skids jvcakg: Hello
AlexDaniel zostay: you are right, that's how it was before GLR
00:01 cpage_ joined 00:02 scz joined
zostay even if i wasn't, my mental map got all messed up by that... eventually i will recover 00:02
RabidGravy heads up to anyone who cares, there may be a "slight" infelicity in doing a subsequent .grep on a Supply that is the result of a previous grep
zostay is @$a still safe if $a = 0 .. 10**15? i think it will lazily evaluate, but it will start filling up memory, won't it? 00:05
not important to me for what i'm working on now, but to help me rebuild my mental map... 00:06
vendethiel m: say (@(my $a = 15)).perl
camelia rakudo-moar 3259ba: OUTPUT«(15,)␤»
leont Why would that not be safe?
zostay i just meant it would create an array with 10**15 elements over time, right? 00:07
or not?
vendethiel no, it's only a one-element array
zostay i'm trying to understand
what? i missed something 00:08
leont List context doesn't do much 00:09

leont And you probably mean ... not .. 00:10
jvcakg anyone here has a free time on making me a site? we can be partners, must be talented =)

AlexDaniel { ‘it should’ } 01:45
skids I would think an "is nativecall" sub with actual code in the body should probably warn. 01:46
01:46 colomon joined
skids *is native 01:47
(Warn as NYI, that is, until we have the S06 wrapping stuff, and definitely not run the native code without the {*} somewhere in there) 01:48
01:50 pierre-vigier joined, vendethiel left
mspo I think { * } must be expanding to something 01:54
skids What it's supposed to expand to is in S06, but I don't think it's quite implemented that way yet. 01:55
mspo okay I think this is some other kind of bug 01:56
this is amazing 02:00
it's really just a sometimes kind of situation 02:04

skids gfldex: I don't think any code in the to-be-imported package is called -- just the EXPORT hash is used. 02:48
gfldex the calling of EXPORT in the imported package is called here github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/nom/...d.nqp#L664 02:54

gfldex my $result := &EXPORT(|@positional_imports, |@to_import); # or somesuch is on my v6.d wishlist 02:55
02:55 Util_ is now known as Util
skids Maybe the EXPORT hash could do some fancy AT-POS stuff :-) 02:57
gfldex i just need the tags as named parameters in &EXPORT 03:02
EXPORT as it is, is a nice flexible ways to react to the wishes of a modules user. As soon as you start to do that, tags become pretty much useless. You have to provide them in is export but you can't devide what symbols to return from &EXPORT based on those tags. 03:03
so you either hava tags or positionals for use 03:04

autarch hmm, I just said this in #perl6-toolchain but there's more folks here so I'll repeat it ... 04:46
I think I have a more or less working Test::Stream 04:47
and by more I mean it has events, a Test.pm6-alike sub exporter, and it has a context system for making sure that test events appear to come from the place where you call ok() rather than inside the ok() sub or elsewhere
and by less I mean no built-in IPC support and it could probably use more tests
and it has no docs yet
github.com/autarch/perl6-Test-Stream
skids autarch++ though I don't know much about TAP etc. 04:53
autarch actually, the whole point of this system is that it's not tied to TAP at all
though the distro does include a TAP formatter
but it'd be very easy to output other test formats too
skids Have you taken a look at the specialized roast/packages/Test/ modules? -- some of them get a little deep in the weeds. 04:57
04:57 lostinfog left
autarch I don't really expect this to replace anything in the core 04:58
04:58 revhippie left
autarch We talked about making the Test.pm6 in core an internal-only thing and recommend this distro (probably renamed to Test) for the ecosystem to use 04:59
it's actually really important that everyone use an event based test system as soon as possible in order to make it easier to build testing tools (and to test the testing tools)
but I don't know that there's any desire to actually put the thing I wrote into core, and my understanding is that p6 is aiming for a lightweight core to avoid the p5 "why do we have this ancient piece of junk in core?!" problem 05:00
skids Certainly parallelizing tests is good. Is there any predictability built in, so that we only get spurious failures due to weird scheduling when we want to? 05:01
MadcapJake lol the github perl6 syntax highlighter catches my method «is-before» as two keywords seperated by a minus op :P 05:04
autarch skids: what I'm working on has very iittle to do with parallelization 05:05
05:05 parisba_ is now known as parisba 05:06 pierre-vigier joined
autarch it's just an abstraction of testing from "spit out some TAP to stdout" to "send an abstract event describing the thing (Plan, Test, Skip) to a bunch of listeners and let the listeners do what they want (and one of those listeners may be a TAP formatter that prints to stdout)" 05:06
what is possible under this system is to implement an IPC layer so events can be passed from one thread or process to a central monitoring process - so it provides a reasonable toolset for parallelization, and I'd like to add an actual IPC mechanism to the distro 05:07

