mtnviewmark I guess my question is - are "return" and "take" treated specially by the parser - or are they really just normal functions?
seems they are treated specially
07:26 cls_bsd left
eternaleye I think they generate control exceptions 07:26
At least, return
take doesn't need to be lexically in a gather {} block (it can be in a function, which is called in the gather block), so it may just be a function 07:27
Which warns when _executed_ outside a gather block 07:28

mtnviewmark ah okay - thanks - though I'm not sure where that leaves me.... trying to decide if they belong on the operator chart... I'm guessing no 07:36
the problem is that "die" and "warn" are listed in Syn 03 as operators
but it has been pointed out that they are no different than "return" or "take"

moritz_ that's how most test do it
masak now how come when I tried it, it didn't work?
masak tries again
moritz_ you did it wrong? ;-)
btw take a look at t/spec/S05-metachars/tilde.t ;-) 10:20
masak I likely did do it wrong, yes.
I'll take a look.
moritz_ it's not very special, just nice that it works 10:21
masak :) 10:22
I think I'll use that functionality in my last sekrit project. 10:23
I agree that the last one shouldn't throw an exception. actually, regex matching in general shouldn't. :) 10:24

moritz_ with eval()
masak oh. 10:29
that was the solution I finally arrived upon last night.
moritz_: have you seen an example of a PIR assertion? I'm a bit curious about how they work. 10:30
moritz_ masak: I think grammar.pg contains some
masak moritz_: I'll check it out. 10:31

pmurias have you seen by hack which makes XXX display the thing that is unimplemented
? 11:23
ruoso I only saw the commit message while backlogging 11:24
pmurias ruoso: EXPORTALL exports things to the callers packages 11:26
at runtime
ruoso yes 11:27
it handles the known tags
pmurias so how do we make it export to the scope at compile time?
ruoso because EXPORTALL is run at compile-time
because use is still in a BEGIN 11:28
pmurias so it has an optional scope argument?
ruoso no, it should probably use CALLER or something
pmurias & 11:29
11:33 xinming_ joined
ruoso hmmm... last TimToady's change on STD broke item assignment in mildew 11:35

actually it fixed ;)

pmurias ruoso: how should EXPORTALL discover if it is run during compile time? 11:48
11:48 plainhao left, plainhao joined
ruoso in fact... $a.b = $c needs to have its context delayed somehow, because sintatically, the context is undetermined 11:49
pmurias, why would it need to?
pmurias so it can export to a scope instead of a package?
avar C/w 13
ruoso pmurias, I presume it should be some $+VARIABLE 11:50

ruoso or $*VARIABLE 11:51
pmurias ruoso: btw. is there anything you want me to work on?
ruoso well, if you have some spare time, you could take the named arguments
I need to focus on other projects today 11:52
there's the ROADMAP/signature-named.t test 11:53
pmurias ok 11:54
pugs_svn r24828 | ruoso++ | [mildew] implement Item assignment... List assignment is currently incorrect in mildew, but STD is misparsing a lot of things as List_assignment where they are not.\ 11:55
12:02 Minthe left
pmurias ruoso: it might make sense if EXPORTALL received a target argument, as one might want to import thing into somewhere else 12:04

ruoso s/ir/it/ 12:24
I'll throw out an idea here, just because it's been hammering my head for some time, but I couldn't actually structure it, and maybe someone makes it usefull... Somehow I think the grammar engine could benefit a lot from treating the string as an iterator and using continuations for each "branch" in the parsing... It also occured to me that this iterator could store cache information saying "the token foo failed at this position", or "the token bar suceeded
a t this position and here's a match object"... but as I said, it's just something that I've been thinking for a while without much development...
moritz_ ruoso: I think it's already planned (or even implemented in Cursor.pm) that way 12:27
or at least that's what metholate tried to do, with the continuations in gather/take blocks
pmurias STD.pmc uses Cursor objects 12:28
pugs_svn r24829 | moritz++ | [t/spec] more tests for ~ in regexes 12:29
ruoso moritz_, but does Cursor decides which continuation to execute at which moment? that would be the center of the idea, including for LTM 12:31
moritz_ ruoso: I don't know, I'm not that familiar with STD & co 12:32
ruoso ok... well.. the idea is there for someone who, unlike me, knows what he's talking about ;)
could someone give me access to the machine that runs the pugs-commit mail (or do the change in the hook without giving me access, which would be better ;)? 12:36
pugs_svn r24830 | moritz++ | [t/spec] tests for ~ in regexes with mutually recursive rules 12:39

