dalek kudo/lolly: a433f3f | TimToady++ | src/ (8 files):
add SEQ(a; b) circumfix to do what (a; b) did

The $() construct also assumes sequence semantics, since it only wants one value. These are roughly equivalent except where nqp macros need SEQ() to compile down to the bare sequence of statements without any addition coercion. $() also works for code that wants to be backward compatible to pre-lolly days, like spec tests.

I decided to add a SEQ macro rather than an infix:<S>, at least for now
Mouq Unless you changed LoL.perl locally, shouldn't say [<a b c>;1,2,3].perl -> lol($("a", "b", "c"), $(1, 2, 3)).item ? 05:42
TimToady [] should make an array 05:43
(I think...) 05:44
seems like a 2D array is more likely to be useful than an itemized lol 05:45
anyway, I think I'm about done for the night, so feel free to checkout lolly and fiddle with it 05:48
we still need to decide what kind of migration strategy is appropriate 05:49
if we put off merging lolly till after this version, I think this version should have some warning that lollipops are going to explode

TimToady actually, I didn't spectest after the reverse merge, better go do that... 05:55

06:07 [Sno] joined
Mouq So.. what is LoL? Currently it and Array are 'is List', but Lists are mutable, whereas LoL almost wants to be more like a Parcel, it seems... 06:08
06:08 sjn joined
TimToady Yeah, it's really more like a PoP 06:09
though I suppose in theory one could have a generator of lists on the end of a LoL 06:11
but I think list of list is how people will tend to think of it, whatever we call it 06:12
and we have specced the || interpolater that could generate a supply of lists, so it's at least extensible, if not quite mutable in its reified elements 06:14
TimToady should obviously go to bed soon, since he's thinking about lols and their similarity to logarithms: both are kind of metadata used to find the real values :) 06:16
and both of them flatten out something that would otherwise not appear flat 06:17

j4jackj TimToady: what is your favourite non-Perl language in which to program computers?
TimToady well, I suppose C
j4jackj Hopefully your head won't explode when I say... "I like Tcl" 06:30
TimToady it has its merits
j4jackj TimToady: do you ever mess around with ZNC, a program which has a module to load modules written for it in Perl? 06:31
TimToady never heard of it
j4jackj ZNC is an irc bouncer
TimToady hasn't done much irc automation
j4jackj ZNC itself is in C++, but it can load modules which are written in Perl. 06:32
TimToady if I started playing with irc, I'd probably reinvent the whole darn thing
j4jackj I almost tried that once.

jnthn No idea...the modules are precomp'd when it tests them.
Under debugger it gives "Internal error: zeroed target thread ID in work pass" 09:06

FROGGS which is about 8000 passing tests of about 90_000 passing tests 10:14
and a third from these 8000 passing tests...

FROGGS but my guess is that at least another 40-50% are about the language support itself
woolfy So if I can ask... if you would convert this to a percentage of "the whole of Perl 5 commands / functions /etc", how much would that be? Ballpark-figure of course...

jnthn lizmat: Well, to put it another way: anything that does work is working out of luck :)
Native arrays (probably called array, not Array) would directly use the VMArray REPR, alot like Blob and Buf already do. 11:56
And needn't be lazy.
lizmat ok, I get that... I'll just mark tests for "@a of int" and "int @a" differently 11:58

masak I just discovered a case where printing or not printing some output leads to different results in a script of mine.
jnthn masak: Is the difference that you get output in one case and not the other? 12:01
masak no, different results of a computation.
jnthn Oh. Darn.
masak after some thought, I suspect this is because of the copying GC in Moar, and the script's realiance on infix:<===>.
just wanted to report this.
jnthn Ah, yeah
masak not a big thing; I will rewrite the script not to rely on this.
probably the extra output (and there's quite a lot of it) triggers different GC runs somehow. 12:02
jnthn Probably
masak it's quite deterministic in the sense that I always get the right result with the output, and always the wrong one without.
but given the cause, I doubt I'd be able to golf it.
jnthn Yeah; the same program run will allocate the same objects.
masak right.
jnthn And so fill the nursery at the same points

