Jan Dvorak

I don't have any halp at hend right now, sorry

Qwerp-Derp

How do I match args in Clojure fns and defns?

In Atom's text editor, I want to match a and b in this defn:

(defn test [a b]
  (* a b))

Jan Dvorak

O_o

Qwerp-Derp

12:06 AM

For clarification, I only want to match the a and b inside the square brackets separately.

Григорий Перельман

a|b?

Jan Dvorak

[ab](?=.*\])

Qwerp-Derp

But the args can be any name though

(defn test [arg-name other-arg-name]
  (* arg-name other-arg-name))

DJMcMayhem

@WheatWizard I'd love to but I'm not sure which language to use

Григорий Перельман

I'm a little confused what you're trying to match. Can you give an example?

Jan Dvorak

12:08 AM

(?<=\[.*)\w+(?=.*\])

Wheat Wizard

@DJMcMayhem You should do wsf

or glypho

glypho is a bit harder

Qwerp-Derp

@ГригорийПерельман In Clojure, functions are written like so:

(defn function-name [{list of arguments}]
  {code})

Григорий Перельман

You're trying to match a function definition?

Qwerp-Derp

The list of arguments is separated by spaces, so it could be [a b c d]

I want to match the arguments

So a, b, c, d

Jan Dvorak

any collection of word chars after a [ and before a ]?

Qwerp-Derp

12:12 AM

@JanDvorak Only if it's wrapped around brackets with defn

DJMcMayhem

@WheatWizard wow, you're only 39 characters away!

Qwerp-Derp

I want to match arguments in (defn test [a b] (* a b)), but not [a b] on its own (because those aren't arguments)

Jan Dvorak

Good. Now we're getting somewhere. Knowing what you want is the first step to getting it.

Qwerp-Derp

@JanDvorak Apparently lookbehinds can't have variable length wildcards (so no *, + or ?)

Григорий Перельман

Wut

Jan Dvorak

12:14 AM

notes this bit of trivia for the purposes of guessing Qwerp's environment.

Григорий Перельман

This is Clojure rejex?

Jan Dvorak

I think he said Atom, so ... Javascript flavor?

Qwerp-Derp

@JanDvorak (?<=.*) doesn't work rubular or regex101

So I'm assuming they don't work in general

@ГригорийПерельман I want to extend the Atom's Clojure highlighter, this isn't Clojure regex

How confusing is my problem right now?

I can clarify some things if you guys are still confused

Jan Dvorak

it's becoming less unclear but it's still too broad.

Qwerp-Derp

@JanDvorak What's unclear?

I think I should just rephrase my problem entirely

I want to extend Atom's highlighting for Clojure to include function arguments in defn (Atom probably uses Ruby-flavoured regex, because it supports lookbehinds).

An example of a defn looks like this:

(defn multiply [a b]
  (* a b))

The function name is multiply, and the arguments are a and b.

I want to match the function arguments (a and b), but only in the context of a defn - so the match must only go through if it follows the format of a defn.

ETHproductions

12:23 AM

@JanDvorak Problem: JS doesn't have lookbehinds

Qwerp-Derp

The reason behind this is because vectors (basically lists in Clojure) is denoted using square brackets as well, and I don't want to match that.

Did I clarify everything?

@JanDvorak?

Jan Dvorak

Don't ask me. I'm no longer here.

Qwerp-Derp

???

ETHproductions

12:39 AM

Wow, how long has this existed?

That is incredibly similar to my avatar

Григорий Перельман

@Qwerp-Derp But nearly every regex flavor has look behinds.

Even Java has lookbehinds

ETHproductions

Not JS :-(

But there's a proposal that's making its way up the ranks

Григорий Перельман

o.0

ETHproductions

github.com/tc39/proposal-regexp-lookbehind

Qwerp-Derp

How should I start cracking this problem?

Григорий Перельман

12:44 AM

Well, I don't think you can do that without lookbehinds.

ETHproductions

If you can handle capturing groups though, it should be fairly easy.

Григорий Перельман

You need to match something based on what's around it, without actually including what's around it in the match.

Qwerp-Derp

@ГригорийПерельман Atom's syntax highlighter has lookbehinds

Григорий Перельман

But it uses JS regexes?

Qwerp-Derp

It's more like Ruby's syntax I'm guessing

ETHproductions

12:47 AM

/\(defn \w+ \[((?:\w*)(?:\s+\w+)*)\]/ should capture all of the variable names in the one and only capturing group

Григорий Перельман

I looked it up, the Atom devs confirmed somewhere that JS regexes are being used internally.