09:49 bpmedley left
RabidGravy wonders whether it is worth bisecting the above as there have been several opportunities to break it 09:51

RabidGravy I don't suppose anyone knows the commit where the GLR branch got merged? 09:56

sortiz So, when use or import search for an EXPORT sub, they expect only one per UNIT. I'm just speculating. 09:58
RabidGravy yes that is currently the case 09:59
10:00 pierre-vigier left, burnersk joined, pierre-vigier joined
sortiz Make sense, that way we can have many packages (classes, emums, etc.) per compunit, all sharing the same import/export machinery. 10:02

got another puzzle to figure out, if anyone's around
15:00 awwaiid joined
orbus so say I want to loop on polling a channel, and stop as soon as no more values are available 15:02
m: my $c=Channel.new; for 1..3 {$c.send($_)}; while $c.poll -> $x { put $x }
camelia rakudo-moar 770d10: OUTPUT«1␤2␤3␤»
orbus but while $c.poll -> $x actually apparently test the value of $x
m: my $c=Channel.new; for 0..3 {$c.send($_)}; while $c.poll -> $x { put $x } 15:03
camelia ( no output )
orbus if there's a 0 on the channel, the loop ends prematurely
poll returns Nil if it fails to get a value, but I can't figure out a good way to test for that
if I assign the result of poll to a variable and then test it, Nil evaporates on assignment 15:04

orbus that seems to work
thought I tried that before
jnthn You generally don't want to loop on .poll
Because it's busy waiting.
orbus well, not really if I stop and go do something else as soon as I don't get a value back 15:08
jnthn Ah, OK. So there's a bit more to it than your example showed :)
orbus yes - it was a naive example
15:08 brrt joined
orbus also I'm trying to figure out how Nil works 15:08
jnthn If you didn't already know, you can use whenever with a Channel also.
orbus hmmm 15:09
haven't looked at whenever yet
jnthn Nil, when assigned to a Scalar, resets it to its default value
Which is Any for an untyped Scalar.
orbus yeah, I was trying to figure out how to reliably test for that
I guess defined 15:10
or ! defined
i.e. first I tried $x === Nil but that was no good
jnthn with $c.poll -> $x { put $x } # maybe neater
Right, after the assignment the Nil is gone.
orbus as I discovered :)

actually the other day I was trying to implement atomic compare and swap
didn't go so well
and then I tried to make a bounded channel that would block if you tried to put more than $limit elements into it until slots freed up 15:19

MadcapJake ok i guess just the `::` get special priviledges :P 17:40
funrep are there tuples in perl6? 17:41
MadcapJake is there even a good reason to use a `::` in a method/sub decl? I don't see how that would be anything other than confusing :P 17:42
funrep: do you mean like an immutable list? 17:43
funrep yeah kinda, maybe tuples are reduntant immutable lists :) 17:44
ugexe not ::, :. so foo:bar and foo:::bar also work 17:45
MadcapJake well containers are mutable, so `my @tuple = 1, 2, 3;` will allow you to mutate. But `my \tuple = (1, 2, 3) gives you an immutable list 17:46
ugexe: what's the point of being able to do that?
funrep: doc.perl6.org/language/list#Immutability 17:47
ugexe well, whats the point of not? 17:49
MadcapJake because it's confusing, it looks like package syntax but it isn't and you have to use quotes to access it.
17:51 rurban left, rurban joined
MadcapJake you can't even use it on bare names, it has to be nested in a module/class 17:51
ugexe should it not be allowed to be done at all because its confusing for normal use then? 17:54
lucasb IMO, method foo::bar should be a syntax error 17:56
MadcapJake I'm just reading S02 names, and the `::` is a package sigil. If it's used just as a regular character in a sub/method declaration, that is terribly confusing 17:57
not only would you instantly think, "oh that preceding bit is a package" (which it's not) but you'd then try to access it as such and find a strange error that *doesn't* say "to use this method you need to enclose it in quotes" 17:58

