[Coke] solves a teraminx 01:09
elcaro [Coke]: can you solve the megaminx? I presume it's similar? 01:47
Poohman hello all 03:57
im using perl6 & Comma in windows 7
I have a file with German characters which can be displayed perfectly in Notepad++ in tuf8 encoding 03:58
If i use the ANSI encoding in Notepad++ I see it change the character 03:59
but when I read the same file in Perl6 - it dosnt matter what encoding I use to read it I always get the character I see in the ANSI encoding in Notepad++ 04:00
228E4ää
in Notepad++ it changes between these 2 characters based on utf8 or ANSI respectively 04:01
but in Comma/perl6 it is always ä
have tried the iso encoding and the all the three windows ones 04:02
could it be a windows related issue?
will be back later - office beckons 04:04
[Coke] elcaro: megaminx is 5 to a side, tera is 7. yup, same basic algorithm, the 5x is much faster to solve. 04:23
elcaro [Coke]: i only know 3x3. i got one xmas '19. i'm consistently sub-30... i think that's about as fast as my old man hands can manage. 05:04
[Coke] the 3x3 I can do in... 15 or so? 05:27
the 5x5 takes me about an hour
the 7x7 I just did over the weekend a few 20 minute chunks at at ime

Doc_Holliwould m: say :8(16) 14:22
camelia This call only converts base-8 strings to numbers; value 16 is of type Int, so cannot be converted!
(If you really wanted to convert 16 to a base-8 string, use 16.base(8) instead.)
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
Doc_Holliwould now that is an awesome error message ^^
discord6 <Rogue> I'm quite frightened by the amount of precision dropped when I do pi.FatRat 15:48
<Rogue> I suspect because it's becoming a regular Rat first, but even then it should have more precision 15:49

Poohman hello all 18:30
stackoverflow.com/questions/551798...-from-file
Poohman anything possible with Win7 in this case? 18:31
sjn Poohman: just checking; are you aware that Win7 is to be end-of-life'ed on January 14th 2020? 18:36
so if you're trying to make this work on win7, it'll basically be a waste of your time...
Poohman sjn: yes I know that - but I dont have a lot of other options 18:37
sjn yeah, sorry to hear that. is the your own system or one run by your employer or customer? 18:38
Poohman My own is a Linux box, but I dont want to travel with 2 laptops 18:39
uzl[m] IIRC, a subroutine is a kind of routine while a method is another kind of routine. Thus, a subroutine/method is a routine but the other way around isn't necessarily true.
My question: If something is classified as a method, does it also need to be classified as a routine? 18:40
This question arose while I was looking at this page (docs.raku.org/routine.html). In some instances, the type of a name is only a "method". In other, it's a "method, routine".
sjn Poohman: sorry, I can't help you 18:44
Poohman: you can hang around, maybe someone else knows what to do (I wouldn't keep my hopes up though), or explore some fora or support channels that are more tailored towards windows 7 18:47
Or, just dtrt and upgrade
[Coke] even if you can't upgrade the win7 laptop itself for work reasons, one can run the win 10 OS in a VM from MS. 18:51
