So I have a class A. Under special conditions, A.new should return a class B is A. How do I define them so that they work? A can’t compile because B hasn’t been defined, but I can’t stub B is A { … } because A hasn’t been declared. But if I declare A as a stub, then B’s stub fails because it requires a composed class. 02:18
errr ignore all that I didn’t mean to send anything until I tried a few other things 02:19
02:20 zachk left
guifa (Answer stub role A, stub class A-generic does A, stub class B does A, then actually define A with a new method that decides which type to return, and then define classes A-generic and B that do A) 02:23

vrurg guifa: Not sure if got your problem correctly, but perhaps dynamic obtainting of a type with ::('B') could work for you. In this case the class would be resolved at run time. 02:39
Then stubbing should be ok.
guifa ooh! I didn’t think about that 02:40
I finally got it to work but I quite rather like that solution because it’s not quite as messy. I’m sure it’s smidgen slower but for what i’m doing that overhead isn’t bad
vrurg You could speed things up by pre-caching the resolved type somewhere – in a class variable, for example. 02:42
guifa vrurg++ 02:43
vrurg m: class C { }; my \CC = C; my $a = CC.new; say $a.WHAT 02:44
camelia (C)
guifa I just tried that and it worked — with much cleaner code that all the stubbed stuff
vrurg I know. Looks like I went through similar issue once. Though I needed a typecheck – a child to validate its parent. 02:45
But otherwise it's same kind cyclic class dependency which could only be resolved with a loose link. 02:46
guifa oh hey, you can apparently throw it in a CHECK phaser. 02:48
So it’s basically as close to compile time as possible 02:49
Heck, I’d pretty much just call that compile time.
$foo = (CHECK ::(‘bar’)).new: @xyz 02:50

discord6 <kawaii> AlexDaniel: here we go, pushed some code: github.com/kawaii/pd-keiken/blob/m...ken.p6#L37 my issue is that the grant-level-roles routine seems to execute before grant-experience has even finished, which I did not think possible 20:24
<kawaii> and then I end up with output like this bliantehshark gained 18 experience points! bliantehshark needs level NaN 5 is role ID 534153805441269761 10 is role ID 534153833404956683
<kawaii> it takes the NaN and decides to just assign the user ALL of the roles in the hash 20:25

discord6 <kawaii> i'm correct in thinking these specific routines of my code are entirely synchronous right? there shouldn't be room for a race condition yet there it is 20:37

timotimo vrurg: does -Mfatal work?
vrurg timotimo: No. 20:38
AlexDaniel kawaii: yes, you are correct, that's the point of `react` block
timotimo d'oh
discord6 <kawaii> AlexDaniel: the next there means to not proceed to the rest of the code

AlexDaniel kawaii: does `next` work with whenevers? 20:39
vrurg timotimo: it's a tricky case. I'm trying to fix subsets and the warning comes from some core location.
I just can't find that location...
timotimo you can catch the warning and print a backtrace 20:40
m: sub check-it-out { CONTROL { Backtrace.new.full.say }; Str + Int }; check-it-out

discord6 <kawaii> AlexDaniel: it seems to be doing what it is supposed to, if a message is prefixed with ! it is caught by the commands unit module and then other logic executes 20:41
vrurg timotimo: Doesn't work either. I'm working with S02-types/subset.t from specs and it's the only plave where I can install the CONTROL. but it didn't help. 20:42
vrurg is gonna bisect with debug prints now.
AlexDaniel kawaii: interesting… I don't think that is documented…
I also don't think that it works right 20:43
let me double check…
discord6 <kawaii> @altreus™ told me about it, he might know more than I do :]
AlexDaniel oh, it works, yeah 20:44
timotimo vrurg: you can try the debugserver! \o/
vrurg timotimo: CLI debugging? My all-time nightmare. 20:45
timotimo if you have Comma, you can do it with a gui
AlexDaniel so if you put `next` in a subroutine, it will either next a loop or next a whenever depending on where you call it xD
timotimo tbh the CLI of the debugserver client is ... really quite not so great
AlexDaniel jnthn: ↑ there's no way that could be a good idea, right? 20:46
timotimo but a whenever is a loop
discord6 <altreus™> perl5 warns you that you're nexting a loop that you're dynamically but not lexically in 20:47
timotimo oh, it does?
discord6 <altreus™> shouldn't use next in a subroutine because subroutines can be run from without a loop
<altreus™> It actually says exiting subroutine via next but it's the same set of circumstances 20:48
timotimo we don't have checked exceptions :P
discord6 <altreus™> ok back to recording
AlexDaniel m: sub foo() { next }; foo
camelia ===SORRY!===
next without loop construct
AlexDaniel well, what a shitty error message :)
discord6 <altreus™> @kawaii can haltingly explain things
AlexDaniel m: sub foo() { last }; foo
camelia ===SORRY!===
last without loop construct
timotimo that's a compile time error
i thought it would work out fine 20:49
i suppose it has to be inside a loop lexically
AlexDaniel timotimo: except that it's not

