mfollett I'm sure this question has been answered before and I'm hoping someone can give me a link to that answer. I understand what submethods are and what they do, but I'm not really sure when I would want to use one, could someone provide an example? 04:11
04:15 Helios joined 04:34 envi joined
sorear mfollett: submethods are really only useful together with WALK 04:36
a normal method call gets the topmost method of a given name 04:37
submethod + WALK allows you to attach a named piece of behavior to a class and all of its subclasses
this is how DESTROY and BUILD work
(both of which must, officially, be submethods)
diakopter blinks 04:38
mfollett sorear: What is WALK?
sorear I'm not sure submethod has any other use cases besides those two, tbh
mfollett: WALK =~ ^parents>>.can 04:39
find all methods of a given name, ignoring overriding
mfollett sorear: oh, gotcha
sorear: thanks
sorear it's got lots of options, see S12
diakopter: ?
diakopter I only barely remember those words from the irclogs/p6l of the past few yeras. 04:40
years.
WALK, DESTROY, BUILD, submethod.
sorear I use BUILD daily 04:41
the others, notsomuch
hmm, that was an impressive drop 04:43
I'm now running the call benchmark entirely without allocating 04:44
(by using a common pre-allocated instance for the null capture)
322 -> 259 ns for shaving off a 8 byte allocation? really?
diakopter interesting
what was the total time reduction
sorear from yesterday? 04:45
diakopter I mean for the whole run
I assume the ns number is after dividing from millions of iterations/recursions
sorear 8.4s 04:46
yes
2^27 of them
diakopter impressive..
most impressive.
sorear amusingly, the old 2.6 gc is slightly faster (239 ns) 04:47
diakopter heh. fewer deallocations.
sorear well, with no allocations and no gc runs, a generational gc is all write barrier and no savings

pdcawley So, feeling dumb here, especially as I just accidentally asked this question in #moose, how do I join two arrays in rakudo*? I tried 'cat', but it doesn't seem to be there. 06:36

p6eval rakudo 7c74c0: OUTPUT«6␤»
sorear , doesn't destructure, but the context you put it in usually does 06:39
assignment to an array is what does it here
raw ( ).elems would too
flatwhatson rakudo: my @a = 1,2,3; my @b = 4,5,6; @a ,= @b; say @a.elems
sorear .perl is the odd one out
pdcawley Ah...
p6eval rakudo 7c74c0: OUTPUT«6␤»
pdcawley Context. Duh.
sorear there's a strong argument to be made for having .perl destructure
but then people would get really confused when they start using slices 06:40
06:41 phenny joined, ChanServ sets mode: +v phenny, pythonian4000afk joined
sorear (the 'cat' operator, fyi, is used to lazily join an infinite list of strings. For instance, (cat lines("/usr/share/dict/words")) ~~ /aardvark/ will return fairly quickly.) 06:41
pdcawley Ah. So, misreading the synopses then. 06:42
While I'm here... say I have 'class Symbol is Str {}', how do I construct a Symbol? 06:44
And yes, I realise that Symbols usually do more than that, but for the noddy lis.p6 port of Norvig's 'lis.py' that I'm mucking about with, it's enough.
sorear I don't think you can. 06:46
Str has no public constructor 06:47
at least, not a specced one
most of the immutable types can only be created using their own operators & &infix:<but>
pdcawley rakudo: class Symbol is Str { }; say ("Foo" but Symbol).isa(Symbol) 06:49
p6eval rakudo 7c74c0: OUTPUT«0␤» 06:50
pdcawley Hrrm.
sorear that should probably be an error
but applies to roles and enumerations
rakudo: role Symbol { }; say ("Foo" but Symbol).does(Symbol) 06:51
p6eval rakudo 7c74c0: OUTPUT«1␤»
pdcawley Hmm... that's probably good enough for my purposes.