moritz_ is the first one correct? 12:58
pmichaud I'm thinking perhaps no.
rakudo gives a different answer in rvar.
(rakudo thinks the answer is 1)
moritz_ I can explain the current answer by assuming that [1, 2, 3] is bound to @a, not assigned
12:59 ejs joined, ejs left, Helios- is now known as Helios
pmichaud yes, I was thinking that also. It just feels funny. 12:59
moritz_ but given that foo(1, 2, 3) certainly should give 3, it seems more logical to return 1 on foo([1, 2, 3])
perl6: sub foo(@a) { say @a.elems; }; foo(1, 2, 3)

pmichaud no, foo(1,2,3) wouldn't match.
(3 args instead of 1) 13:00
moritz_ right

masak all three agree! :) 13:01
ruoso pmurias, I think STD won't really be changed...
moritz_ masak: what a crazy randomhappenstance
masak moritz_: it's a cause for celebration! 13:02
pmichaud so, what's the right answer on the array passage? 13:05
1 element, or 3? ;-)
moritz_ "yes" *duck*
masak :) 13:06
moritz_ I just don't know
pmichaud oh, of course. it's any(1,3) :-)
masak Perl 6 is full of these mysteries.
moritz_ I think I've wrote tests for this 13:07
t/spec/S06-signature/passing-arrays.t
pmichaud rakudo currently passes those. 13:08
moritz_ sub count(@a) {
my $x = 0;
$x++ for @a;
return $x;
}
ruoso pmichaud, moritz_, foo(<1 2 3>) is one argument only
pmichaud what it had trouble with was integration/*31-49*
moritz_ is count([1, 2, 3, 4]), 1, 'count([1, 2, 3, 4])';
pmichaud ruoso: I know that -- no question there.
ruoso where's the question then?
pmichaud all of them are one argument.
moritz_ ruoso: what @a.elems should return
ruoso 3 13:09
pmichaud the question is whether foo([1,2,3]) leaves @a with a single element or with three.
ruoso [1,2,3] will leave a with 1 argumetn
moritz_ ok
ruoso s/argument/element/
for the same reason
my @a = [1,2,3]; say @a.elems also returns 1
masak seems reasonable.
ruoso perl6: my @a = [1,2,3]; say @a.elems
moritz_ that's consistent with the first test in passing-arrays.t

..rakudo 35296: OUTPUT«3␤»
pmichaud snickers.
moritz_ that's where we start to differ
ruoso that should be 3
pmichaud anyway, if the answer to @a.elems is 1 for the foo([1,2,3]) case, I'm very happy with that.
ruoso because you're binding... and binding means that @a will *be* the array [1,2,3] 13:11
moritz_ pmichaud: does it cause spec test (not integration) failures?
pmichaud moritz_: no, spectests are almost all working now in rvar branch.
it's just the integration tests that are left.
moritz_ the 99problems*.t aren't reviewed that thoroughly; I just looked at those that didn't work in rakudo
pmichaud (a couple of unrelated spectest failures)
ruoso the binding of a value inside a signature is different from plain binding
moritz_ maybe some need @(...) around some arguments 13:12
ruoso or (|[1,2,3]) if you really want
because using @(...) will force list context before the binding 13:13
and using (|[1,2,3]) will defer the context to the signature binding

