hoelzro jnthn: hoelz.ro/files/perl6-posix.tar.gz 09:11
if you run test.p6 in that tarball, there's a really odd error about unboxing and such
jnthn hoelzro: Will this work on Windows? 09:12
jnthn is guessing not
hoelzro also, when I started to remove functions from the module, I started to see segfaults or garbage values
I haven't tried
arnsholt I'll have a look
jnthn arnsholt: Ah, cool. :) 09:13
arnsholt I need to recompile NQP/Rakudo/Zavolaj so it'll be a while before I can actually run it thought =)

arnsholt hoelzro: That's odd 09:40
hoelzro yeah, I know!
my NQP fu isn't good enough to figure it out 09:41
I'm going to spend more time on Perl 6 stuff after I'm done with my coursera stuff
arnsholt jnthn: How much of the sixmodelisation replacement of Parrot types with NQP types has happened so far?
As a first guess, this might be the dyncall bits returning a Parrot STRING* where that isn't allowed any more 09:42
jnthn arnsholt: Very little.
arnsholt: str is still a Parrot STRING
arnsholt Hmm
jnthn arnsholt: Is it something to do with string memory getting corrupted? 09:43
arnsholt Nope
"This type cannot unbox to a native string"
jnthn Hmm 09:44
Do you know where it's coming from?
I mean, Perl 6 Str objects have to be unboxed like this
arnsholt The line info in the backtrace points at: nqp::getattr(nqp::p6decont($args), Capture, '$!list')
jnthn It's possible a non-string is being passed somewhere a Str is expected?
Huh! 09:45
arnsholt Which is part of a larger call: nqp::nativecall(nqp::p6decont(map_return_type($r.returns)), self, nqp::getattr(nqp::p6decont($args), Capture, '$!list'))
jnthn Oh...hmm.
So it could be on the inside of the call
arnsholt Although the actual error might be happening inside the C code
jnthn Yeah, that's my guess. What is being called? The argument really is a Str, yes?
arnsholt The sub decl is "our sub ttyname(int $fd) returns Str is native", invoked as "ttyname(0)" 09:47
jnthn Oh...very odd.
arnsholt Yeah. Grepping for "This type cannot unbox" in NQP, the only matching file is P6opaque.c
jnthn I'd have thought "unbox" would refer to calling, not handling result...and hat's the only Str in there. 09:48
arnsholt Yeah

cognominal I am implementing permutations using gather/take but I am getting something wrong. get_attr_str() not implemented in class 'Coroutine' gist.github.com/cognominal/5458754 10:05
btw, the rest of the error message is useless : current instr.: 'print_exception' pc 111585 10:06
jnthn That looks like an error reporting fail rather than the actual error.
arnsholt Yeah
jnthn Try running with --ll-exception to see if it gives anything more helpful
arnsholt Looks like the exception printer expects all callables to have some property, which Coroutines don't have 10:07
jnthn Doing return unless @l; inside a gather/take looks highly suspect though.
cognominal jnthn: I thought so to but what is the alternative to stop the recursion
jnthn cognominal: Put the return outside of the gather block? 10:08
cognominal ok, no error now but no output either but I can go from there 10:09