abaugher [Tux], thanks for making that META.info change for Text::CSV. panda still complains, so I think it must have it cached already or something, because I can see you changed it. But I commented out that line in panda, so the install proceeds successfully. 18:59
nine abaugher: takes a while for the ecosystem to pick up changes to META files. Then you still need to do panda update to get the changes from the ecosystem 19:00
abaugher nine, yeah, I figured it was something like that. It says "fetching Text::CSV", but clearly it's not fetching a fresh copy of everything from github. No big deal. 19:01

abaugher 'panda update' does eliminate it, so I'll have to keep that in mind, that that updates META.info files. Makes sense, now that I think about it, since those contain info about sources. 19:04

ely-se and not any structure-preserving operation (which includes Promise.then), like in Haskell 19:35
moritz ely-se: in Perl, we care about singular vs. plural
as we do in many human languages, English among them
also, Perl has the philosophy of using a name only for one operation 19:36
and .map is a synchronous operation
MadcapJake moritz: that explains why `.chars` and `.elems` aren't just called `.length`. I've been wondering that!
ely-se "length" on strings is too ambiguous 19:37
mst MadcapJake: after the number of times I've seen people call .length on the wrong sort of object in other languages and get really confused, I -so- like that decision
MadcapJake I definitely like that they are different, but it's one of those go-to methods in JS that you get really used to using 19:38
mst not being able to immediately tell whether you're getting number-of-chars-in-string or number-of-elements-in-array is just sadface making
MadcapJake for sure, but it definitely is a strong JS idiom nonetheless X) 19:41
19:42 marmay_ joined
MadcapJake Definitely something to add to the JS-to-P6 pod when that exists. 19:48
mst oh, I'm aware. also a strong python idiom. but we're still allowed to do better than them :)
masak I guess that decision in JS comes from Java originally
though in Java it's .length() for String and .length for Array 19:49
mst also java wasn't an influence on the JS design process really
MadcapJake masak: lovely xP
masak because brain damage, apparently
mst: oh, I think it was
mst: all the wrapper types were basically lifted directly from Java
mst wrapper types?
masak object types holding methods for native types 19:50
Java has int and Integer
JavaScript has native numbers and Number
MadcapJake JavaScript Origin Story: www.computer.org/csdl/mags/co/2012/...20007.html 19:52
mst ISTR it was primarily based on scheme and self
except m-expressions
MadcapJake Smalltalk, C[++], and LISP apparently 19:53
masak Scheme and Self were the "hidden" influences
Java was the explicit influence, syntax-wise and with some of the semantics
MadcapJake But he was under marketing orders to make it look like Java also 19:54
masak the infix:<+> operator doing both string concat and math -- that decision is from Java. doesn't make as much sense in a loosely typed language, though. :/
mst aha
mst stands corrected
masak Perl was an influence, too. regular expressions.
Modula/Python was another influence, but I forget what for. 19:55
er, Modula/Pascal...
leont regular expressions weren't in Javascript 1.0
masak that rings a bell, yes 19:56
MadcapJake «Eich built a simplified object model that combined structs from the C language, patterns from SmallTalk, and the symmetry between data and code offered by LISP. The Hypercard event model inspired the pattern for adding events to the HTML document. Object-oriented patterns were possible but via runtime semantics with prototypes (as in Self) instead of compiler-supported class syntax (as in Java and C++).» 19:57

AlexDaniel ugexe: not yet 20:53
ugexe: and possibly it will never be so
RabidGravy Cool basically defines an interface that all the builtin simple types share
ugexe yes, it was rhetorical
musiKk RabidGravy: so i only need to require it in a signature if i intend to call one of the many methods or subs defined by Cool? 20:56
don't know if that questions makes sense. i'm well versed in perl5 but super new to perl6. :) 20:58
RabidGravy yeah basically, a (Foo() $a) in a signature is a coercion, if the argument isn't already a Foo then it will try to call the Foo method on it, so specifying Int(Cool) there guaranteed there will be a an Int method on an object that inherits from Cool
so e.g

