interwebs hey folks 00:55
what usecases is raku good for?
hopefully not too controversial to ask about, lest the answers are not "well any turing complete language can do anything" 00:56
rypervenche interwebs: Hang around, people will answer :) Might take a little bit since it's night time. 01:04

kawaii Are there any built-in tools for forming arrays from a list of words? I found `.words` which works for, well, single words, but I want to provide a list that could look like `test bark "apple pie 12:43
ugh, carriage return
`test bark "apple pie" test2` and count the quoted word as it's own entry in the array
rypervenche kawaii: And all of these words are on a single line? 12:52
kawaii rypervenche: yes! 12:52
rypervenche Don't know of anything built-in for that. I might either change the format of the line and put each "word" on its own line and then use .lines, or write a little grammar to do what you're wanting. 12:54
kawaii could try a grammar, not used that yet :) 13:05
[Coke] I have already received a vote for the RSC. 13:10
[Coke] will reject it and ask them to use the correct form once voting starts. 13:11
tony-o: it was based on the requirement that we not have more than X people from the same employer on the RSC 13:12
tony-o: latest thoughts: we'll elect the folks, and they'll attest they don't work together. I was just trying to get all the info I needed to properly conduct the vote, but I am assured that it's not needed now.

codesections m: say 'test bark "apple pie" test2' ~~ m:g/'"'.*'"'||\w+/ 13:34
camelia (｢test｣ ｢bark｣ ｢"apple pie"｣ ｢test2｣)
codesections ^^^ kawaii something like that could work (it might be worth splitting it out into a named regex or grammar for clarity, though) 13:35
or, I guess this is really more the output you'd want: 13:36
m: say 'test bark "apple pie" test2' ~~ m:g/'"'<(.*)>'"'||\w+/
camelia (｢test｣ ｢bark｣ ｢apple pie｣ ｢test2｣)
kawaii codesections: yeah that's perfect :D 13:37
thanks!
rypervenche Doesn't work properly though, too greedy. 13:38
m: say 'test bark "apple pie" test2 "lemon pie"' ~~ m:g/'"'<(.*)>'"'||\w+/;
camelia (｢test｣ ｢bark｣ ｢apple pie" test2 "lemon pie｣)
kawaii ah you're right :D 13:39
codesections m: say 'test bark "apple pie" test2 "lemon pie"' ~~ m:g/'"'<(<-["]>*)>'"'||\w+/
camelia (｢test｣ ｢bark｣ ｢apple pie｣ ｢test2｣ ｢lemon pie｣)
kawaii I'll do some testing with this 13:40
codesections rypervenche: good catch, thanks!
(fixed now ^^) 13:41
tobs a couple regexes for properly quoted data would make a fine module
(didn't I write an advent post about this recently? :P)
kawaii codesections: rypervenche thanks guys, works perfectly for my use case :) 13:42
thundergnat kawaii: would qww< > not wrok for you? 13:46
m: dd [qww< test bark "apple pie" test2 "lemon pie" >]
camelia Array element = ["test", "bark", "apple pie", "test2", "lemon pie"]
kawaii what absolute sorcery is this??
rypervenche hahaha
thundergnat *work
kawaii ahahahaha what the heck
thundergnat single quoting with white space preservation 13:47
timotimo that only works with stuff directly in the source code, though
if you have it in a variable, you'd have to EVAL to get the same functionality
which i think is kind of a missing bit in the core library
tobs m: my $x = Q[ test bark "apple pie" test2 "lemon pie" ]; say qww«$x»
camelia $x
tobs huh
timotimo well, qww won't interpolate at all 13:48
would have to be qqww
kawaii m: my $x = Q[ test bark "apple pie" test2 "lemon pie" ]; say qqww«$x»
camelia (test bark "apple pie" test2 "lemon pie")
timotimo dd or .raku it 13:49
rypervenche That seems to create a single string though. 13:49
kawaii oh yes you're right
timotimo you can also get "apple and then pie" as elements 13:50
timotimo m: use MONKEY-SEE-NO-EVAL; my $evil-input = Q[\qq"{ say "i owned you"; exit } ]; my $result = EVAL 'qqww<<' ~ $evil-input ~ '>>'; say $result 13:55
camelia 5===SORRY!5=== Error while compiling /home/camelia/EVAL_0

