jnthn ...how can we know without seeing your code? :) 00:01

jnthn But if you're doing: has Num $!ichwillbier = 1.5 00:02
Or some such, then yes, correct
1.5 is a Rat.

Add round sub, so rounders.t at least compiles. It hangs, though, so this only half fixes RT#105272.

Radvendii +j #conlang 01:37
damn
how do i add a channel to this irc client?
donri That quite depends on which particular IRC client it might be that you are using. :) 01:38
sorear donri: 185b3293@gateway/web/freenode/ip.24.91.50.147 is a dead giveaway
Radvendii: it's /j #conlang in that client 01:39
Radvendii webchat.freenode.net
bam! thanks ;-)
is there a command line version of irc?
sorear hundreds 01:40
I am not exaggerating... writing command line irc clients is a rite of passage for hackers
irssi is one of the most popular
I'm using that
Radvendii ooh… then maybe i'll make on in perl 6 :-P
does anyone have a tutorial to suggest for writing one? i have no idea where to begin. 01:41
donri sorear: ironically, my irc client does not show hostnames :) 01:42
Radvendii it seems there is a module Net::IRC for perl5 does such a module exist for perl6 as well? 01:48
sorear Radvendii: I never said it was a good idea :p
Radvendii ah. 01:49
donri but if you're feeling brave, you should look into grammars and network io 01:50
if you're feeling brave but lazy, you might be able to link to an existing library via blitzkost-what's-its-name, nativecall or niecza's clr support
sorear I think you mean "if you're feeling brave and have 5 years to burn" 01:51
Radvendii haha. what if im suuuper lazy and just look for one online. Irssi seems good.
donri beware that irssi sucks though 01:52
but don't tell anyone i said so
Radvendii oh?
damn. what should i use?
sorear irssi sucks, the rest suck more
donri graphics in the terminal is an ugly hack
Radvendii damn!
i dont want graphics
i want vim-style
sorear my copy of irssi doesn't do graphics
donri the command line is great as a command line
sorear it's vim-style
donri graphical toolkits are greater as graphical toolkits 01:53
sorear: vim is graphical
Radvendii i mean command line vim
not gvim
donri command line vim is graphical
www.gnu.org/s/freetalk/ is an example of a non-graphical terminal chat client 01:54
sorear bad donri. please don't get into semantic nitpicking with the newbies
Radvendii how are you defining graphical?
donri ed is an example of a non-graphical editor
Radvendii haha. oh. why do you say graphics in command line is ugly?
donri because it's a hack 01:55
and i repeatedly see that biting people
particularly with mispastes to irc
Radvendii i dont understand...
sorear Radvendii: if you want a vim-style irc client and don't fancy spending 5 years debugging one of your own, use irssi, it's the least bad of them
donri ncurses-like interfaces remove most of the benefits of the command-line, yet only providing half-assed graphics 01:56
weechat is arguably better than irssi
if you're into that sort of thing
sorear Radvendii: since you like vim, you don't care what donri has to say
donri :)
Radvendii awesome. ill try out irssi
donri loves gvim FWIW
Radvendii worst comes to worst, i'll stop using it ;-P
sorear Radvendii: donri is arguing against vim-style interfaces in general, not irssi in the specific 01:57
Radvendii ah
donri not vim-style in general, ncurses-style
Radvendii what's the difference?
donri well, vim in the terminal is ncurses-like
Radvendii gah! where do i get GILB?
donri but vim in itself is more than that
sorear Radvendii: donri defines vim to include gvim 01:58
Radvendii oh wait
it tells me
i see
sorear Radvendii: dunno, I just did sudo apt-get install irssi and angels sung for me
donri sorear: it could also be interpreted as my arguing against the modal editing of vim or something such
Radvendii i dont even have gvim. it's not compiled that way by default on mac.
donri quite oppositelike i think that part is genious
Radvendii: macvim?
Radvendii aw damn. sometimes i wish i used linux. but then again... i tried it. it didn't work out for me too well. 01:59
donri why not?
Radvendii but there is a version of apt-get for mac...
donri macports, homebrew and all those
Radvendii i dont remember. it was really buggy, especially with the mac trackpad
donri does not really know mac 02:00
hardware might in deed suck with linux-on-a-mac 02:01
i've heard it working out well but might depend on the mac or how long ago you tried it
sorear FreeBSD also has a respectable package manager, sudo pkg_add -r irssi
02:01 s1n1 joined
sorear sadly, you still can't expect to run Linux on arbitrary hardware and have it completely work 02:02
Radvendii it might also have hurt that for a while i tried arch linux
you have to build that one up from the ground
sorear I actually hear arch linux is quite good
donri oh dear god don't use arch linux
Radvendii i struggled through getting x11 isntalled.
02:03 stepnem left
sorear if you can adjust to a real Unix environment :p 02:03
02:06 jeffreykegler joined
benabik I would not recommend fink for the mac at this point. It's a bit outdated and clunky. It uses apt-get but more or less forces you to build from scratch. Homebrew is much better. And MacVim is the way to go for vim. 02:07
benabik re-lurks.

