)
mauke: how do ocaml and haskell compare? which is easier to learn, which is more powerfull? or is it hard to say? 13:46
mauke I like Haskell better 13:47
OCaml is probably easier to learn
moritz is wanted to learn ocaml, but I found the type declaration syntax very ugly ;) 13:48
Juerd There was an ocaml user here a while ago, who said that because he knew ocaml, haskell wasn't hard to learn.
moritz s/is/I/
mauke OCaml is more like a traditional imperative language; it's also parsed top-down, like C
yeah, you're not supposed to use type declarations in OCaml
Juerd moritz: You're a Perl guy, right? How can ugliness scare you :)
mauke and yes, it is ugly in general
OCaml also lacks type classes and other cool Haskell stuff
by using OCaml you'll learn about strong typing, type inference, pattern matching/destructuring, thinking in recursion 13:50
moritz Juerd: there are different kinds of uglyness ;) 13:51
perhaps some time later I'll try again 13:52

gaal a lot of the basic functional stuff is easy for O'Caml, uh lambdamoose to see in Haskell 14:11

Aankhen`` What are the other cases similar to `s[pattern] = "replacement"` where the RHS is treated as if it has an implicit closure around it? 18:13
Are there any practical examples of @arr ~~ /pat/? 18:19
Gothmog_ It's like grep /pat/, @arr in p5, I think. 18:25
moritz Gothmog_: not exactly
if the pattern looks like m/foo$$^^bar/ it matches two successive elements 18:26
one ending in foo, the next one starting in bar
(iirc)
you can't do that with grep
Gothmog_ Hm, lots of magic. 18:28

moritz Gothmog_: read S05, "Matching against non-strings" 18:31
the seperator is <,>, not $$^^

/-^^<alpha>/ 18:33

TimToady Aankhen``: all of the other pseudoassignment happens on declarations currently, so 'has $.foo = bar()' is closurely on the right, for instance 19:07
it looks like S03 and S05 are contradictory on the subject of Array ~~ Regex. I believe S03 is correct, and you have to use Array.cat ~~ Regex to match the array as a pseudostring 19:10

evalbot_r16308 Bool::False
DrSlump I was wondering if there's a planned feature in p6 rules to search for two words in a string, like /fred|joe/ matches lines containing fred or joe or both, /fred&joe/ would match on "joe harry fred"...? 20:18
moritz DrSlump: m/ [.*fred.*] & [.*joe.*] / (but that's a bad hack 20:20
TimToady you'd have to write it /.*fred.* & .*joe.*/
Aankhen`` There *is* an & operator (and an && operator), but it serves a different purpose: "The new & metacharacter separates conjunctive terms. The patterns on either side must match with the same beginning and end point. Note: if you don't want your two terms to end at the same point, then you really want to use a lookahead instead."
DrSlump oh, that's very nice :) 20:21
avar Yes Perl will finally have regular expressions in p6:) 20:22
'c' = character, 'ca' = series of chars, 'c' | 'a' = or of chars 20:25
and * takes care of the rest:)
TimToady Aankhen``: basically, the longname of the rule includes the adverb
we do much the same with module names now, where the identifier is your name for the module, and everything else in the name is advers 20:26
*adverbs
20:27 the_dormant joined
DrSlump in fact, i was trying to make that in perl 5 and ended up with two regexes (/fred/ and /joe/) and wondered why there wasn't an easy way to do that. I've seen a way to do it with lookahead, but i'm not very good with regular expressions and it seems a little cryptic to me. I'm happy to see there's good stuff in the oven for p6 :-) 20:28
TimToady in p6, / ^ <before .*fred> <before .*joe> / would suffice 20:29
20:30 weinigLap joined
Aankhen`` Hmm, not sure I follow. I suppose "sigil" is the adverb, "sym" the category (?), but what is the <$> doing in the name? Is that where the multi dispatch comes in? And then the body is just <sym>... 20:31
TimToady :sym<*> is the adverbial pair 20:32
Aankhen`` D'oh.
TimToady as in all the rest of p6
Aankhen`` Ahhh.
Heh.
The light of understanding finally dawns. =)
TimToady and sym => '*' provides the default string for <sym> to match 20:33
DrSlump TimToady: /.*fred.* & .*joe.*/ speaks more to me, what does <before xxx> do?
Aankhen`` Right.
TimToady and the default symbol name for the eventual infix:<*> operator
but by setting $<sym> the rule can use something matched for the eventual symbol name insteaqd 20:34
Aankhen`` So will an adverbial :X<Y> on any rule mean that <X> matches Y within the rule?
(That light of understanding is still in the process of dawning.) 20:35
TimToady I would want to see a use case for generalizing it that far
Aankhen`` Okay, I was just wondering.
TimToady right now we accept :X as a shorthand for :sym<X> 20:36
that might interfere
Aankhen`` That it might.
TimToady DrSlump: <before xxx> check to see if xxx would match right here without advancing the "pointer"; it's p6's syntax for lookahead 20:37
Aankhen`` DrSlump: In "ab" ~~ /. <before b>/, the rule matches "a" because it precedes a "b", without actually including "b" in the match.
DrSlump ah thanks :-) 20:39