I know what this is. it's the whitespace thingy inside the interpolator being too greedy/needy.
STD seems to get this right.
in Rakudo, the interpolator finds the ' #', thinks the rest of the line is a comment, and then dies. 11:17
we've had other similar cases of Rakudo doing run-on interpolation.

jnthn colomon++# music pun blog post title 11:51
colomon part of the reason it took me so long to figure out was that the error happens when the class is used, not when it is defined. and they were in different files, so I assumed it had something to do with that.

colomon huh. that compiled just fine, and maybe failed when it was "use"d. 11:53
masak colomon: learning which assumptions to question is what makes debugging a humbling experience. 11:54
colomon yes
masak colomon: yes, it would fail when use-d.
because that's when the class declaration code is executed.
colomon crazy 11:55

slavik that is clearly 100 IQ points above my level 18:16

The seed ALGOL68 version was only understood by its creator.

tadzik creator, or algol? 18:18
shortcircuit Dkf wasn't able to build a Tcl version until NevilleDNZ (the guy who wrote the task and ALGOL68 version) supplied a C version.
colomon it seems like the problem statement is missing half the explanation.
shortcircuit Please, leave a note in the task's talk page. I did what I could by pulling in the description of a reciprocal difference, but the Wikipedia page didn't have a very good treatment of Thiele's. 18:19
colomon and the wikipedia article appears to have even less information than the RC challenge. :(
shortcircuit You want to know the real WTF here? the WP page will probably eventually cite the RC page as a reference. 18:20
Between WP and RC, there's something of an odd echo chamber effect. 18:22
colomon afk 18:24
dukeleto from what I can gather: you build an interpolation function (just a collection of (x,y) pairs really) and then with that data, you can build up the inverse fuction i.e. (y,x) pairs 18:25
the description looks like it was put through google translate a few times by a sadistic monkey 18:26
shortcircuit Hehe

shortcircuit mathworld.wolfram.com/ThielesInterp...rmula.html has even less info than WP, but it's distilled, at least. 18:28
The RC task looks like more of an *application* of the formula, rather than simply an implementation of it. 18:29

jnthn tadzik: Is "jest" the Polish verb "to eat", btw?
sjohnson masak: he tought me everything i know
tadzik jnthn: no, it's "is", "(he/she/it) is" to be precise 19:06

jnthn Aww. :-)
masak jnthn: make sense too, though?
jnthn Yeah, I can see the Slovak-ish relation. :-)

yep, we're all Slovians :) 19:07
seen jest
aloha jest was last seen in #perl6 7 hours 47 mins ago joining the channel.
tadzik when he leaves #perl.pl I like saying "Nie ma", which is sth like "There is none" 19:08

what would it look like? fill in the blanks.
jnthn Probably various things starting with "е" :-) 19:11
masak go on...
jnthn The infinitive "to be" is just like in Slovak.
tadzik few times I was in Russian territory near Poland, I could usually talk with people speaking in Polish, they speak Russian and we undestand each other
jnthn The past forms of it are similar (vowel difference, 'tis all)
masak tadzik: I've seen that happen in places not near the Polish-Russian border as well. 19:12
jnthn masak: I'd look to what Ukrainian and Belorusian do but (a) I hardly know either, though I sometimes accidentally speak the former and (b) afaik they skip the present tense "to be" as well. 19:13
masak huh. 19:14
still, there's some intriguing research to be done there.
tadzik hmm, pardon my French, but I see "your colon is full of shit" on reddit. What's "colon" in this context?
jnthn :
masak tadzik: that's a pun.
tadzik hmm
I see no sense when colon means ":"
masak: hm?
jnthn
.oO( well, this puts a whole new slant on "Larry gets the colon..." )
masak tadzik: "colon" also means "big intestine"
tadzik ah 19:15
masak tadzik: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colon_(anatomy)
tadzik now it makes sense
jnthn masak: Yes, I'd be curious to know how it happened.
tadzik I was thinking around "colonel" for some reason
jnthn masak: I would guess it was there in Proto-slavic.
masak jnthn: I'd be curious to see to what extent it could actually be reconstructed in Russian. 19:16
jnthn Aye.
masak jnthn: and then we could go there and mess with people's heads by using the verb in sentences :P
jnthn lol
masak "wtf, that sounds right...!?" 19:17
jnthn At lesat Ukrainian has a verb "to have". :-)
tadzik something similar to „mieć”?
jnthn tadzik: mat' is the Slovak infinitive, and I think in Ukrainian it's the same too or close.
masak jnthn: Russian too. it's called "У-меня-есть" :P 19:18
jnthn iirc, "Я мою..." = "I have"
In Slovak it's "Ja mam"
masak just "mam" in Polish.
jnthn I searched for ages for a Slovak expression that sounded like "so fat"
masak 哈哈 19:19
jnthn Yes, in Slovak "mam" was normally sufficient too.
Unless emphasis was wanted in my possessiveness.
er
possession
tadzik "Ja mam" is specifically "I have", "Mam" is like "have", but there is no disambiguation, for "you have" is "ty masz", "he has" is "on ma", etc
jnthn ...I'm sure that has too many s's.