jnthn Yeah, somebody should do that...oh, wait... :) 12:04
masak jnthn: what's the fix, by the way? some internal data that holds a unique identity and survives GC copying? 12:08
jnthn masak: I think pre-reserving a gen2 slot for objects we want a .WHICH for that are in the nursery
And using that as the address 12:09
Which means there's only a memory cost if you use .WHICH, and we don't have to make every object bigger

lizmat not really much, I'm afraid 12:15
timotimo well, all the eval testing stuff 12:16
lizmat menial tasks mostly, hope to unblock on CompUnit at the YAPC::EU
yes, that...
timotimo what were the functions that got nuked? eval_dies or something like that?
lizmat I removed eval_dies_ok and eval_lives_ok from the spec 12:17
I didn't nuke them from Test.pm yet
timotimo ah
lizmat going through the spectests to fix those
timotimo good
lizmat only 281 more files to go
timotimo oh my
lizmat I think I've done 60 or so so far 12:18
and found about 5 cases where tests were dieing for the wrong reason
timotimo that's clearly valuable 12:19
lizmat yup 12:20
I think so
and having them all check for exception types, should allow is to more quickly find regressions
timotimo yup 12:21

jnthn Yeah
lizmat but not all tests have run ?
jnthn Well, the thing is, we *know* the counts don't match up in the NativeCall tests.
lizmat ah, so you need to override that...
jnthn it's because the plan has 26
lizmat how about no plan?
jnthn Which *is* the number of OKs
oh, hmm :) 13:58
Then the harness whines about no plan...
[Coke] do we have a "done_testing" that stops that whining? 13:59

hoelzro morning #perl6 15:54
pmurias hi 15:55
TimToady o/ 15:57
hoelzro I was just thinking about introspectability of Rakudo 15:59
TimToady it occurs to me I could merge lolly if I make it switchable by envvar and default to off for this release, then we'd get SEQ for free
hoelzro ex. wouldn't it be nice if I, in the REPL, could do &infix:<+>.WHY to get the docs on the + operator?
TimToady WHY not? 16:00
16:00 jnap left
TimToady well, other than performance compiling the setting... 16:00
hoelzro TimToady: yeah, I don't see WHY not, but someone has to attach all of those comments =/
and yeah, setting compilation time
heh, I wrote 'WHY not' without even realizing o_O
16:01 jnap joined 16:04 iarna joined
hoelzro we could always make use of what's on doc.perl6.org 16:04
and we could have a --no-docs option to Configure.PL 16:05
so for development, we don't need to build it
16:05 cooper left
pmurias it seems to be that the editor is the proper place to display the docs 16:06
jnthn I'd pondered we might also want a way of saying "if the thing has no docs, fall back to looking in X location for them"
Which'd mean we can keep doc.perl6.org as the authoritative source, install the Pod too, and then just load it on demand
TimToady well, might want to copy them down for local usage during network outagaes 16:08
or is that what you meant already?
jnthn Oh, I didn't mean grab them over the web 16:09
I meant install them somewhere locally that WHY knows where to look as a fallback
hoelzro perhaps along with the code in a CompUnitRepo?
considering that WHY would mainly be used for inspection during development, one could probably store *all* WHY contents in a separate file post-compilation 16:10
but maybe that's overly complicated
PerlJam hoelzro: that would be awesome, but I'd also want a shortcut way to ask for the docs from the REPL. Something like docs('+') where the docs() sub can be a little smart about figuring out what I mean.
16:10 pecastro joined, cooper joined, cooper left, cooper joined
hoelzro PerlJam: agreed, but I think at that point, it's just sugar around symbol traversal and calling WHY 16:10

lizmat ok, that makes sense then, as the test was marked as a nom regression
TimToady oh wait, there's quotes
hmm
that seems buggy
lizmat => is a Pair creator, not? regardless of quoting or nor ? 17:03
17:03 cooper joined, cooper left, cooper joined
TimToady but quotes or parens should suppress named arg interpretation 17:04

TimToady lizmat: why not just add a single Any,Any candidate that is the last candidate for any failed infix:<+> 18:18