Riker

@Downgoat looks like an "open in browser" link to me

the little square with arrow in it right

Qwerp-Derp

What's ?:?

Riker

?: is modifier iirc

Григорий Перельман

?: is a noncapturing group.

ETHproductions

12:49 AM

Doesn't it mark a non-capturing group?

You don't need the first one though, actually

Григорий Перельман

If you put a modifier after it, the modifier applies to the group and only the group, without being able to be matched by a backreference.

ETHproductions

Hmm, the proposal to standardize global in JS is nearly complete

Qwerp-Derp

I modified your regex a little:

\(defn\s+\w+\s*\[(\s*\w+)((?:\s+)\w+)*\]

I want to ignore the \s in the capturing groups inside the square brackets

Is that possible?

Григорий Перельман

No, the entire point of a capturing group is to exactly match everything in it.

Yes

@Downgoat might get cluttered, maybe only a couple of lines

and at the very bottom ofc

Downgoat

1:10 AM

@Riker ok. Just that I dunno what to put on bottom because very empty atm

Riker

yah

Григорий Перельман

If you do that, you can remove the link to the README that's also there

@ГригорийПерельман silly me, a newline is shorter than &&

Riker

also, just a note: the starboard has many things with 2-digit star counts

more than normal

Григорий Перельман

I think we all know about the HTTPS thing, we don't really need it pinned anymore.

Conor O'Brien

let it unpin itself naturally

Григорий Перельман

1:16 AM

How does that work?

Conor O'Brien

things unpin themselves after a while

Downgoat

@ГригорийПерельман usually in around 3-4 weeks

Григорий Перельман

I did not know that.

I don't think it should be pinned for 3-4 weeks tho

Riker

it kinda should

because it's not done yet

Григорий Перельман

Do we really need to follow it's progress though.

Just make another announcement when it's done.

Conor O'Brien

1:21 AM

there's nothing gained by unpinning it

Григорий Перельман

But if we unpin it we can fit more memes on the starboard

Conor O'Brien

that's a horrible incentive

Григорий Перельман

@HelkaHomba I think if you specify that if a digit is changed to 0 in a number it must also be changed in the other number, the challenge is more interesting. Still not rocket science, but I think it would be worth having in that state.

Is this a good syntax?

loop(n) ->

@Qwerp-Derp is it an esolang?

Yup

It's the sequency esolang that I'm possibly working on

Downgoat

I can't really tell what it does but the syntax looks neat

Qwerp-Derp

5:01 AM

It's a truth machine function

Matthew Roh

@Qwerp-Derp Ah. Looks like you got inspired from switch.

Qwerp-Derp

ack(m n) ->
  {m = 0: n + 1
  {n = 0: ack (m-1) 1
  {ack (m-1) (ack m (n-1))

I'm thinking of making functions comma-less

Matthew Roh

'Ack' looks like a painful sound :P

Qwerp-Derp

I think there's too many brackets though

Matthew Roh

Is it a golfing lang?

It doesn't look like so

Qwerp-Derp

5:05 AM

I think that syntax looks nice

Matthew Roh

Since its too verbose

Qwerp-Derp

It's probably not going to be golfy

It might be IDK

a(m n)->{m=0:n+1;n=0:a(m-1)1;a(m-1)(a m(n-1))

I'm thinking of making a recursive function syntax as well:

(m n)->{m=0:n+1;n=0:@(m-1)1;@(m-1)(@ m(n-1))

Compare the three versions

Qwerp-Derp

Wait actually ignore the above one

@PhiNotPi Uhhh... I have a question - does this look neat?

PhiNotPi

The syntax?

Qwerp-Derp

sumFib(n) ->
  {sum[(n) ->
         {n in [0 1]: 1
         {@(n - 1) + @(n - 2)
   ][to n]

@PhinotPi Yeah, it's for a language I'm going to be designing (hopefully soon)

PhiNotPi

Where's the }s?

Qwerp-Derp

@PhiNotPi No }'s

Cause it's meant to simulate these types of functions:

Ackermann function

In computability theory, the Ackermann function, named after Wilhelm Ackermann, is one of the simplest and earliest-discovered examples of a total computable function that is not primitive recursive. All primitive recursive functions are total and computable, but the Ackermann function illustrates that not all total computable functions are primitive recursive. After Ackermann's publication of his function (which had three nonnegative integer arguments), many authors modified it to suit various purposes, so that today "the Ackermann function" may refer to any of numerous variants of the original...