RabidGravy m: class Foo {}; sub bar(Foo() $a) { say "foo" }; foo("bar"); 20:59

RabidGravy specifying a constraint for the coercion prevents that sort of thing happening (though it may die for other reasons) 21:01
21:01 bpmedley joined
musiKk oh, i just noticed i did not know that "Foo()" is a coercion in the first place. i always thought it has something to do with lists. 21:01
RabidGravy ah
flussence signatures are a weird sub-language
21:02 raiph joined
musiKk i still don't get it completely but you sure helped a lot. 21:04
unfortunately i can't try stuff out right now b/c i did something and now rakudo does nothing but core dump due to "illegal instruction". lol
RabidGravy oops 21:05
masak oh, right. forgot about the Hypercard influence for the event model. MadcapJake++
musiKk psa: don't do "sub rec() { rec() } rec()" :(
lucs Else you will curse! And recurse! 21:06
musiKk it's super cool that rakudo has tail recursion but somehow this filled all my swap in two seconds and now the core dump thing does not go away.
masak musiKk: did you meant tail recursion *optimization*? and are you sure Rakudo has it? 21:07
marmay_ Is there a way to provide a named parameter to a sub just in case it accepts it? I try to pass a parameter $request to a sub that does not take any parameters and I get an error: "Unexpected named parameter 'request' passed in sub"
RabidGravy yes 21:08
21:08 avs_ joined
RabidGravy or for methods that just works 21:08
sjn \o
sjn wonders if there's a JSON formatted list of a the modules at modules.perl6.org somewhere 21:09
RabidGravy m: class F { method bar() { say %_ } }; Foo.new.bar(bumble => "goat");

musiKk masak: now that you ask, i'm not positive anymore due to the problems i mentioned. i'll reboot and see if that fixes something. otherwise it's back to compiling rakudo. 21:10

ely-se can I do exec without fork? 21:17
RabidGravy marmay_, but for subroutines it doesn't have a defaiult '*%_' in the signature so you would have to specify it explicitly 21:18
where '*%_' means any other named parameters that haven't been specified
21:18 [dpk] joined 21:19 dpk left
RabidGravy you can't make someone else's sub behave like it though 21:19

yurivish_ hi everyone! quick question – is docs.parrot.org/parrot/latest/html/...s.pod.html an accurate description of how rakudo's current string implementation works, or is Parrot's approach different? 22:28
I'm interested specifically in the way unicode is handled. The Julia programming language is currently working out an improved approach towards string and character handling, and I pointed them towards Perl 6's approach to use as possible inspiration: github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/14383 22:29
22:30 yurivish_ left
flussence that sounds vaguely like how MoarVM implements it, yes 22:31
geekosaur I think that support was contributed to them back when rakudo-parrot development was active? 22:33

geekosaur I vaguely recall some of it got rethought afterward though 22:33

azawawi just woke up :) 23:35
Skarsnik work on my pg array! 23:36
23:37 telex left 23:38 telex joined

azawawi is reading doc.perl6.org/language/modules#EXPORT
23:40 Sgeo joined 23:44 bowtie left 23:48 bowtie joined, kid51 joined
azawawi so what's the advantage of versioning a module if panda/zef is not going to install the newer version? 23:49
Skarsnik it's look corporate? 23:50
ni idea
azawawi :) 23:51
orbus maybe it eventually will 23:52
or panda will be replaced with something that does handle versions - cpan6 or whatever 23:53
not sure what the plan is, but I assume versioning will be useful at some point 23:54
azawawi oh well, time will only tell :)
orbus is working on a module right now 23:55
suppose I'd better version it
actually 23:57
here's a question
Skarsnik I think the plan is to wait for a tool that handle version for you, aka fix a github release and upload on cpan x)
orbus yeah, I'm assuming there will be either cpan integration or cpan6 at some point
23:57 firstdayonthejob left
orbus so here's a question 23:58
I'm writing a class
that inherits from another class
the parent class has a method foo
and I'm adding a method in my class called bar
which I want to do some stuff and then call back to foo in the parent class 23:59
in java I guess that would just be like super.foo
so far the only way I see to do it in perl6 is with WALK
which works but is a bit cumbersome
wondering if there's any easier way