TimToady this solution is rather too specific 18:19
18:19 guru is now known as Guest13858
lizmat ok, will do... 18:19
18:19 Guest13858 is now known as ajr_
pmichaud that solution feels weird to me, though. 18:19
18:19 ivanshmakov joined
TimToady well, it should probably be generalized from the message that already indicates the candidates 18:20
pmichaud it seems weird to me to add multi candidates as fallbacks for things one cannot do
TimToady for given operators, you should be able not only to list the candidates, but give a message like "You're trying to add an Apple to an Orange"
pmichaud because if I then start to ask "is there a way to infix:<+>(Any, Any)" I'll get a "yes" answer.
as in, there's a multi that claims to handle it 18:21
TimToady I agree about the multi, it should be the existing error handler made smarter
and maybe asking the operator in question if it has anything to say

This reverts commit 9f4db347c191848101a2baf2b1d02fed37409091.
TimToady in any case, we've always wanted the error to list the argument types and/or arguments as well as the candidates
pmichaud I agree that the error should list the argument types, and that this sort of analysis needs to be part of the error handler and not part of the multi candidate set 18:22

pmichaud yes, I agree on octal
TimToady *shoudn't
my n't is flaking again
TimToady merged in lolly such that it complains on (;) and [;] unless you set LOLLY 18:37
so we can now fix all the old usages
Ven twitter.com/puffnfresh/status/5002...4794290176
pmichaud you all are working on LoL stuff, I gather?
PerlJam
.oO( What do (;) and [;] have to do with adverbs?!? ;-)
18:38
TimToady among otehr things
Ven ^ it's funny because gather used a behaviour deprecated by lolly :P
TimToady adverbs parse that way
:foo(bar) is the same as foo => (bar)
pmichaud: Mouq++ is working on multi-dim subscripts like @a[*;1], while I've just changed circumfixes to be list of list or array of list composers, instead of braceless blocks 18:43
but we need a small deprecation cycle on the latter to find old sequential (;) and change it to SEQ(;) or $(;)
well, or any sigil contextualizer
so unless one sets LOLLY, you get the old semantics with an error, rather than the composers 18:44
pmichaud okay... is LOLLY a temporary thing?
TimToady yes, just one month or so
pmichaud works for me
TimToady or maybe just one release
(one Star release, that is) 18:45
we just need to be sure that (;) misbehaves overtly rather than covertly for a bit
pmichaud I'll follow along for a little while longer and then deep dive to see where Lists are at 18:46
TimToady by the way, there's a spectest that assumes LOLLY already, so spectest without fails one more test than with
I've been studying up on them, so that we can talk intelligently
pmichaud that will be insanely helpful :) 18:47
TimToady my current notion is that we start with gather/take, figure out how to parameterize to support eager and batch and pure code, then figure out how to handshake that down from the context
pmichaud my last notion was figuring out eager and batch first, then the rest... but I agree gather/take is a good starting point as well 18:48
TimToady but just batching gather/take would make a lot of things run way faster
supposing we know that we may, of course
pmichaud I think it depends on whether we consider gather/take to be the fundamental way that many common operations are performed
TimToady it seems like the endpoint for almost all laziness these days 18:49
pmichaud I wonder if that's because it's naturally that way, or if it's because it's the only thing we had for doing good laziness
TimToady and the moarfolk are stressing at all the cache resources consumed by the co-routines
well, I also think the exception on every take is perhaps a mistake 18:50
pmichaud oh, I'm sure of that.
gather/take definitely needs a fundamental rethink
TimToady so we need to divorce the yield from the push
lizmat might I mention that take should work from multiple threads...
TimToady (in impl, not in interface)
lizmat now that we have them
pmichaud well, I think gather/take should be able to work efficiently threadless, too. 18:51
I've often had the feeling that too many things were being implemented using gather/take just because it was easy to do so, and not because it is the best/most efficient way to do it
dalek ast: 23da793 | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | S02-types/ (7 files):
YABO dies_ok -> throws_like migration
pmichaud I'm not sure that's the case... but every time we came up with a gather/take solution for things (like sequences) I cringed a little inside 18:52
lizmat fwiw, I agree with pmichaud on that
TimToady well, sure, but it would be nice if gather/take didn't penalize us quite so much for the abstraction
pmichaud if gather/take can be made insanely efficient, then I'd have no qualms with it... I'm just not sure it can be made insanely efficient.
s:g/insanely//
18:53 cooper left
TimToady but when I fixed the for loop lazy bug, I started figuring out that there was a two-way negotiation that was needed 18:53
pmichaud yes, that's where I left off -- I was working on ways of getting the two-way negotiation in place
TimToady and currently mapiter lets the lower interator decide whether to batch
pmichaud or at least so that in the common case the negotiations work out correctly
TimToady so Range automatically batches, for instance, since it's pure
it will also help to be able to figure out if the code inside a gather is pure, or can be marked as pure wrt the outer world 18:54
pmichaud the challenge with gather/take was always that it had to be mostly lazy
TimToady then you can just batch or eager it automatically
pmichaud in order to support things like lines() 18:55
TimToady yes, well, lines ain't pure
it has external side effects