kawaii I have this method which is supposed to create a hash containing many sethashes (and we have keys within being set to either t or f based on the state as defined by the add/remove methods above -> github.com/myisha/p6-zoe-badwords/...akumod#L36 15:24
Is it possible for Raku to auto-vivify the inner hashes to sethashes? 15:25
Because it doesn't seem to be working as expected
timotimo m: my SetHash %foo; %foo<hi><yo>++; dd %foo
camelia Hash[SetHash] %foo = (my SetHash % = :hi(SetHash.new("yo")))
timotimo that's not quite right, eh? :D
m: my SetHash %foo; %foo<hi><yo>++; dd %foo; dd %foo<hi> 15:26
camelia Hash[SetHash] %foo = (my SetHash % = :hi(SetHash.new("yo")))
SetHash %foo = SetHash.new("yo")
timotimo is the output just confusing me?
m: my SetHash %foo; %foo<hi><yo>++; %foo<hi><bye>++; %foo<bye><ohmy>++; dd %foo; say %foo<bye>.^name
camelia Hash[SetHash] %foo = (my SetHash % = :bye(SetHash.new("ohmy")), :hi(SetHash.new("bye","yo")))
SetHash
timotimo m: my SetHash %foo; %foo<hi><yo>++; %foo<hi><bye>++; %foo<bye><ohmy>++; say %foo.keys; say %foo<hi>.keys; say %foo<hi><bye>.^name 15:27
camelia (bye hi)
(bye yo)
Bool
timotimo cool.
kawaii: - seems to work like what you want

kawaii timotimo: I test, thanks :) 15:28
tony-o [Coke]++ 15:45
guifa kawaii: I would use a regex comb 15:47
m: my $a = 'apple banana "valencia orange" durian'; say $a.comb(/['"' ~ '"' .*] || \S+/);
camelia (apple banana "valencia orange" durian)
guifa But nothing more built in that really
guifa .comb(/['"' <( .* )> '"'] || \S+/); will get rid of your quotation marks 15:49
codesections guifa: why do you prefer the regex comb to just the regex? You get essentially the same list either way, right? 15:59
(with the only difference being that the regex gives you a list of matches rather than strings, but they trivially coerce to strings) 16:00
[Coke] we have some mac users here - anyyyy ideas wwwwwwwwhy typing on a bt mac keyboard would sometimeand sometimes dupliccccccate keys? (be sloww/laggy was firsttttt) 16:01
it is haaaaappening rrrrrighhttttttttt nooow 16:02
should probably just give up and get keyboardio
codesections I've also been tempted to get a keyboardio -- I've heard good things 16:04
(and then you could be running linux on your keyboard, even if you aren't (yet!) using it on your computer :D)
guifa codesections: if you use the regex, the matches are in a match object. comb basically returns the equivalent of Match.list 16:05
so, six half dozen? :-) 16:06
codesections (I'm also kind of tempted by this keyboard, though it could be too small and isn't out yet: www.kickstarter.com/projects/keyboardio/atreus)
guifa: fair enough; I was just curious
guifa Also, kawaii’s request reminds me of yet another that I can add into Intl at some point 16:08
CLDR has some stuff for breaking up words on a language-by-language level 16:09
ditto for sentences
codesections haha, from the mailing list just now: «As for OT, everthing is OT here, since we're talking about Raku in a Perl 6 mailing list... :)» -- Larry Wall 16:31
rypervenche Ha! He's not wrong ~_^ 16:34

Fix incorrectly defined voting process
tbrowder ref voting: i sure would like to have seven votes for seven seats! 20:06
what is the intent of voting for only 5 of the seven? statistical magic? 20:08
vrurg tbrowder: I think it's an error, but let's accept things as they are for now or we risk another round of bikeshedding and losing time. 20:10
tbrowder [Coke]: not trying to be disrespectful, just wondering.
just harder to pick... 20:12

tbrowder i only bet on a horse race one time. i gave a classmate $2 and picked a horse with long odds. he came back from a day at the track and gave me $2. ??? the horse bolted at the gate and all bets were off.
