Rename `.parse-names` to `.uniparse`

The original name existed only as a 6.d proposal and it was decided to align its name with other `uni*` routines for actual 6.d. The
  `.parse-names` method continues to exist in Rakudo impl. It'll
issue deprecation warning in 6.d and will be removed in 6.e

titsuki_ hi #perl6. I have a question. 01:22
Are there any good examples or modules for handling wikipedia recent change api( www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Recent_...ges_stream )?

tyil: rewriting the very end right now, but here:
tyil [Coke]: the first sentence after Tweaking objects at creation has a comma which makes the sentence read a little weird to me 02:17
tyil [Coke]: "is that there is B implicit locking on shared variables", is that B intentional? 02:18

synopsebot Link: doc.perl6.org/type/DateTime
Zoffix Ntive English speakers: "Negative offsets are allowed, though L<earlier> is more idiomatic for that." <-- should that "though" be "although"? 02:20
That's from the DateTime.later and DateTime.earlier docs
*Native
[Coke] ... locking on shared variable?
I think you're not reading mine.
mine is gist.github.com/coke/692ab4dd8d758...3afe235882 02:21
... Although I've written this to end with "I didn't finish because hard" (but still had an advent post out of it)... now I'm going to have to see if I can get further. :| 02:22
geekosaur Zoffix, technically 'although' is correct; colloquially, 'though' is often used
so it's a question of how formal/high-falutin' you want the docs to sound :p 02:23
Zoffix thanks :) 02:24
I'll leave it be
tyil [Coke]: "If you want get a report of what has been", missing a "to" in that sentence?
oh
OH
sorry
I thought you did the one that just went live
Zoffix it's lizmat's 02:25
tyil this is for lizmat, no
[Coke]: I dont have an account to the perl 6 advent blog, so I cant proofread yours :(
lizmat: check some of the comments I just left for [Coke], since it was secretly your post all along
Zoffix tyil: <[Coke]> mine is gist.github.com/coke/692ab4dd8d758...3afe235882 02:28
tyil yeah
just found it in between the other text
[Coke]: enthusiasm is misspelled 02:29
[Coke] Updated with a closer. 02:30
tyil: fixed 02:31
tyil "under two minutes; A step back", the a should be lowercase here I believe
[Coke] I haven't pushed the repo yet; if I don't have to go until the 24th, then I will take the opporunity to clean it up.
tyil or the ; should be made a .
[Coke] tyil: fixed. 02:32
(added the main lib file to the secret gist for folks to poke at.) 02:33
Zoffix: thanks for covering for me; I had mentioned earlier (perhaps elsewhere) that I was aiming for midnight local time; I'm happy for the extra 2 days, though, maybe I can finish the damn module. :| 02:34
Zoffix Ah. I missed that :) 02:35
[Coke] it's all good.
tyil "private methods (noted with ", shouldn't this be "denoted with"?
geekosaur it's liek the 'though'/'although'; I mentioned earlier 02:36
tyil "so I added a gist method (which is called when an object is output with say.", missing a ) here 02:37
tyil and the code block below that has a trailing ', which doesn't look correct to me 02:37

geekosaur (because perl 5 programmers would expect it to default to $_)
TreyHarris thanks 03:48
Zoffix That looks a bug to me. Filed as R#1327 03:57
synopsebot R#1327 [open]: github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/1327 `say` in some case throws malformed arg instead of P5ism error
Zoffix TreyHarris: these are basically us trying to spot usage of stuff that's very likely wrong because the user meant something else (like printing $_, like it happens in Perl 5). These are the routines we watch for. the "1" after name means it's a Perl-5-ism and "2" after the name means it's a Perl-6-ism: 03:59
github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/1f99...3440-L3446
Zoffix drops to bed 04:01
geekosaur yes, I was implying as much. the warning was removed but nobody implemented the underlying behavior in place of the warning, basically 04:03
since it was considered 'nonsensical' the code just bailed in that case. but without he warning it should at least do something nicer than that error 04:04

To initialize a private attribute via the `new` method, adding that attribute to the TWEAK submethod signature will initialize it without interfering with other attributes' initialization. It is a better practice than using BUILD:

Use non breaking spaces.

As reported by zoffixznet <github.com/perl6/doc/issues/1719> it is better to use non-breaking spaces when dealing with Perl 5|6 to ensure the version number does not wrapped onto a new line.

otokan Hi, how can access object's attribute which name I have in a variable? 11:13
scimon Well the accessor is a method. 11:13
So you should be able to do my $method = $object.find-name($variable); Then $object.$method. 11:14
timotimo no need to do it like that 11:15
you can also $object."$variable"() 11:16
scimon .... Ooooo 11:17
timotimo m: class Test { has $.a; has $.b }; my $object = Test.new(a => 42, b => 23); for ^10 { my $which-to-use = ("a", "b").pick; say $object."$which-to-use"() }

timotimo that second version lets you grab the method object from the class and invoke it on the object
fluca1978 class Foo{ has Int $.x }
my $obj = Foo.new( x => 10 );
my $method = 'x';
$obj."$method"().say;
nine moritz: yes, somehow the packages don't make it back onto the VM's bridge 11:19