donri djanatyn: any particular part of it?
djanatyn donri: I dunno. I think I get it.
02:23 orafu left
Radvendii what is the [^10] up to 10? 02:23
djanatyn it's just, is there a difference between the * before the "..." and the * after the "..."?
donri yes and no 02:24
02:24 orafu joined
djanatyn Radvendii: pretty sure it takes the first ten elements and returns them as a new array 02:24
since it's an infinite list, it only grabs ten
donri ^10 is a range of 0 to 9 or 10 not sure
djanatyn: * is "Whatever" and its meaning depends on the context / how/where it is used
Radvendii that's kind of weird. we already have the .. operator
02:25 woosley left
donri Radvendii: it's just a shortcut 02:25
for one you get away with less parenthesis
Radvendii mkay. what about ...? what is tha operator?
donri forgot what it's called but it's like .. ranges but more magical
... * means infinite, never-ending range 02:26
Radvendii hahaha
so how is *+*...* evaluated?
donri 1, 2 ... * means to continue the sequence 1,2...
Radvendii oh
that's brilliant
donri *+* is plus as a function
02:27 odoacre joined
Radvendii and it just knows that by * we mean the last element? 02:27
donri 1, 2, some-function ... * uses the previous items in the sequence as arguments to some-function and the result is the next item
based on the arity of the function
Radvendii ah. so it's a very specific notation
djanatyn that seems very magical >_> 02:28
donri it's multiple notations working together
djanatyn i guess not when you think about it. I didn't really get it before
donri rakudo: (* + 2)(3)
p6eval rakudo fdba16: ( no output )
donri rakudo: (* + 2)(3).say
p6eval rakudo fdba16: OUTPUT«5␤»
donri if you use an operator on "Whatever" it produces a function that takes that place as an argument
so (* + 2) is the same as -> $x { $x + 2 } 02:29
Radvendii but 1, 2, (sub) ... * is very specific
donri (* + *) is the same as -> $x, $y { $x + $y }
Radvendii: how do you mean?
Radvendii what if i did 1, 2, *+*, 4, 5, *+*, ... *? 02:30
what would it do?
djanatyn donri: ...is that kind of like haskell partial function application?
like...in a weird twisted list sort of way?
except
donri rakudo: say (1, 2, *+* ... *<100)
p6eval rakudo fdba16: OUTPUT«1␤»
djanatyn never mind, then, I guess not
donri rakudo: say ~(1, 2, *+* ... *<100)
p6eval rakudo fdba16: OUTPUT«1␤»
donri mhm
djanatyn (...) reminds me of (loop) in common lisp 02:31
donri: wait, it is?
sorear djanatyn: in a weird twisted way, yes
donri djanatyn: kinda yes
Radvendii i guess my question is this: what does putting a lambda in a list do?
djanatyn Yeah, I think you get what i mean.
sorear it's just an object, it gets put in the list
Radvendii but when you apply "say" to it, it evaluates?
djanatyn Is there a perl debugger so I could step through that expression or somethig?
okay. 02:32
well. I think I've got this now :D
donri rakudo: say ~(1, 2, *+* ... *>100)
p6eval rakudo fdba16: OUTPUT«1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89 144␤»
djanatyn > say ~(1, 1, &[+] ... *)[^10]
donri instead of * for infinite you can also have a function that tells the end
djanatyn rakudo: say ~(1, 1, &[+] ... *)[^10]
donri *>100 is the predicate for "is more than 100"
p6eval rakudo fdba16: OUTPUT«1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55␤»
djanatyn rakudo: say ~(1,1 ... *)[^10] 02:33
p6eval rakudo fdba16: OUTPUT«1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1␤»
djanatyn ...oh! okay, got it
so where should I put this test case, and more importantly, what kind of test case should I write?
donri from what i understood what you're really testing is &[+] as *+* 02:34
djanatyn ...actually, I should figure that out myself
donri i've never seen that syntax though so i can't really help
djanatyn yeah, that's what I'm testing
it is the same
donri I only know it to be &infix:<+>
Radvendii rakudo: say ~(*+* ... *)[^10]

