japhb El_Che: Implement sixel support in Terminal::Print and render it that way? ;-) 00:14
discord6 <theangryepicbanana> wow that's a name I haven't heard in a while 00:17
<theangryepicbanana> sixels are awesomely confusing
<theangryepicbanana> the jvm backend has more documentation than sixels tbh 00:18
MasterDuke i think timotimo has done some stuff with sixel 00:32
discord6 <theangryepicbanana> yea I did some sixel stuff on repl.it back when it was supported (was removed when they got GUIs working) 00:34
<theangryepicbanana> happened to do a thing in raku I think
<theangryepicbanana> can't find the project but it existed 00:38
cpan-raku New module released to CPAN! Net::BGP (0.4.0) by 03JMASLAK 01:05
Xliff WTF are sixels? 01:54
moon-child sixel is an API for displaying bitmap graphics in a terminal 02:21

discord6 <theangryepicbanana> apparently you can even watch videos with sixels 02:49
juliusdeane Are there any friends here with experience programming in raku on nixos? 02:55
I've had difficulty finding the right packages, e.g. zef, in the nix repos
rypervenche Gah, was too late. 03:29
holyghost I've started on a exp(x) integral inside p6-Game-Bayes, also using a Gauss function 06:58

guifa Wow. I just spent waaay too much time writing a super overkill answer on code review 19:31

lizmat aaahh... the infamous user0721090601 :-) 19:32

guifa Haha, 07 = G, 21 = U, 09 = I … etc ;-) 19:33
If it weren’t for Raku I’d’ve quite SE completely. I’ve not been pleased with the site over the past few months.
guifa I’m actually thinking about at some point doing a code documentation tutorial. To me, it’s a strength of Raku to have it so tightly integrated, but it’s not as heavily used as I think it could be. I probably over document my code (but for strictly following uninuitive standards it’s necessary, methinks) but there’’s lots of important modules whose only documentation is in the README.md on github and that doesn’t benefit IDEs 19:39
all.
veesh ++ on hating SE 20:33
TreyHarris guifa++ veesh++ -- I gave up totally on asking questions on any SE site anymore, because the incentive structure for dedicated high-point users is so highly biased towards preemptive closing, or, failing that, downvoting that it just became really unpleasant. I still answer though 22:15
veesh oh, i have religious objections 22:28
i'm jewish, and was really hurt by the whole monica thing
rypervenche I'm writing a little script to pull in a PSV file, parse out its parts, and then I want to store it somehow so that I can call all of the values later by giving it one of them. I'm guessing I need a something of hashes? Here is what the code looks like so far: gist.github.com/rypervenche/373636...7a80c7188f 23:01
rypervenche I know I could use an array of hashes and use the $<number>-1 as the array's element number. I'm not sure if that would be a smarter way to do it. I'd still be curious to know how to do it otherwise though. 23:15
TreyHarris rypervenche: assuming the index isn't monotonically increasing, Array::Sparse would let you just use the number positionally. If it is monotonically increasing, any regular indexable will do 23:23
But if it is monotonically increasing, you can afford to just leave the 0th item blank--you'd need to be judicious in your use of iterators and hypers so that the Nil works correctly. And you can iterate with `for @ary[1..*]:kv -> $id, $val`, like 23:36
m: my @m = ('a', 1), ('c', 2), ('d', 3); for @m[1..*]:kv -> $k, ($f, $s) { say "$k: $f → $s" }
camelia 1: c → 2
2: d → 3
TreyHarris m: my @m = Nil, ('c', 2), ('d', 3); for @m[1..*]:kv -> $k, ($f, $s) { say "$k: $f → $s" } 23:37
camelia 1: c → 2
2: d → 3
TreyHarris changing the first item to Nil doesn't matter since you slice from 1..*