ruoso rakudo++
moritz_ rakudo++ 13:15
indeed
pmichaud: I'll be gone over the weekend, but I can clean up passing TODO tests when I return on Sunday
(I just was reluctant to do it with the subst.t ones, because we should get spec clarification first) 13:16
ruoso and now STD also accepts \$foo in the signature to delay the context even more
so you can say foo(bar(baz())) where bar delays the context of the return of baz to the signature of foo 13:20
(ok, that could be done with the slurpy capture...)
but foo(bar(baz(),1,2,3)) 13:21
moritz_ it took me three attempts and to parse and understand that sentence ;)

pmichaud okay, time to close some tickets! 16:50
TimToady @a should have 3 elements 16:51
lambdabot Maybe you meant: activity activity-full admin all-dicts arr ask . ? @ v
TimToady ruoso: those are specced to be list assignments
pmichaud TimToady: you mean in my sub foo(@a) { say @a.elems; }; foo([1,2,3]); example? 16:52
TimToady yes 16:53
pmichaud ouch.
TimToady always been that way
wolverian /aw
TimToady the only reason foo((1,2,3)) works the same is by promotion of list in item context to Array
pmichaud oh, I understand that part. 16:54
I'm wondering how to distinguish foo([1,2,3]) from other uses of [1,2,3] in a list.
TimToady such as? 16:55
pmichaud foo(([1,2,3], 4)); # 2
TimToady that's a list of 2 elements
pmichaud right now rakudo has circumfix:<[ ]> returning a scalar reference to an array
so that it won't flatten in list context
as in this case: 16:56
my $a = [1,2,3]; foo($a);
TimToady yes, that seems fine
that should also say 3
pmichaud last question, then: how about foo(1)? 16:57
it autopromotes the 1 into an Array?
TimToady depends on what we decide about @a := 1
but I'd say that 1 probably doesn't provide a Positional role
so the binding fails
pmichaud okay, that answers another question I had, then :-) 16:58
16:59 fridim__ joined
TimToady and 1.[0] only works because we force the 1 to promote to something positional 16:59
not because 1 is intrinsically positional 17:00
PerlJam TimToady: Just to see what I hope is the obvious answer, would a "string" provide a Positional role?
pmichaud okay, that changes the answer I thought I had. :-)
TimToady there's no such thing as a "string" in Perl 6 :)
Str does not provide Positional, while Buf does
(as currently specced) 17:01
PerlJam makes sense to me.
pmichaud so, to recap
with sub foo(@a) { say @a.elems; } 17:02
TimToady Strs are unitary like numbers, so "foo".[0] returns "foo"
any top-level commas contribute to the Capture, not to the first arg
pmichaud foo(1) # error, 1 ~~ Positional fails 17:03
foo((1,2,3)) # outputs 3
foo([1,2,3]) # outputs 3
my $a = (1,2,3); foo($a); # outputs 3 17:04
TimToady and foo(1,2,3) fails
pmichaud and yes, foo(1,2,3) fails # too many params
okay, I can make that work.
TimToady foo([1,2,3],) should probably produce 3 too 17:05
since the top , is a Capture comma, not a List comma
but we've never said anything about extra commas in Captures...
seems like they should be allowed though 17:06
interesting that that overloading of comma goes all the way back to C 17:07
pmichaud another case
TimToady arglist comma is not operator comma
pmichaud oh, never mind.
I figured it out :-) 17:08
TimToady :D
PerlJam foo((1,2,3)) is weird though. It wants to chunk in my head as "foo (( 1,2,3 ))" which makes me want to write it that way (mildly) 17:10
pmichaud then write it as foo([1,2,3]) :-)
TimToady or as foo (1,2,3)
PerlJam TimToady: but would foo ((1,2,3)) have any adverse effects? It seems like something you'd want a warning for "Hey, this is better written as ..." 17:11
pmichaud I think that actually works out the same in this case :-) 17:12
it's eqivalent to foo [(1,2,3)]
pdcawley has recently had his head warped by Smalltalk, where comma is just another binary method so 'foo , bar' sends the message ', bar' to foo...
pmichaud *equivalent