PerlJam
.oO( What would an infix:<perl> op do? )
13:21
moritz today's mini challenge: define a custom meta operator that can take an identifier, and applies the string as a method to all args 13:22
[Mperl] 1, 2, 3 would be the same as (1, 2, 3)>>.perl 13:23
moritz is not quite serios
*serious
13:23 dakkar joined 13:24 lizmat joined
PerlJam moritz: that would be sort of like a meta-map (but the reduction doesn't make enough sense there) 13:25
masak moritz++ # mini-challenge
my (pessimistic) prediction: defining metaops will not work in Rakudo. :/ 13:26
maybe in Niecza.
colomon I'd be surprised if it worked in Niecza.
masak timotimo: have you seen the great quote by Charles Babbage? :)
moritz also note that it's not quite a meta op
because it doesn't take an op as argument, but an identifier
colomon unless you mean in the grand sense that it's reasonable to implement code that allows you to define metaops. 13:27
masak timotimo: 'On two occasions I have been asked, — "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" [...] I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.' en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Charles_Babbage
moritz should have termed it a "macro-challenge" :-)
PerlJam masak: that last bit of the quote "I am not rightly to apprehend ..." comes to mind *all the time* on IRC ;) 13:28
timotimo masak: i have
masak timotimo: it's like the 19th-century version of 'Two different users asked me: "Will the program get the output right if I get the input wrong?", and I'm like "WTF!"'
13:29 census left
timotimo the output may be right even if the input is wrong. but it'll be right for the wrong inputs. or if the inputs are truly bogus, they'll be wrong or - hopefully! - an exception or some defined error state at least 13:29
hoelzro I love that quote
colomon PerlJam: on the internet in general! 13:30
arnsholt hoelzro: Could you do me a favour and add your problem to the Zavolaj issues? 13:38
I'm a bit too busy at work ATM to deal with it right now, sadly =/ 13:39
timotimo what's a good way to let a user supply a filter to a method that will be passed to .grep? i tried method frob($crit) { $something.something.grep({$_<frob> ~~ $crit}).something.something }, but that didn't seem to work properly. is that because of a bogus $crit or something else?
PerlJam timotimo: I don't even understand what you're asking for. 13:43
hoelzro arnsholt: sure! 13:44
colomon timotimo: the natural way is just frob($crit) { $something.something.grep($crit).something.something } unless you want to not smartmatch $crit against the entire object passed to grep
FROGGS timotimo: if grep accepts a block, why dont you just pass a block?
hoelzro I could even post more tarballs that illustrate different problems later tonight
13:45 snearch left
timotimo because the most common usage would be to pass in just a number 13:46
or a list
but sometimes you want "everything but the number 1"
FROGGS I think you can do that only by passing a pointy block 13:47

diakopter _sri: thanks for the link. If I were imagining undertaking such a thing for a language-dedicated VM (well, "runtime") such as Rust's, I'd steal libuv from node, including exposing the event loops from the VM, port node's JS api directly to a language such as NQP, then implement the currently-standard nqp:: IO ops on top of that "node" API (for short-term compatibility), in addition to adding new ones for async, then implement(/redesign/adapt) ... 17:35
... the Perl 6 IO API on top of that, then gradually eliminate the middle layers over the next months/years...
_sri diakopter: i believe that's exactly where they started
diakopter hah.
_sri but now they are moving in a different direction to take advantage of threads 17:36
diakopter do you know why they couldn't use threads with libuv? 17:37
_sri it's quite interesting, apparently they have something very similar to parrot tasks (green threads mapped to a number of real threads)
it could still use libuv internally, don't know details yet i'm afraid 17:39
the goal seems to be a synchronous looking API that scales really well with dirt cheap green threads (through non-blocking I/O) github.com/brson/rust/blob/io/src/...mod.rs#L11 17:41
very very close to how parrot did it 17:42
17:43 tgt joined

_sri whiteknight explained it to me once 17:47
diakopter parrot has native event loops or async IO? no.
_sri implicit yes
i'm not sure if it ever made it into a real release
diakopter implicit?
_sri but it was supposed to use non-blocking I/O for everything 17:48
diakopter *cough*
lots of things were supposed to happen
_sri *all* I/O operations would look blocking, but behind the scenes use non-blocking I/O
diakopter okay, well, I'm not sure why we're talking about some theoretical parrot that's completely different from the current [or ever existing] one 17:49
_sri i think it might have been part of the parrot release that added threads
in the end it's just an optimization 17:50
diakopter hm, you seem to have interpreted my msg "except parrot has no native event loops or async IO...?" as me asking whether it had them.. instead of what I meant, which was "it doesn't have those... why do you think it does?"
_sri ah, ok 17:51