tadzik hmm. There is a Perl 5 module, Carp::Always::REPL or something, launching the REPL after some die(), so you can inspect variables and stuff. How does one achieve something like this in Perl 6?
masak someone should close a few tickets or something.

masak that's the MO of most of us regulars, anyway... 20:02
Grimnir_ oh yeah. how the hell did I miss that...
ash_ TimToady: for prototype-based inheritence, where you thinking of having a different keyword for declaring them? like instead of class? 20:03
TimToady what is the "declaration" of which you speak? :) 20:04
ash_ well, how do you tell p6 that a class is prototype based?
jnthn package_declarator:sym<thingummy>
TimToady I think of prototype inheritance as completely run-time
Grimnir_ masak: I like to bug you, but I sometimes think I'm too much of a noob and ignorant
masak Grimnir_: a lot of people have said approximately the same thing many times on this channel. including me. 20:05
ash_ so, it would use the same package_declarator (thanks jnthn++ i didn't remember about that) as normal classes?
TimToady why do you want to declare something? 20:06
masak Grimnir_: I guarantee though, that the best way to improve is to keep asking possibly noobish questions :)
TimToady you just need some way of attaching methods to the current object
ash_ TimToady: well, i figured prototype classes would have a different meta-model
Grimnir_ masak: great. that won't be a problem ;)

Grimnir_ what's up with that?

p6eval rakudo 2ee5db: OUTPUT«0␤»
masak submits rakudobug
jnthn Attributes aren't cool.
masak: huh.
tadzik :)
masak I'm assuming that they should be... :)
tadzik Perl 6. Attributes aren't Cool.
jnthn I'm not at all convinced meta-objects should be in Cool.
masak apparently it's bugging people that they're not.
ash_ Attribute.nqp says: class Atttribute is Any; 20:11
masak jnthn: is it the circularity that's bothering you?
jnthn masak: Yes.
I'd rather we're conservative on this for now.
We can move stuff deeper later maybe.
masak fair enuf.
jnthn I guess Cool doesn't have any attributes though.
masak bug retracted. for now.
jnthn So we probably get away with making it Cool 20:12
OOC
masak if I see this coming up again, I will submit a bug.
jnthn rakudo: say Method ~~ Cool
p6eval rakudo 2ee5db: OUTPUT«1␤»
masak \o/
jnthn oh, hm
OK, I guess I can argue consistency there.
masak submits anyway, then
jnthn rakudo: say ClassHOW ~~ Cool # no wei :-)
p6eval rakudo 2ee5db: OUTPUT«0␤»
masak that's different.
jnthn rakudo: say ClassHOW ~~ Any
p6eval rakudo 2ee5db: OUTPUT«0␤»
jnthn Aye 20:13
I'm not sure on whether it should be in Any.
If it's not we maybe make life harder than we want for the meta-programmer.
20:13 wooden left
masak I think it should. 20:13
jnthn The circularity gets a nuisance to resolve though.
Grimnir_ so if I want the contents of the second attribute, how do I do that?
masak but I'm not sure I have the whole picture.
jnthn masak: I'm not sure I do and I'm implementing this stuff. :P 20:14
ash_ Grimnir_: second of what?
sorear niecza has two classhows
ash_ [2] ?
sorear one of them is Any, the other is Moose::Object
ash_ or [1] rather, silly 0
sorear This is Not Idea.