nwc10 if I have the syntax correct: 20:44
state $foo = bar();
what's the type of block that bar() effectively lives in? FIRST?
TimToady used to be called FIRST, is now called START 20:45
equiv to state $foo; START { $foo = bar() } 20:46
20:46 zzzz joined
svnbot6 r16310 | rhr++ | [examples/unitsdat-grammar.pl] correct prefix thinko 20:46
nwc10 ah right.
TimToady (FIRST now represents the first time through a loop)
nwc10 OK. Right now in blead I see: 20:47
$ ./perl -Ilib -wlE 'sub foo {state $a = shift; print $a} foo(3); foo(4)'
3
4
This isn't good. Particularly the lack of warnings
TimToady yes, that is incorrect by p6's lights
nwc10 state does work - this is correct, I believe: 20:48
$ ./perl -Ilib -wlE 'sub foo {state $a; $a //= shift; print $a} foo(3); foo(4)'
3
TimToady well, we already knew the stately mechanism was implicit in the pad from "my $foo if 0"
but its the START bit that is hard, as you mentioned 20:49
*it's
svnbot6 r16311 | rhr++ | [examples/unitsdat-grammar.pl] more prefix thinkos, argh
nwc10 I don't think that it's impossible
it's "just" detecting C<state $foo = bar()>
and turning it into 20:50
state $foo; unless (initialised $foo) {$foo = bar()};
TimToady state $foo; state $foo_INIT; { $foo = bar() unless $foo_INIT++ } or some such
yeah, what you said
20:50 electrogeek joined
nwc10 where C<initialised $foo> is a special op 20:51
TimToady don't know why I put a {...} around; imminent death of the neural net predicted
nwc10 there is a flag bit on the pad that was already spare for it
you've been programming in too much C and Perl, and so it's always now if (foo) {bar;}
TimToady love to nibble dey tiny bits...
nwc10 gah. I want Perl 6. Because I can't nest foreaches in perl with the same $_ 20:52
actually, it's more map {} that needs it
Tene nwc10: so use it 20:53
nwc10 OK. I think that this is correct behaviour, isn't it, for closures?
$ ./perl -Ilib -wlE 'sub foo {state $a; $a //= shift; return sub {state $b; $b //= shift; "$a,$b"}} my $s1 = foo(3); my $s2 = foo(4); print foreach $s1->(5), $s1->(6), $s2->(7), $s2->(8)'

TimToady looks pretty good, modulo the // hack 20:57
nwc10 good.
One of raphael's concerns was what to do when presented with something like:
(my $foo, state $bar) = ...;
my view was, if it's not a compile time error, it's at least a mandatory warning 20:58
TimToady that's not a pseudoassignment, that's a real assignment
so it always reassigns
nwc10 ah right.
OK
I'm confusing it with state ($foo, $bar) = ...; ?
TimToady it's a "Doctor, it hurts when I do this." :)

TimToady ENTER is called only when the immediately surrounding block is entered. 21:54

perlDreamer is the main program considered a block? 21:56
TimToady sure, why not? 21:57
perlDreamer I'm reading through some of the existing tests to get a leg up on the language, and it looks like ENTER is not called that way. 21:58

I'm just having a hard time figuring out what's a bug and what's other things going on.