Zoffix piojo: oh, I guess that ain't it. No idea. lizmat++ worked a lot on shaped arrays. She'd know more about this. 11:49
Zoffix piojo: RE TWEAK stuff. Dunno if it's common enough to have a *private* attribute be semi-public by having it linked to public instantiation interface like that. But if there's no example of using TWEAK to bind to an attribute directly in the signature, then sure that could be added. 11:54

clarkema Hi all. I've revisiting some advent of code challenges from earlier this month to see if I can improve my solutions, and am currently looking at day 05. This is a tight loop jumping around an array based on the value of the contents until you jump beyond the bounds of the array after about 25 million iterations. 16:22
clarkema I've played with different approaches, bringing the runtime down from about 1 minute 30 to around 45 seconds, but I'm wondering whether I'm missing any optimizations 16:23
Current state is at gist.github.com/clarkema/ba2e80c22...c83777cda3 is there anything I can do at the 'user' level to make this run faster?
clarkema (As a couple of points of comparison, a rough Python 3 transliteration completes in about 17.5 seconds. Reasonably optimized Common Lisp (using SBCL) runs in 0.3 seconds from the REPL) 16:27
TEttinger clarkema: from what I understand SBCL does more than just reasonable optimizations :) 16:36
clarkema TEttinger: yeah, it's pretty speedy if you give it the right hints 16:37
TEttinger that's what my CL-using friends tell me... then my benchmarks can't back up the claim that it's as fast as C, though it is fairly good
SBCL is a compiler though 16:38
TEttinger oh, from the REPL you said? 16:38
I think SBCL has some unusual case for how the REPL works alongside their compiler 16:39
TEttinger I mean, perl 6 isn't really a fast language for tight loop stuff, it seems optimized for programmer time over CPU time 16:40
that looks like very clear code though 16:43
clarkema SBCL is still compiled from the REPL -- the difference is that I'm not paying compilation / VM-startup overhead in that timing, whereas I am with Python and P6
Zoffix clarkema: got any sample input for that code? 16:50
clarkema Zoffix: Sure: gist.github.com/clarkema/ba2e80c22...c83777cda3 16:52
(updated the same gist)
Zoffix m: say 63/42 17:00
evalable6 1.5
Zoffix clarkema: this makes it ~1.5x faster. I these these are all the "street legal" optimizations I can think of: gist.github.com/zoffixznet/7a66bbb...03c42205c5 17:01
Zoffix tries nqp version
clarkema oh, interesting. I've just been looking through profile output and seen that the postcircumfix [] was taking about 33% of execution time, so tried binding @instructions[$index] 17:02
which gets me down to 23 sec
clarkema what's the theory behind AT-POS being faster? 17:04
Zoffix m: &postcircumfix:<[ ]>.candidates.elems.say
evalable6 WARNINGS for /tmp/WzSwM4fumi:
65
Useless use of constant value [ ] in sink context (lines 1, 1)
Zoffix 65 candidates. Perhaps they don't get cached or whatever. By using .AT-POS you go directly to where [] would get you to 17:05
clarkema ah, so you're skipping the indirection / flexibility
makes sense
awesome 17:06
If I steal that and your change to prefix increment / decrement and merge with binding, we're beating python 17:07
gist.github.com/clarkema/9cf51e4a5...b4a8bb1151
15.2 sec
Zoffix so you *can* bind it like that. Weird, I tried that too, but it gave me some error 17:10
Ah, wait no, it gave wrong result then. Gave 25238376 instead of 25347697 17:11
You sure 15.2 sec version gives right result? :)
holy shit. nqp version is 0m3.019s
clarkema yup, result is correct -- still matching the python 17:12
Zoffix makes changes file slurpage to nqp too to squeeze everything
clarkema I'm staggered that changing $index += $jump into $index = $index + $jump saves so much 17:16
You'd think they'd be equivalent, but very definitely not 17:17
Zoffix bah, I give up. stuck with unboxing strings to ints and I don't think file hll slurping costs a lot in this case. 17:20
Here, 3.027s version: gist.github.com/zoffixznet/74df6fb...fb5331ee84
clarkema that has a decidedly lisp-y look to it 17:21
Zoffix: is it possible to, for example, just write the inner portion of a loop in NQP in the middle of a larger perl module? 17:23
Zoffix Filed it as R#1328 in case we can bring HLL version closer to nqp's speeds 17:24
synopsebot R#1328 [open]: github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/1328 [perf] [PERF] Large diff between HLL and nqp performance in code example
Zoffix clarkema: yeah, but there's no user support for nqp. The way it works can be changed at any time without notice, breaking your module. 17:25
clarkema fair enough
super interesting though, thanks :)
digging around and performance golfing is quite fun 17:26
AlexDaniel xD street legal optimizations 17:29
Zoffix Looking at ASTs, looks like $index += $jump is slower than $index = $index + $jump is 'cause it misses rewrite of &infix:<+> to nqp::add_i 17:30
Zoffix Filed as R#1329 17:33
synopsebot R#1329 [open]: github.com/rakudo/rakudo/issues/1329 [perf] my int $x; ( $x += 42 is slower than $x = $x + 42)

AlexDaniel oh wow, did flyspell-mode just highlight “the the” as an error? ♥♥♥ 22:40
timotimo AlexDaniel: you'll be our advent author for the evening? :) 22:43
AlexDaniel Yeah. Whether you'll like it or not is a different question though :P 22:44