Radvendii i dont understand. when you evaluate a lambda in a list, it takes the previous elements and uses them as arguments?
is that right? 02:39
donri Radvendii: well it's particular to ..., not lists 02:40
Radvendii so what is the overarching rule? 02:41
donri perl6advent.wordpress.com/2010/12/0...-operator/
sleepy time for me 02:43
the rule is very liberal as all things perl
there's no single one way to use "..." 02:44

awwaiid idea: define (at runtime) a new operator, say \\, which takes a list on the left and right, passing the list on the left as STDIN to shell execution to the list on the right, returning a list. 13:54
the idea being to add a simple op that would make the REPL good for doing some shell manipulations

raiph What from a layered architectural pov is the common layers of existing/main P6 impls? 16:52
something like backend, nqp*, grammar, core settings, non-core ?
[Coke] there are no common layers, I think. the STD grammar is probably the only thing they have in common.
raiph do impl copy/paste from each other at the higher layers?
[Coke] parts of the setting are shareable, yes. not sure if anyone IS sharing them. 16:53

raiph could ff from niecza be copied to rakudo, and vice versa? 16:53
16:53 jeffreykegler joined
benabik ff might be able to be copied from b 16:54

[Coke] what is the github way to write an issue number? "issue #79" ? 16:54
benabik Either #79 or gh-79 16:55

[Coke] raiph: find the ff impl from niecza and see. ;)
PerlJam raiph: depends on what you mean by "copied" :-)
raiph: If you're just talking about conceptually, the answer is yes.
16:55 serk17 left
PerlJam raiph: if you mean to cut-n-paste code, that won't work at all 16:56
raiph coke: i'd already taken that on by dint of commenting. ;) 16:57
PerlJam: why not?
benabik niecza's ff impl is based on niecza's internals. github.com/sorear/niecza/blob/mast...r.pm6#L136 16:58
Things like ::GLOBAL::NieczaActions.gensym is unlikely to exist in Rakudo.
PerlJam raiph: as benabik says
raiph PerlJam: it can't be that way in general, of course, but for higher level stuff, implemented purely in terms of existing stuff, if that existing stuff is common to impls... 16:59
colomon doesn't ff have to be pretty low-level? it's got per-usage state, that's not normal for operators

benabik I thought ff existed in b. :-/
colomon Niecza's the only implementation, it appears.
PerlJam yep
[Coke] argh, niecza checks out an unpushable copy of spec.
raiph colomon: that might not be normal, but, unless an impl makes non-spec assumptions, why would that affect things?
[Coke] raiph: implementations might cheat for speed, or because they don't implement enough perl6 to not use the lower levels. 17:01
so, yes, as said: in theory, that sharing is possible. It just may not be practicable. 17:02
colomon ralph: I don't think you can implement ff in Perl 6 without macros, which no one supports yet. 17:03
raiph coke: right. but by doing that they ultimately slow things down. that's why it makes sense ff is not yet implemented; i'm pretty sure it ought to be done in terms of lower level p6 that should be the same across most p6 impls
colomon how else do you write a function which behaves different at every point it is called? 17:04
raiph colomon: gotcha.
colomon: must not only carry state, but state per appearance in code. even generated code. 17:06

colomon consistent with itself
not throw an exception, or return Fail or something 17:38

"From the outside looking in, the basic technique is to replace the normal grammar mechanism with a custom grammar that intercepts method lookup" 21:13
What you're really doing is replacing the normal grammar *meta-object*, which is the thing that defines how grammar packages work.
Put another way, it's not so much a custom grammar as a custom implementation of what "grammar" means as a keyword. 21:14
PerlJam aye. I understand that, I just suck at writing :)