AlexDaniel but you don't need Comma for that 20:53
or am I missing something?
timotimo you do not
it just gives you a gui
AlexDaniel I remember debugging things successfully just using the command line
not the most convenient process, I admit, but it does work. Kinda wish somebody integrates it into emacs perl6-mode eventually

21:42 dct left 21:45 zacts joined
AlexDaniel kawaii: let me know if you figure it out 21:46
it's likely an issue in your logic somewhere, not a problem in rakudo
but who knows
discord6 <kawaii> AlexDaniel: well, I'm now working on making my code safer to these NaN issues, I have a problem where both NaN || 0; and NaN // 0; return NaN and not the 0 I want though. :] 21:55
<kawaii> m: NaN || 0; 21:56
AlexDaniel m: say NaN || 0
camelia NaN
AlexDaniel m: say NaN.isNaN ?? 42 !! 0
camelia 42
discord6 <Rogue> NaN is truthy so it will do that
AlexDaniel m: my $x = NaN; say $x.isNaN ?? 42 !! $x
camelia 42
AlexDaniel m: my $x = 50; say $x.isNaN ?? 42 !! $x
camelia 50
AlexDaniel yeah you have to use isNaN
discord6 <Rogue> me no likey this: 21:57
<Rogue> m: say NaN == NaN
<Rogue> oh, the bot doesn't work with the bridge, right
<Rogue> anyway NaN != NaN but NaN === NaN 21:58
<kawaii> so something like if @xp[0] == NaN { return 0; }?
21:58 Ptolemarch joined 21:59 epony left
AlexDaniel m: say NaN == NaN 22:01
camelia False
AlexDaniel m: say NaN === NaN
camelia True
discord6 <Rogue> That rubs me very wrongly 22:03
AlexDaniel Rogue: why? 22:06
“Value identity operator.”
seems to be identical to me
discord6 <Rogue> == is the numeric equality operator, and NaN is a number in a sense (NaN ~~ Numeric, after all) 22:08
<Rogue> NaN == NaN ought to be true, and I frankly can't fathom what oddity is amking it false
<kawaii> return @xp[0] unless @xp[0].isNaN { return 0 }; pointer on where I'm going wrong here?
<Rogue> you can't have a block after an unless like that 22:09
<kawaii> I've used blocks after unless in the past though 🤔 is this somehow different? 22:10
MasterDuke Rogue: it's like nil in SQL. you can't do `where foo == null`, you have to do `where foo is null`
discord6 <Rogue> Are you against the ternary for any reason? Could do `return @xp[0].isNaN ?? @xp[0] !! 0;``
<kawaii> @Rogue first time I've come across it just now, however it still returns NaN apparently Directive d not applicable for type Num 22:13
<Rogue> Oh, oops, it should be the other way round
<Rogue> ... ?? 0 !! @xp[0] 22:14

masak Rogue: NaN should be unequal to itself according to the IEEE 754 spec.
Rogue: what's cool about Perl 6 is that it (correctly) distinguishes `==` (numerical identity) from `===` (actual identity)
so you don't get the typical problem where you can't even check against NaN 22:15
discord6 <kawaii> @Rogue hey that works! many thanks
<Rogue> Yeah, I get that and that's great, but still, it seems odd to have something of type Numeric have such counterintuitive behavior on a "numeric equality" operator 22:16
masak again, it's not Perl 6, it's IEEE 754. that's just how NaN is supposed to behave.
discord6 <Rogue> I do wonder about their rationale 22:17
masak and it makes some weird amount of sense too, because two arithmetical failures shouldn't compare as being the same failure
^ that's the rationale
discord6 <Rogue> I suppose so
masak that's also why there are many separate possible NaN values, of which NaN is just the privileged one
22:18 dct joined
masak m: say Inf - Inf; say 0 * Inf; say Inf - Inf == 0 * Inf 22:18
camelia NaN
NaN
False
masak I'd rather that comparison be False than True, to be honest 22:19
guifa The nice thing though is that if you don’t like it, you could always override the comparison :-)
masak just like if you don't enjoy the fact that 2 + 2 == 4... :P
m: multi infix:<+>(2, 2) { 5 }; say 2 + 2
camelia 5
masak grins evilly 22:20
discord6 <Rogue> Sneak that one into your next module
masak well, usually these things are lexically scoped ;)