BenGoldberg So, I've been thinking about &is-prime since last night... and wondering, how difficult would it be to change it so that instead of returning True and False, it would only return True if the number is known (absolutely) to be prime, false if the number is known to be composite, or lastly, a Num, $p, between 0 and 1 (exclusive) indicating that the number is prime with probability at least $p. 21:47
masak BenGoldberg: "how difficult" != "how desirable" 21:49
PerlJam BenGoldberg: sounds weird.
BenGoldberg: if you were going to go through that trouble, why not "True but $probability"
?
masak simple protocols have their clear advantages.
PerlJam BenGoldberg: i.e. *always* give the probability 21:50
BenGoldberg Oh, I didn't think of that :) 21:51
Ok, second is-prime related question: How desirable would it be to change the spec so that it requires that multiple calls to is-prime on any Int do multiple independent tests? 21:54
masak isn't the probability simply 1/2 ** $tries ? 21:55
BenGoldberg Normally, yes
But libtommath uses an internal lookup table
masak why would you need that back from the function? when it's you who passes $tries, I mean?
BenGoldberg Well, in the case of the library being used, if $tries is bigger than 256, it simply returns an error code, instead of doing the tests 21:56
Secondly, if do $x.is-prime(4) twice, the second call will perform the exact same computations as the first call, due to that lookup table. 21:57
PerlJam BenGoldberg: why do you want to change is-prime in these ways? What's the motivation? 21:58
Are you trying to minimize surprises when someone passes a low value for $tries? 21:59
(or a too-high value)
BenGoldberg rn: 5.is-prime(10000)
camelia rakudo 37c995, niecza v24-37-gf9c8fc2: ( no output )
BenGoldberg rn: say 5.is-prime(10000)
camelia rakudo 37c995: OUTPUT«False␤»
..niecza v24-37-gf9c8fc2: OUTPUT«True␤»
PerlJam Seems to me that one would be better served by a constraint on $tries 22:00
If nothing else, you could get a meaningful message when you do something screwy :) 22:01
BenGoldberg rn: say 5.is-prime(257)
camelia rakudo 37c995: OUTPUT«False␤»
..niecza v24-37-gf9c8fc2: OUTPUT«True␤»

BenGoldberg If separate calls to is-prime were specified to use independent, random numbers for the tests, then $x.is-prime(1000) would be semantically the same thing as doing [&&] map *.is-prime, 1..4 22:06
err, make that [&&] map *.is-prime(250), 1..4 22:07
err, make that [&&] map $x.is-prime(250), 1..4
But do to libtommath (used by nqp, used by rakudo) using the same "random" numbers each and every time, the results cannot be combined that way. 22:09

cognominal I suppose that if I want to avoid infinite recursion on some of my rules in my bast grammar, I must express them using <EXPR> and precedence? 22:21

jnthn cognominal: Main thing is be sure to avoid left-recursion. 22:22
cognominal ya, that's exactly what I mean 22:23
japhb_ I understand the desire for independent tests in is-prime, but couldn't the immediate solution be to just cap the test count so that Rakudo does the right thing on insanely high inputs? After all, I suspect 2**-256 is a WAY smaller probability than the chance of bit error, even with ECC.

japhb_ I find it interesting that the operational part of the infinite stream answer (the part before say) is actually shorter than the finite list code 23:33
timotimo do i see correctly that that sequence just kind of repeats after a pretty shord period? 23:36
BenGoldberg It never repeats exactly 23:38
japhb_ timotimo, I don't see it -- it is tricky on the eye, but so far I'm seeing almost-the-same for 8 or 10 bits and then a missing or flipped bit 23:39
timotimo ah, ok
i could just look up the wikipedia article ;)
23:42 berekuk joined
japhb_ Wow, that is one cool sequence, for how simply it is defined. 23:43
23:43 berekuk left
timotimo it reminds me a bit of how you generate a whatsitcalled code, where going +1 or -1 will always be one bit flipped 23:45
japhb_ The third paragraph in the WP article under "Some properties" reminds me a lot of Penrose tilings ... while non-periodic, any layout of radius R is guaranteed to appear again within a distance of nR (and I think for the classic dart/kite, n == 2?)
timotimo but that one's made rather recursive
japhb_ Grey code? 23:48
Sorry, Gray Code 23:49
I always forget which way his name was spelled
timotimo i think that's the one, yes 23:50
you take the sequence so far, prepend it with a 0 and a 1 and flip one of them around i believe
BenGoldberg Here's another way of generating it 23:59
