| disbot3 | <librasteve> @stu002 that looks very interesting … there are several areas where raku was deigned (imo) to be compatible with math concepts … for example the Int and Real types | 06:12 | |
| <librasteve> one starting point is the type graphs docs.raku.org/type/Real#typegraphrelations | 06:13 | ||
| <stu002> The use of rationals for fractions and decimals fits very well with the learning exercises I’d like to try | |||
| <librasteve> i think that jubilations example should be a good mechanism | 06:14 | ||
| <stu002> Should I follow the docs at docs.raku.org/reference or one of the published books? | |||
| <librasteve> yes … there is good partitioning between rationals Rat and irrationals Num and a set of stickiness rules so Rat op Num => Num for example | 06:16 | ||
| <librasteve> i like the raku.guide to get started… quick conversion from another language, then make sure you read the docs.raku.org/language/objects | 06:18 | ||
| <librasteve> docs.raku.org/language/numerics#Nu...ctiousness oh i should have said infectious ness | 06:20 | ||
| <stu002> Thanks! | |||
| <librasteve> final thought … rakujourney.wordpress.com/2023/11/...rithmetic/ this was my foray into pushing raku Ranges a bit further to Intervals … this main point here is please do consider making a raku module of your work even as a stub for others to improve … the docs section on how to make a module is pretty easy and the App::Mi6 module helper is great | 06:24 | ||
| <librasteve> have fun! | 06:25 | ||
| <stu002> That’s neat. Raku seems like a very programmable programming language | 06:26 | ||

| disbot3 | <antononcube> ... by design, AFAIK. | 13:18 | |
| <antononcube> And somewhat opinionated. (Meaning, a lot.) | 13:19 | ||

| disbot3 | <drudgesentinel> last time I was poking around with Raku, I feel I remember there were performance advantages to using module files. Is this still the case? | 18:13 | |
| lizmat | yes | 18:37 | |

| deoac | I find the keyword 'but' misleading. Wouldn't 'butalso' more clearly describe its effect? | 19:27 | |
| lizmat | not necessarily | 19:39 | |
| m: my $a = 42 but False; say "never printed" if $a | |||

| disbot3 | <librasteve> I would support a keyword butalso along with notonly | 20:51 | |