17:13 hercynium joined 17:14 km2 joined
pmichaud okay, here's another set 17:16
sub foo(%h) { ... }; foo( (a => b) );
binding error? 17:17
TimToady I think a Pair is Associative 17:19
pmichaud okay.
so (a => 'b')<a> gives 'b' 17:20
TimToady yes
and .keys differs from .key only in that it gives a list instead of an item
17:23 cornelius__ joined, cornelius__ left
ruoso TimToady, I don't get it... why is "$a.[1] = 'bar'" a list assignment 17:26
?
TimToady because it's not a simple scalar *syntactically*. it has a postfix 17:27
ruoso but it's not a list also
it might be undetermined
TimToady we discovered in years past that this is a rathole :)
which is why the rule is now simple 17:28
PerlJam simplicity++
TimToady course, it's not entirely a free lunch 17:29
you still have to decide how to treat $x[1] vs $x[1,2] at run time 17:30
so $x[1] = 1,2,3 turns 1,2,3 into [1,2,3] 17:31
but $x[1,2] = 1,2,3 produces a warning about the discarded element
pmurias TimToady: is there anything i could do to make STD faster? 17:32
TimToady well, there are several possibilities for speedups 17:33
a real DFA matcher, for one
pulling out the prelude defs 17:34
but that implies a mechanism for dumping current lexpads and for starting current compile in preexisting lexical scope for prelude
having a real lazy list implementation in Perl 5 would help 17:35
having recursive regex in P5 with real closures would help :) 17:36
another thing that will speed up derived languages is not deriving all the data structures from scratch each time whenever you see a macro 17:37
there's obviously a lot of commonality between related languages that is not adequately shared 17:38
the token/fate longest token generation is currently done by patching together strings, which could be a more efficient data structure 17:39
17:39 pbuetow joined
TimToady but according to NYTProf, the using a trie matcher instead of a dfa matcher is probably what hurts the most right now 17:40
so I don't know if the answer is "yes" or "no" :) 17:41
I didn't want to tackle some of these things before gimme5 was rewritten as viv 17:42
which stalled out
ruoso TimToady, so every list assignment actually means "unknown context" 17:45
TimToady it's also possible we could speed up things by changing the parsing rules for metaoperators so as not to inflict all the variants on the LTM, but I'd rather avoid that if we can make LTM work for large token sets
yes, that was the price for not analyzing subscripts for itemicity, which led to madness 17:46
pmurias TimToady: i seem to have lost the link to the tdfa paper, could you find it again? 17:47
TimToady but this is reall only a problem for assignment, not binding
ruoso so, let's just rename it to "unknown assignment" :)
although... my @a = something has a more determined context
TimToady pmurias: um, I don't think tdfa is what we want. when I ripped out TRE it sped up twice as fast. :) 17:48
17:49 cspencer joined
TimToady the TRE algorithm was allocating 19MB on the stack for every match! 17:50
something more like the dynamically generated state sets in egrep is what we need 17:51
where we cache the first N of those in a trielike fashion
but don't build out a full trie for \w* and such
17:52 quatrix joined
pmurias would using a normal DFA to find the longest token and then rematching with a NFA to find which parts of the string matched what work? 17:55
TimToady well, "first N" is misleading. we should cache common words in the trie, and branch out at varying quantifies of N
*quantities
we already rematch in the recursive descent 17:56
the DFA merely has to produce the correct fate
the egrep algorithm, unfortunately, loses info on which alternative you took 17:57
bbl & 18:00
avar Is that inherent in the algorithm or just a case of egrep not keeping around that data? 18:03
ruoso wonders how to detect the context at which the assignment is made 18:04

