geekosaur => autoquotes the left side on the assumption that it wants to be a string key, but not the right 01:39
comborico1611 Hmm.
geekosaur if you want quoting of both, use a list initializer with <> or <<>> quoting
m: my %test = <one uno two dos>; say %test<two> 01:40
camelia dos
comborico1611 What about with quoting?
geekosaur m: my %test = «one "uno una" two dos»; say %test<one> 01:41
camelia uno una
geekosaur although I'm not sure what you're asking tbh
comborico1611 Weird. I just didn't know what quoting was. I don't think it is discussed in the book I'm reading. 01:44
I'll check it out on docs.
geekosaur the docs aren't as easy to understand as they ought to be, when it comes to quoting. you have to search for « » (or the long form << >>, it's hidden under qqww 01:46

comborico1611 What are the braces denoting that the parens aren't? { } Is more subscripty 02:20

geekosaur if you use parens, it's read as a function call instead of a quote
comborico1611 I see. 02:21

comborico1611 What about with <> instead of braces?
geekosaur whoops
that would also work
comborico1611 Brackets? 02:22
I would type, but I'm on my phone.
geekosaur the names used for things vary by region, sadly. I use () = parens, [] = brackets. {} = braces
comborico1611 I use the same.
geekosaur but lots of places do that differently
02:24 mr-foobar left
geekosaur anyway parentheses are special because anything can be used as a function with them. other paired brackets, or repeated non-paired things (e.g. qqww|foo bar| or even qqww,foo bar,) can be used with it 02:25

geekosaur 13 is ENOENT. what components of that path exist and what are their permissions? 03:53

steeznson hello all! I am looking for a project idea using regular expressions that I can use to explore grammars in perl 6. I've been thinking about a crossword clue solver but I'd love to hear some suggestions.
wander parser of a subset of C(or any other language) 12:19
12:19 ChoHag joined
jast convert one syntax to another 12:19
wander that is it 12:20
jast e.g. JSON to XML, something like that
steeznson ah these are good thanks
are the official docs still the best reference point for grammars? 12:21
jast another one, write something that scrapes and parses websites and extracts information from them. of course there are already libraries to do that, but it's a nice and not all too simple thing to play with
wander by the way, our docs of grammar is a little lack, if having question, welcome to here
no :(
steeznson ah well thanks for the ideas and advice, i'll be back if I get stuck.
wander many, many traps/features are not documented yet 12:22
jast well, I've written stuff involving grammars based on the docs, so I'd say it's possible at least :)

wander This may be the second worst trap when I was building a miniC parser. 12:29
nine steeznson: you could write a parser for some configuration file format. Could then be used as basis for a configuration tool. I've done this e.g. for Apache and nginx config files and used it for a converter from Apache to nginx. 12:30
12:32 holyghost2 joined
steeznson that's a nice idea, could actually save me a lot of time with nginx in the future 12:33
wander rules, which auto-enable :sigspace, maybe causes confusing result too 12:34
only using rules in trivial case would help 12:35
other cases use `token` to make sure it does what you want
p6's grammar(github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/mast...ammar.nqp) uses much more tokens than rules 12:38

06:54Z <wander> [Coke]: what do you mean saying "=begin Html doesn't emit raw HTML"? Does it mean that every thing inside Html block should be raw Html code?
06:57Z <wander> [Coke]: if so, then what we should do is remove pod6 code inside Html block of homepage. otherwise, if you mean after parse the code inside, Html block should not add redundant <p> tag, then we can hardcode to remove it, because extra <p></p> is always at both ends of returning Str

[Coke] but in general, I find dev tools on chrome invaluable for something like this; showing me what resources are going into making the page, and perhaps you can write something to scrape what they're doing. But I would suggest that if you're doing this for a job, that you talk to the website providing the data - they might have an API or some other way for you to get the data you're looking for. 13:35

perlpilot census: there's 0 hits for ALS? That's strange :)
census no not ALS
perlpilot 0 hits for a different one
207 hits for ALS
i have an idea 14:28
maybe i can do something like this: www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results...amp;fund=3
so i search for 2 diseases no matter what. and just subtract out the results of ALS each time
perlpilot census: or ... check the result of the get and only spurt if you don't get a 404 (or, better, only spurt if you get a 2xx) 14:30
census perlpilot how would i do that?
perlpilot according to the docs, get returns Failure if the request fails or doesn't return a 2xx HTTP code. So ... check for Failure. 14:32
(or non-Failure really :-)

comborico1611 Oh. 14:35
census perlpilot where are you reading this exactly at github.com/zoffixznet/perl6-WWW ? 14:36
perlpilot census: scroll down to where it says "EXPORTED ROUTINES". There's an example for get and the paragraph immediately following says "Returns Failure if request fails or does not return a successful HTTP code." 14:43
census perlpilot where is that stored? 14:44
perlpilot census: color me confused now. What do you mean "stored"?
14:44 kaare_ joined
perlpilot census: you either get back a Str or a Failure. It's up to you to check and decide what to do 14:45
census perlpilot i don't really understand how this code would go down. is there a variable to which the 'failure' string is stored?
cause then i'll write an if statement that's something like if (x=='failure') results = 0; else { }
perlpilot ah ... It's not a string. It's a Failure *type*. So, you might say something like my $result = get "..."; if $result.isa(Failure) { ... } else { ... } 14:47
comborico1611 What is a group of s 14:48