TimToady rakudo: say +Method
p6eval rakudo 2ee5db: OUTPUT«0␤»
TimToady that seems completely bogus to me
Grimnir_ it prints out the contents of both
jnthn ...no warning?
Grimnir_ oh, just a second
sorry
masak submits +Method rakudobug
jnthn TimToady: Should it warn or should Method not be Cool?
20:16 mikehh left
TimToady Cool is for emulating P5ish scalar semantics, not for anything that wants to be able to stringify 20:16
other types can stringify or numify without being in Cool
jnthn Trpp
gah
True.
TimToady but why would you ever want to numify Method?
Grimnir_ rakudo: class crap { has $.snot = "barf"; has $.eat = "me" }; my $c = crap.new(); my @contents; for $c.^attributes -> $attr { @contents = $c."$attr.name.substr(2)"() }; @contents[0].say 20:17
p6eval rakudo 2ee5db: OUTPUT«me␤»
jnthn TimToady: Once, thanks to Parrot, our multis numified to the number of candidates. ;-)
TimToady Cool is mostly to handle generic datums, for some very ordinary value-ish definition of datum
jnthn rakudo: multi foo() { }; multi foo($x) { }; say +&foo 20:18
Grimnir_ oh, stupid me
p6eval rakudo 2ee5db: OUTPUT«2␤»
jnthn ffs. :-)
jnthn dies a bit more inside.
ash_ +&method returns the number of multi's?
jnthn ash_: I'm pretty sure it's not meant to in Perl 6. :-)
ash_ it just does by chance? :p
masak not sure we have a ticket for this already. 20:19
jnthn ash_: Way back in the anals of history, somebody decided that the obvious thing MultiSub should inherit from is...ResizablePMCArray.
masak I'm creating one Justin Case.
tadzik . o O ( busak submits makudobug )
Grimnir_ rakudo: class crap { has $.snot = "barf"; has $.eat = "me" }; my $c = crap.new(); my $contents; my @contents = $c.^attributes; $c."@contents[0].name.substr(2)"().say
p6eval rakudo 2ee5db: OUTPUT«barf␤»
Grimnir_ ok, it's not that pretty, but it works
tadzik meh, I messed up
masak jnthn: that's... deplorable. :'(
tadzik should be: rasak
Grimnir_ I was trying to copy a Java generics example to learn how it works and learn how to do stuff in Perl6 and hopefully afterwards to do it in a much nicer way 20:20
jnthn masak: Yes, well, we'll have abandoned most of Parrot's built-in PMCs in a couple of months I expect.
TimToady testing for such accidental supersets of Perl 6 is going to be...hairy... 20:21
but if we don't, someone will start depending on it
jnthn TimToady: Yes.
TimToady: Worries me a bit too. 20:22
TimToady: Considering Rakudo in a multi-backend-y kinda way is making me think about quite a few things differently.
20:23 wooden left
jnthn TimToady: It seems to boil down to, I want to depend on as little specific to a given VM as is sane so as to reduce the surface area for incompatibilities/quirks. 20:23
TimToady otoh, the more you depend, the more you can optimize :/
jnthn Well, yeah.
20:23 wooden joined
jnthn Thus the "as is sane". :-) 20:23
(I consider being slow rather than pragmatic insane. :-)) 20:24
[Coke] apologizes for parrot defaults not being perl6 defaults in all cases. 20:25
jnthn [Coke]: No need to apologize at all.
[Coke] Oh, I'm apologizing to masak. :P
PerlJam once jnthn implements 6model and the parrot folks adopt 6model as parrot's object model, we'll be able to optimize by increasing dependencies :)

masak [Coke]: no apology needed. and I was describing the leak in Rakudo as deplorable. 20:29
PerlJam jnthn: nor am I. But I am wearing my optimism hat on that subject for a while anyway.
masak zzz &
jnthn PerlJam: It's a mixed blessing. At the moment 6model can, at a whim, change.
20:29 masak left
PerlJam whims++ :) 20:30
actually ... (anything not subject to some deprecation policy)++
jnthn PerlJam: OTOH, the design is such that not much is in its core, so I guess it's less of a problem than with the current model if languages want to change things.

tadzik nah, I'm speaking Ruby
not just .isa, and not even .is_a 20:34
jnthn The important thing is if the thingy that describes a class is an object. :-) 20:35
tadzik ermm, isn't it another way around? 20:36
like, class is the specification and object is an implementation? :)
jnthn Actually it's both ways around. :-) 20:38
A class is a kinda blue-print for instances of it, but another object (meta-object) describes the semantics of a class. 20:39
diakopter jnthn: the anals of history indeed. 20:42
jnthn ...I think I meant annals. :-) 20:43
PerlJam heh
jnthn Spelling. Sometimes it matters. :-)

jnthn sorear: In general, R[S] ~~ R[T] 21:39
If S ~~ T
sorear: I remember asking TimToady that one a year or two back in meatspace and then implementing the answer. :-)
PerlJam: It works very naturally imho because methods just lead to a .^add_method call on the meta-object, and it does that on the nearest package meta-object, which is probably a contextual or contextual-ish. 21:41
jnthn afk a little 21:42
