lestrrat I don't really get what str.chars is supposed to do :/ 02:54
length of the string?

cotto Who all in here wants Parrot's Select dynpmc to become a thing? pmichaud mentioned that some Rakudo folks wanted to see it, but I haven't had a chance to ask him who. 05:20
05:22 lumi_ left 05:23 lumi_ joined
sorear cotto: a select op would also be an option 05:24
cotto sorear, it would. We already have a dynpmc, but I'm not a fan of the interface.
sorear cotto: rakudo can't generally use dynpmcs as is (limitations in HLL mapping?); there will be a wrapper regardless of what you offer
05:24 wamba joined
cotto sorear, sure. I would like to know what would require the least wrapping. 05:25
i.e. what'd be a nice natural interface
sorear do we want the OS dependancies to exist at the Parrot level or the Rakudo level?
do we want bare bindings to select, poll, epoll, kqueue, etc, or a single unified AIO system? 05:26
cotto That sounds like a Rakudo decision.
but it's also important to figure out what Parrot wants to provide.
sorear right; I'm sort of asking everyone 05:27
05:27 alester left
sorear it might make sense to offer both low-level bindings and a MultiIO.nqp library 05:28
that way HLLs that need to offer select can do so 05:29
OTOH, I've been told that Parrot has no interest in providing direct POSIX bindings
cotto I don't remember such a discussion, but it sounds plausible. 05:30
maybe I do.
The nice thing about Select as a dynpmc is that we have code for it now. 05:32

cognominal The sentence is a pangram that contains all the accentuated chars known to french. 08:13
well, that the definition of a pangram.
To be true, the definition of pangram is silent about the presence of ligatures and accentuated chars. 08:15
Also there are ligatures that are optional like for word with ff 08:16
moritz cognominal: I understand sorear's question differently: are there any ligatures which are written as two characters, but treated as one in French? 08:17
cognominal Many people write boeuf or caetera because they don't know to do a ligature with a keyboard. But if I see these ligatures in the keyboard visualizer when holding the ⌥ key on my mac. Anyway they are so rare that mot people ignore them. 08:28
moritz but there are also cases where 'eu' doesn't stand for the ligature, right? 08:29
cognominal indeed. Like in "il a eu peur" 08:32
moritz phenny: fr "eu"? 08:33
phenny moritz: "had" (fr to en, translate.google.com)
moritz had his last french lessons a decade ago
considering that I had basically no practise, it's amazing how much written French text I can still read 08:34
cognominal But the ligature in bœuf is in oe.
moritz oh
(listening to French is no good, those people just always talk way too fast)
cognominal I will check antidote, may be the ligature is facultative now. 08:35
I feel antidote is the best french dictionary, done in Québec, available on mac, pc and iDevices 08:37
moritz 'oe' as non-ligature also exists
08:37 brill joined
moritz coexister 08:37
cognominal yes, and antidote says indeed "when the sequence o e represents more than one sound, there is no ligature" 08:40
for the ligature æ, antidote says it is up to the user to do it or not. 08:41
personally, I have never seen before the form "curiculum vitæ" mentionned by antidote. 08:43
moritz "curiculum vitæ" looks like somebody being overly smug :-)

pmichaud wfm
speed.pypy.org uses geometric mean (of a suite of tests) to compare pypy against other python implementations. is geometric mean a good calculation to use for a "composite index" like this? 14:32
i.e., if I wanted to come up with an overall comparison of one build versus another... would geometric mean of the benchmark times of each work? 14:33
14:34 BaggioKwok left
PerlJam I looked at speed.pypy.org and really I have no idea what their overall speed score really *means* 14:35
colomon my first naive thought would be arithmetic mean of the percentage difference? I'm not sure why geometric mean might be preferred.
PerlJam It didn't look like it was tied in any way to the importance of the feature being tested
colomon +1
pmichaud I'm pretty sure arithmetic mean of percentage won't be quite right
PerlJam: my guess on speed.pypy.org is this: consider the first two benchmarks -- they have speeds that are .65 and .07 of cpython 14:36
so to find "how much better is pypy than cpython", report the geometric mean of the two
although since geometric means are always less than arithmetic means... there might be a bias there 14:38
PerlJam pmichaud: but better at *what*? It presupposes that the benchmarks adequately measure the speed of "important" things and doesn't unduly consider the speed of "unimportant" things 14:39
pmichaud PerlJam: that's outside the scope of what I'm trying to do
colomon "The geometric mean is more appropriate than the arithmetic mean for describing proportional growth..." sounds like an argument for percentages and geometric mean.
pmichaud the number just needs to say "on this set of benchmarks, build A did X factor better than build B" 14:40
I'm not trying to make larger claims about the overall improvement
14:41 koban left
pmichaud I'll go with geometric mean of the percentages for now 14:42

sorear moritz: really what I'm after is cases where a grapheme-level .comb, .length, or .substr goes wrong 17:16
The Unicode standard itself special-cases Korean, so Korean is definitely not such a language

sorear observation: Rakudo 2011.05 still doesn't have a name 17:21
Su-Shee "George-Henry Miller-Whipplesteen"?

Su-Shee *hehe* Absurdistan ;) 17:23

flussence ooh, someone's making a bash script parsing library for GSoC. The fun I could have with that... 20:32
sbp link?
flussence dev.gentoo.org/~qiaomuf/libbash.html 20:33
sbp thanks!
20:33 miyagawa left
moritz what's wrong with the parser in bash? 20:40
bash has the -n option for syntax checking, so it can surely parse without executing 20:41
20:42 mj41 left
flussence I think the main reason for this as a library is for embedding in gentoo's package management stuff, because it saves a few hundred forks that way 20:43
(all the packages are bash scripts, more or less)
20:45 benabik left
moritz and it only needs to parse (and not execute) them= 20:46

20:46 thou left
flussence IIRC, the package format spec says external commands are only allowed in a few specific places, all the metadata should be plain bash syntax 20:47
(not that people always follow the spec...) 20:48
moritz that's close to the borderline between genious and insanity, or something
flussence nah, it's a few light years from that line :) 20:49
moritz on which side? :-)
flussence well, people have forked the distro more than once over the state of this stuff, so... :) 20:50

whiteknight is it possible to print some kind of status information to the console during the core.pm build? 23:12
like, the name of each function as it is compiled
or anything that would show forward progress?
23:13 ymasory left
pmichaud we'd have to add something to nqp 23:13
er, nqp-rx
whiteknight does Rakudo use the version of parrot-nqp that's bundled with Parrot?
pmichaud yes
whiteknight ok
pmichaud benchmark results for plum: gist.github.com/979705 23:14
whiteknight I may try to add something to the perl6 actions file, to print out something when we compile a function
if I can find a suitable place to add such a beast