TimToady azawawi: it is fundamental in p6 that foo() is always a function call, regardless of how the language might change around it 18:35

pmichaud or we figure out that it's a scalar and de-scalarize it, or ...?

masak yup. not here.
guess I could just symlink for the time being.
that worked. 23:06
mberends it was a big kick to get unit tests going. In fact my dev work was thrashing without it.
masak now getting thousands of "use of uninitialized value" warnings. 23:07
mberends I'll need to sync up my parrot to feel your pain
masak not sure you will feel it yet. 23:08
might be here-specific.
23:08 cspencer joined
masak I still get "Unable to open filehandle" here. 23:08
23:08 kisu left
mberends probably directory related 23:08
masak aye, probably. 23:09
mberends insert $*ERR.say: "$stuff" for diagnostics
masak mberends: should a `prove` without arguments really do nothing? the Perl 5 variety doesn't. 23:10
mberends without arguments is wrong. maybe force in "t/*.t" 23:11
masak I know it's wrong. I just tried it.
...to see what happened, I mean. 23:12
IMO, an argumentless `prove` should recurse from the current directory, or something.
mberends I think it's a directory problem. by glob() is a bit ugly, you may workaround with an absolute pathspec. 23:13
s/by/my/
masak which line are we talking about?
pugs_svn r24849 | Util++ | [docs] Typo - s/hueristic/heuristic/ in docs/Perl6/Makefile.PL 23:14
mberends i guess prove --recurse t is drawing a blank. maybe call file_or_dir( '/home/masak/yada/t' ) 23:16
23:17 kisu joined, kisu left
masak mberends: I don't think that is the problem. it's more along the lines of perl6 not finding ../Test.pir 23:17
23:17 kisu joined
masak um, perhaps not. I'll try what you suggested. 23:18
hercynium I'm playing with rakudo, and wonder if anyone can tell me what's wrong with this code:
rakudo: sub f() { my @y = <1 2 3>; my @z = <a b c>; return (\@y,\@z) }; my (@a, @b) := f(); say @a; say @b;
masak mberends: so, which line are we talking about?
p6eval rakudo 35321: OUTPUT«rtype not set␤current instr.: 'parrot;PCT;HLLCompiler;panic' pc 146 (src/PCT/HLLCompiler.pir:102)␤»
masak hercynium: 'return' currently does not take more than one argument. 23:19
hercynium hmmm.... but it will someday, right?
masak hercynium: yes.
hercynium: for now, consider passing an array instead.
as in `return [[@y], [@z]]`. 23:20
hercynium yep... I was just scratching an itch for some syntax I dreamed up the other day and discovered is part of the spec :)
masak heh. :)
the spec and rakudo are slowly converging. 23:21
hercynium binding a ref to a var that has a sigil that shows what the ref points to is *very* nice
masak mberends: for line 11 in prove: &&= works. :) 23:23
mberends re: prove, there is a separate Makefile target for Test.pir, because I wanted the Test.pm always out of parrot, so there are other paths involved. r35321 segfaults but passes 16 tests out of 21
masak we should take Test.pm out of Parrot in November too. that's much better.
mberends: ok, I'm officially stuck. I don't know how to make those tests. 23:24
also, I'm thinking of sleep. 23:25
mberends fair enough. and tomorrow you format you hard drive and use my directory layout, ok? 23:26
masak meh

mberends meantime I'll try to specify PARROT_DIR and LIB_DIR separately. new Makefile tomorrow. 23:27
masak literal: I think that requires some explanation.
mberends: looking forward to it.
mberends thanks for being the guinea pig 23:28
masak np.
what goes around comes around. I assume you've tried to make November? :)
literal masak: GumbyBRAIN is an IRC bot, basically an interface to one of these: megahal.alioth.debian.org/ 23:29
23:29 maerzhase left
masak literal: yes. 23:29
...and the perl6 connection?
literal it's just something he said
mberends I read the November source closely to get started with grammar, but didn't run it
masak aha.