A group of characters contained in a variable.
moritz an array?
comborico1611 Hmm. Let me look at the code some more and see if an array was declared.. 14:51
perlpilot .tell Zoffix you might want to include a couple of sad-path examples in WWW
yoleaux perlpilot: I'll pass your message to Zoffix.
comborico1611 I don't see an array. Do hashes automatically create arrays?
moritz there's autovivification 14:52
comborico1611 The situation is where there are multiple values for a single key.
moritz m: my %h; %h<a>.push: 'x'; say %h.perl
camelia {:a($["x"])}
comborico1611 lol. That sounds like a Catholic term.
moritz m: my %h; %h<a><b> = 'x'; say %h.perl; # autovivifies a second-level hash 14:54
camelia {:a(${:b("x")})}
census perlpilot thanks! that is totally working for the 0 cases of 404 errors; however, now i'm no longer getting correct answers for the ones that were previously correct 14:56

timotimo perhaps it's there to allow the ORM itself to more easily make sense of the results that are coming back? 18:17
18:18 Exodist left
timotimo if you have a raw sql string it'd have to parse the sql itself to find out what it's doing, if you build the query with methods or whatever the orm will know first-hand and can generate the sql at the same time 18:18
i haven't used orms much, though. i think the only orms i've tried were django's own one and sqlalchemy - though django has sqlalchemy now, i believe? 18:19

hahainternet [Coke]: they are often useful, i can give you many examples if you care for them 18:26
mspo eh in php world I encounter tons of ad-hoc sql based on partial strings 18:28
and it's quite some spaghetti
ilmari finds DBIx::Class helpful when dealing with ~600 tables and ~1k foreign key relationships across ~20 schemas
several of those being compound foreign keys
hahainternet yes dbic is quite nice
ilmari and some of the schema not being terribly well designed
hahainternet django's ORM is acceptable also
i wrote a translation layer from that to golang
in order to get performance
having the metadata about your schema is valuable 18:29

[Coke] hahainternet: I get that some people find it useful; probably don't bother giving me an example (no time to dig into that now) 18:42
(but if you have one ready, sure.) 18:43
hahainternet [Coke]: i don't have one to hand, but it really isn't 'some people'
it is just a way of encoding the metadata about your structure
if you want to operate on anything indirectly in SQL, you will need something storing this metadata

Guest71897 I'm a Ubuntu user and I'm interested in learning Perl6 21:14
However, I can get Rakudo to install 21:15
Could anyone help me with this?
cannot*
El_Che Hi Guest71897, you can have a look at resources at: perl6.org/resources/
there are some books recomendations there
some of the authors are here :) 21:16
Guest71897 Thanks
El_Che Guest71897: if you're running Ubuntu 17.10, the rakudo version if fine
if something older, have a look here: github.com/nxadm/rakudo-pkg 21:17
if -> is
Guest71897 I'm using 16.04, and I downloaded the 2017.07 release from that repo.
However, I'm not really sure on what to do next
El_Che sudo dpkg -i *.deb 21:18
that will install rakudo in /opt/rakudo-pkg/bin 21:19
the instructions to change the path are in that page (I am the author of that page)
got to go, now. bbl 21:20
stick around people come and go all the time here

sena_kun eeeeh. 22:43
HoboWithAShotgun that*s better: subset UnitArray of Array where not *.grep({ !.isa("Units::Unit") });
sena_kun ah, ok, I've failed. :/
HoboWithAShotgun not an array of int. that's easy. an array of things that are subclasses of X
here X being Units::Unit 22:44
sena_kun I am assuming I should be able to replace Int with Units::Unit, to be honest.
HoboWithAShotgun that works as the array contains Units::Unit Objects 22:45
sena_kun ugh.
HoboWithAShotgun but it fails when it contains say, Units::Voltage objects

sena_kun well, sorry I couldn't help much then. 22:45

AlexDaniel well, you can still send a pigeon with .tell and hope for the best :)
(although email is probably a better choice in this case)
timotimo if you care about performance, don't isa with a string, HoboWithAShotgun 23:12
you can actually directly .grep(Units::Unit)
because grep uses smartmatch to do its thing
HoboWithAShotgun that's useful. ty 23:13
timotimo two or three years ago i was looking at why some program wasn't performing well, it was because of an isa + string being crazy slow
m: say (1 xx 1000).grep(Rat); say now - INIT now 23:14
camelia ()
0.00517439
timotimo m: say (1 xx 1000).grep(*.isa(Rat)); say now - INIT now
camelia ()
0.0074191
timotimo m: say (1 xx 1000).grep(*.isa("Rat")); say now - INIT now
camelia ()
0.0306595
timotimo still a very noticable difference
especially with a non-match it has to go through the whole mro, of course
it's likely a bit better if the type matches directly, let's see 23:15
m: say +(1 xx 1000).grep(*.isa("Int")); say now - INIT now
camelia 1000
0.0285461
timotimo m: say +(1 xx 1000).grep(*.isa(Int)); say now - INIT now
camelia 1000
0.0067902
timotimo m: say +(1 xx 1000).grep(Int); say now - INIT now
camelia 1000
0.00549737
timotimo that's more than i expected 23:16
23:17 lostinfog left
HoboWithAShotgun i now have subset UA of List where { $_.grep(Units::Unit).elems == $_.elems }; 23:19
timotimo probably faster than looking for none(Units::Unit) and seeing if that's positive 23:20
perhaps something with .first and the negation would be better? not sure if the grep there uses a count-only thing
if you have negation and check for booleanness, it only has to pull a single value, which means if there's a wrong value somewhere near the beginning it'll immediately reject 23:21
