SmokeMachine m: say (:a<bla>).uc 00:00
camelia No such method 'uc' for invocant of type 'Pair'
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
00:01
Voldenet (you can see by doing –target=ast that &prefix:<|> is not going to even be called in context of method call) 00:02
Nemokosch I made a function call 07:39
so yeah, right there...
seems like .Slip counts as one thing while |() counts as as many things as elements
jgaz Is course.raku.org/ stalled? 13:38
patrickb jgaz: I hope not. AFAIK ash tends to finish projects he starts. For now I'd assume it's the same here. 15:05
jgaz patrickb: thanks. 15:06
patrickb: It's a good project that I think the community needs. It's the next logical progression after Raku.guide. 15:09
tbrowder .ask ugexe when using zef's uninstall for an installed module, is there any way to have zef uninstall that module's dependencies that are not required by any other installed modules? 15:29
tellable6 tbrowder, I'll pass your message to ugexe
ugexe tbrowder: no, and there isn't really a way to determine what those are 15:31
you can have optional runtime dependencies for example
ugexe plus repos can depend on things from upstream repos which further complicates what that even means 15:34
lichtkind nine: thank you for the patch 17:17
tellable6 2020-08-07T15:38:19Z #raku <ab5tract> lichtkind I think there may be an uninintentional falling back to rational math when matrices of nums are involved in Math::Matrix? gist.github.com/ab5tract/3e25e4a2c...01a85b6993
2020-08-07T15:40:10Z #raku <ab5tract> lichtkind a bit unfair for Num to be "wrong", but also slow at being so :)
2020-08-07T15:38:00Z #raku <ab5tract> .tell lichtkind I think there may be an uninintentional falling back to rational math when matrices of nums are involved in Math::Matrix? gist.github.com/ab5tract/3e25e4a2c...01a85b6993

lichtkind is ab5stract a user ? 18:49
patrickb lichtkind: yes 18:53
lichtkind patrickb: allright i wondered if he just not present or some tag 18:54
uzl[m] m: 0 max False 21:27
camelia WARNINGS for <tmp>:
Useless use of "max" in expression "0 max False" in sink context (line 1)
uzl[m] m: say 0 max False
camelia 0
uzl[m] m: say False max 0 21:28
camelia False
uzl[m] Is the LHS being returned in those two examples?
If so, why does this commit (github.com/rakudo/rakudo/commit/175e716f) states "This commit changes &[max] so that it returns its RHS in the case of ties."? 21:29
Shouln't it be "This commit changes &[max] so that it returns its LHS in the case of ties."?
m: say max 0, False 21:30
camelia 0
uzl[m] m: say max False, 0
camelia False
uzl[m] I am asking because I am working on a PR for the 2022.06 checklist targeting this part of the issue 21:31
moon-child uzl[m]: presumably, the bot is running an older version than that commit
oh, no, that's the latest 21:32
uzl[m] moon-child: In this expression `False max 0`, what's the RHS operand?
m: say $*RAKU.compiler 21:34
camelia rakudo (2022.06.11.gb.5.a.82.d.28.b)
uzl[m] Yep, it's haha
I just found out I am still running 2021.12 👀 21:35
hythm Hello, I was reading the "did you know?" section of the weekly which talking about fiiltering arrays. I'm wondering why the name `grep` was chosen, should not grep have a different more general name? as grep, I think,  is associated more with text or regexp 21:53
I think 'filter' suits the current 'grep' functionality more. And 'grep' could be suited more for a `Str` method 21:58
guifa hythm: history, mainly 22:30
tellable6 guifa, I'll pass your message to hythm
guifa hythm: Perl used grep way back in the day, and so Raku (originally conceived as a future version of Perl) similarly used it 22:31
tellable6 guifa, I'll pass your message to hythm
