i am adding common jelly diagraphs as a single glyph in flax
lyxal
lyxal
which ones?
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
generate all permutations
Powerset
Split into chunks each of length 2
thats it for now
lyxal
lyxal
yeah okay I can see how that'd be a good idea
besides I can't exactly say "don't do that" seeing as how 2 of those are single byte stuff in Vyxal
probably 3 if I understand the first correctly
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
itertools.permutations?
lyxal
lyxal
looks like it
so yeah we got all 3 as one byte

ok i am going on the right track
but i doubt one dyad
> Find up till, find numbers ranging from 1 to x in y.
iⱮ in jelly
lyxal
lyxal
what's the jelly equivalent?
oh nvm

@lyxal ^
lyxal
lyxal
@PyGamer0 that just looks like [y.find(v) for v in x]
which is kinda useful and might make for a good one-byter
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
oh cool
> 71 iⱮ
its used 71 times
lyxal
lyxal
because the description of Ɱ is "Map a link over its right argument."
and i is "Find the first index of element y in list x, or 0."

@lyxal yeah i saw those descriptions
do the quicks map a single atom?
like does Ɱ use a single atom or a link?
lyxal
lyxal
links
they use links
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
all of them?
lyxal
lyxal
as many as they need
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
?
lyxal
lyxal
most only need one link

@Fmbalbuena that can just be ＰKα
lyxal
lyxal
@PyGamer0 for example HH$€maps HH$ to each item in a list
the HH$ is a single unit
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
ok
lyxal
lyxal
and HH$€ becomes a single unit itself
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
isnt the $ another quick?
lyxal
lyxal
it is
quicks are just postfix operators
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
Dec 3, 2021 11:25
jelly evals them during parsing?
lyxal
lyxal
it does grouping during parsing
it's like APL's operators
these
@PyGamer0 quick question: do you know how vyxal modifiers work?
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
no
lyxal
lyxal
ah
well I was going to say quicks are modifiers but they go after atoms
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
wait i think i know a modifier in vyxal
its the subscript equal sign right?
lyxal
lyxal
yeah, that's a modifier
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
Dec 3, 2021 11:28
it maps the next 2 commands to the top
right?
lyxal
lyxal
sorta
it applies them to the same stack
but the point is that it takes the next 2 commands
now here's the thing: it can also take other subscript equal signs
₌₌+-* is perfectly valid, and applies ₌+- and * to the same stack
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
wat wow
lyxal
lyxal
do you see how ₌ binds it's commands together?
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
yes
lyxal
lyxal
and do you see how it can be treated as a single command?
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
Dec 3, 2021 11:31
yes
lyxal
lyxal
that's what quicks do
they bind their commands together
and are treated as a single command
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
oh
lyxal
lyxal
so in the case of HH$€, the $ takes the last two commands (H and H) and treats them as a single command
and then € takes the HH$ command and maps it to its argument
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
ok
lyxal
lyxal
and different quicks bind different amount of commands together
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
Dec 3, 2021 11:33
and the commands are atoms?
commands = atoms?
lyxal
lyxal
almost
commands are atoms or groups of other commands
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
oh
does vyxal have a single byter (or a diagraph) for Reverse every other element
lyxal
lyxal
no
3 bytes: ⁽Ṙẇ
⁽ is a modifier that takes the next command and returns it as a lambda
ẇ pops two items and, when given a function and a value, maps the function to every second item
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
lambdas are functions which are immediately pushed to the stack?
lyxal
lyxal
correct
it's as if you wrote stack.append(lambda x: "code")
where you replace "code" with whatever you want the lambda to do

lol i already have 23 revisions of flax.md
lyxal
lyxal
dang that's more revisions than the vyxal style guide
which has had 21 revisions lol
PyGamer0
PyGamer0
some of the revisions is just adding a single command
lol