Add t/spec/S02-types/int-uint.t

This test file is basically a noop at the moment, but will autmatically become active as soon as 'my int8 $a; say $a.WHAT' says "int8" correctly.
pmichaud right
and I've often wanted adverbs or options to gather/take to indicate things like infiniteness
Ven why explicit?
pmichaud purity or batching could be another dimension
TimToady but 'for eager lines()' should help for that 18:56
pmichaud I'll have to catch up later on it... I have some correspondence I have to get done today :0/
:-/
TimToady Ven: you want an explicit fallback for when you can't solve the halting problem as well as the HEBKAC
pmichaud: I know the feeling... 18:57
HTAAOF
Ven solving the halting problem in a perl? uh
18:57 cooper joined
TimToady the pure marker on gather might just be 'eager gather {...}' 18:58
hyper and race probably require an immediate loop: 'hyper gather for @foo {...}' or 'race gather for @foo {...}', in which case it knows it can parallelize the loop 19:00
either that, or the hyper/race distributes the first loop found in the block
ajr_ PEBKAC I understand, but what's the HE in HEBKAC?

lizmat indeed, builds ok now with LOLLY=1 and jit enabled 20:02
running spectest now
Ven TimToady: so the list is allowed not to be reifed on `eager` ? 20:04
TimToady only if it's explicitly marked as infinite; otherwise eager is supposed to try real hard
eager is short for "mostly eager", which means unless known infinite 20:05
gather/take can't know, therefore don't put eager on a loop known to be infinite 20:06
or on a gather containing such a loop
or you will find out how much memory you have :)
and that you don't have even more of it
Ven then we're back to what I said first. if you use `eager` to indicate pureness, you're making it impossible to have an infinite gather marked pure, right? 20:07
TimToady well, arguably an infinite loop is a side effect :P
20:08 guru joined, guru left

timotimo my desktop is quite busy running benchmarks of the most current rakudo/nqp with most curren moarvm with and without jit ... 20:45

timotimo it may have been a bad idea to set --enough-time=10 ... 20:48
and --runs=4, too 20:49
Ven hehehe. 20:50
TimToady well, %*ENV<LOLLY> doesn't find it at all, so I don't think npq sets %*ENV 20:51
timotimo the other benchmark runs i did recently had the same settings, so i thought it'd look misleading if i put the latest version into the same graph and they end further to the left

TimToady sure looks like it :)
Ven like perl5's my $ = (.., ..) ?
TimToady it's the C comma in disguise, yes
or you can think of it as a block without the {} 21:19
so declarations aren't limited to its scope
Ven that's the only difference with do{}, right?
TimToady but I decided that the (<a b c>; <d e f>) form was more useful for multi-dimensional lists 21:20
yes
Ven yes, I;ve been backlogging a bit.
TimToady well, and it works when you pass it as a handler to nqp for gather/take, turns out

Ven I'm kinda excited to see LoL and stuff in action, though. They're a bit of the last bits of 6.0 to me 21:54
pmurias I should learn more about it, as I'm only writing nqp, I'm missing out on the cool Perl 6 features ;)
Ven "what is LoL" *baby don't zip me, don't zip me, no moar* # mouq++ 21:55
