perlawhirl how can i round down to a unit? ... 00:40
m: 3650.round(1000) # i want 3000
camelia ( no output )
perlawhirl m: say 3650.round(1000) # i want 3000
camelia rakudo-moar 4a0ba7: OUTPUT«4000␤»
perlawhirl i guess i could... 00:41
00:41 lichtkind left
perlawhirl m: say (3650 / 1000).floor * 1000 00:41
camelia rakudo-moar 4a0ba7: OUTPUT«3000␤»
geekosaur subtract 1000 (or 100 * signum if you need negative numbers) then round to 1000? 00:42
er 1000 * .signum
AlexDaniel perlawhirl: so .floor should accept a unit just like .round does? This makes sense 00:43
geekosaur actually I meant 500 not 1000 00:44
wheee
geekosaur is probably too tired for this kind of thing
perlawhirl AlexDaniel: it does not :( it was the first thing i tried
geekosaur right, they're taking it as a proposal
it was the first thing I thought of and checked too :p 00:45
00:46 petercommand left, petercommand joined
perlawhirl geekosaur: the minus 500 thing makes more sense then my divisin/multiplication dance... thanks 00:46
geekosaur bit of a rabbit hole though, do you want round-to-nearest, round-down, round-up, round-to-zero[, round-to-nearest-infinity]?
perlawhirl i don't need negatives 00:47
well... maybe just some :down and :up attribute... eg: 3650.round(1000, :down) 00:48
that's nice without being too obtrusive
because it's named, it also reads niceey as 3650.round(:down, 1000) 00:49

04:05 skids left
TEttinger yep! perl 6 has many features that are rare, and it's inspiring to see how many new things are here. I may make the effort to learn p6 fully when performance is better 04:06
awwaiid I'm still trying to learn it minimally :) . I'm still trying to figure out the axioms.
Hotkeys What are dependent types in perl 6 04:28
is that the 'where' pattern

awwaiid ya 04:51
sjn TEttinger: If I were you, I'd start learning Perl 6 now, and when you're comfortable with it (after enough coding) chances are that much of the performance you're looking for now will be there :) 04:57
TEttinger: and if it's not, or you find some things are less performant than you'd like, while you're learning and experimenting, then you'd be giving useful feedback here about what would be useful to make faster :D 04:58
TEttinger mostly I have stuff people depend on me for now, and that's currently java code. I'd like to rewrite another version of this game lib someday, but I doubt that would be a good use for perl 6 05:00
sjn sure
in the meantime, play around, learn the different bits of it :)

perlawhirl it's still not working for me. my sender and recever are different machines. sender is p5. i'll keep poking at it and see what... 06:27
oh
it works for you? which version of rakudo?
Timbus This is Rakudo version 2016.02-72-g50a4df3 built on MoarVM version 2016.02
perlawhirl This is Rakudo version 2016.02 built on MoarVM version 2016.02
Timbus so, at most a few weeks there. should be working then =/ 06:28
how bout a localhost test 06:29
perlawhirl yeah, i'll keep poking and prodding
06:29 araujo left
perlawhirl ideally i need it working from a separate machine, and sender is one of our old solaris boxes i do not have admin on, so i need it to work with p5 sender 06:30
Timbus that's fair
but if it works locally but not over a host, there might be more involved...
perlawhirl thanks Timbus, good point... i will try a local p5->p6 implementaion first and see if i can get that working 06:31
gotta go now... feel free to provide extra help if you want! :D i'll check the logs later

masak _nadim: I don't have the whole story, but... private methods are actually not late-bound. in that sense, they are more like subs than like methods. 08:45
_nadim: naively one would think that the solution would then look like multisubs. but I don't know if it's that easy.
RabidGravy yeah, I've actually done something using multi subs that gives the effect of private multi methods, can't remember what it is in though 08:50
masak seems to me you could emulate it easily by turning `multi method !foo($x, $y)` into `multi sub foo($self, $x, $y)` 08:51
_nadim: would that be an option for you?
moritz the difference is that you can't declare trusts, and that you don't get access to it when augmenting the class
masak troo 08:52
there's probably a workaround for the trusts thing, too (using composition, say) -- but it'd be slightly more involved
moritz you could always have method !wrapper(|c) { callthesub(|c) } 08:53
RabidGravy oh yeah there are reasons they would be good things but there are ways of working round the common case so I'm relaxed about it

ummm... how do i turn a unicode codepoint into a char?
in perl
tweakism chr() ? 13:32
perlawhirl umm... what format should the code point be in 13:33
tweakism a number.
nine is on a train :)
perlawhirl lets use pi as an example... how would one turn 03C0 into the pi symbol
m: say chr(03C0); say chr('03C0') 13:34

hoelzro is that an error message we can improve? The initial approach I can think of is naïve and would probably considerably slow down the compiler, which is even LTA than the error message

kaare_ How would you define a native call where the argument is a pointer to "a fixed size buffer"? 18:14
arnsholt CArray[int8], or similar 18:17
kaare_ OK? But the buffer size is system defined, I think. 18:19
timotimo CPointer would also do it, and you can always NativeCast. though if the buffer is supposedly a "buffer of bytes", CArray[int8] is likely a better choice
kaare_ OK, I'll try. Thankx 18:20
timotimo you have to get the size of the buffer somehow in any case
the C ABI doesn't have anything standardized for sized buffers

DrForr Something recently (haven't updated rakudobrew for a few days) just sent performance through the floor. 19:47
19:48 hacst joined
[Coke] DrForr: you going to bisect? 19:48
And/Or do you have a small benchmark that shows it?
and how are you running rakudobrew? 19:49
DrForr No, because I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to run a single test. 19:50
[Coke] What are you seeing a performance problem on? 19:51
DrForr 'use Test' pretty much kills the VM. I'll completely delete .rakudobrew and reinstall. 19:54
80% drive usage, load average hit about 5 when trying to run a test script.. 19:55
[Coke] so just perl6 -e 'use Test;' is causing you trouble? 19:56
(first run, or future runs?)
"make test" which uses Test, seems like it's about the same. (fast on everythign but nativecall) 19:57
DrForr It could be something odd in Crust, but its internal tests seemed to rn, I didn't take notice of the actual time because I don't expect much of VM performance.
[Coke] you said VM - you have a small CPU/mem limit on the VM, OOC? 19:58
DrForr 2GiB, I haven't changed the setup in about 6 months, so that shouldn't be a factor.
Running internally on MoarVM, I just blew away .rakudobrew and recloned. 20:00

donaldh doc.perl6.org/language/control#next
RabidGravy the whenever block is just a fancy tap some default done/quit things not a loop 22:24
timotimo but it is very much like a loop
dalek c: 77a45e6 | coke++ | doc/Language/control.pod:
add whitespace to code sample
perlpilot a whenever block is quite like a loop that iterates the supply.
timotimo and you can already "last" inside a whatever loop to close your tap on the supply
so why wouldn't it allow to skip the rest of the current iteration with "next"? 22:25
for what it's worth, a "for" loop is just a map call, not a loop.
RabidGravy if that makes sense to you
timotimo it absolutely makes sense to me
perlpilot That's pretty much how we're going to explain it to people so ... ;) 22:27
RabidGravy y'see it doesn't make sense to me 22:29
perlpilot for iterates things that come from a list; whenever iterates things that come from a supply. What doesn't make sense? 22:35