See the curly brace thing

PhiNotPi

5:53 AM

How would you be able to nest it?

Qwerp-Derp

Actually no I don't think that would work, unless I nest the square bracket thing all in one line

fib(n) ->
  {n in [0 1]: 1
  {(fib (n - 1)) + fib (n - 2)

sumFib(m n) ->
  {sum [fib][to n]

The reason for the spaces between fib (n - 1) is because for multiple args I want to do something like this: a b (c + d), where b and (c + d) are args

@ASCII-only What do you think of my syntax for CMQ

@ASCII-only :( Y u ignore me

@Qwerp-Derp because i was afk sorry

@ASCII-only Charles Montgomery Quince

Geddit? C. Quince?

@ASCII-only?

@HelkaHomba Stackylogic is really cool :)

ASCII-only

6:14 AM

@Qwerp-Derp seems nice but what does [fib][to n] do

Qwerp-Derp

[fib] makes a sequence of all the numbers (1 to infinity) of the fib function, and [to n] get all the elements of that sequence to n

So [(n)->2*n][to 5] becomes [0 2 4 6 8]

ASCII-only

@Qwerp-Derp why square brackets for [fib] though

Qwerp-Derp

[function] denotes a sequence

Should I use #[]?

ASCII-only

@Qwerp-Derp oh ok so it's [sequence][subscript]?

Qwerp-Derp

@ASCII-only Yup

ASCII-only

6:18 AM

@Qwerp-Derp ok why the parens around fib (n - 1)

Qwerp-Derp

Easier to parse

I'm trying to make the syntax comma-less as well btw

ASCII-only

@Qwerp-Derp how is it easier to parse

Qwerp-Derp

IDK, it should parse (n - 1) as an entire expression

ASCII-only

why (fib (n - 1)) not fib (n - 1)

Qwerp-Derp

(fib (n - 1)) + fib (n - 2)

You can omit brackets only at the end of a line

I'm not sure if I should make it a thing

ASCII-only

6:23 AM

@Qwerp-Derp probably not but recursive seems like it would be useful as this e.g. #(n - 1) + #(n - 2)

@Qwerp-Derp why though

Qwerp-Derp

@ASCII-only I can get rid of that rule if you want

@ASCII-only But what about functions with multiple variables?

ASCII-only

@Qwerp-Derp yeah i think it looks better without parens

Qwerp-Derp

@ASCII-only That's done with @

ASCII-only

@Qwerp-Derp functionName (x - 1 x - 2)

Qwerp-Derp

functionName (x - 1) (x - 2) would look better IMO

ASCII-only

6:25 AM

so basically it's a bit like lisp?

then hmm i think you shouldn't be able to omit brackets at all

@Qwerp-Derp D: sumfib doesn't use m

Qwerp-Derp

@ASCII-only Whoops added an m in

@ASCII-only Yeah

ASCII-only

@MatthewRoh Use lenguage

@Qwerp-Derp i think you should use Python slice syntax: [to n] becomes [:n]

Kritixi Lithos

@fergusq How do you force the program to take input in Röda? pull var_name works, but when I'm inside a stream, like a seq for-loop, pull doesn't take user input

fergusq

@KritixiLithos Currently the only way is to create a named stream like this: main { stream x; x.push | seq 1, 10 | for i do line := x.pull(); push i, ": ", line; done }

But that is an eager operation, so it will consume all input. I should really create a function that will read from stdin.

Григорий Перельман

That is probably important, yes.

Kritixi Lithos

8:14 AM

True, as of now, when I do stream stdin; stdin.pull(a) the program doesn't end, it keeps wanting more input

fergusq

@KritixiLithos The problem is that stdin.push() reads all input it can, in an infinite loop. It could probably be possible to create a custom stream implementation in Röda that was lazy, but it's easier to just add a builtin that reads from stdin. I'll create one when I have time to continue coding later today.

If you know how many items you are going to read, you can limit the number of pushed items with head, like this: stream stdin; head(3) | stdin.push() | ...

Kritixi Lithos

What exactly does push do to the stream?

fergusq

The push method (without arguments) reads all values from its input stream and pushes them to the stream object. stream x creates a queue and x.push adds items and x.pull pops.

In main { stream stdin; stdin.push() | seq(1, 5) | for i do ... done } the values in the input stream of main are consumed by stdin.push() in parallel with the seq for loop.

Григорий Перельман

8:31 AM

How does for i do ... work? Don't you need to specify what to iterate over?

Kritixi Lithos

It iterates over the seq(1, 5)

Григорий Перельман

Oh. Does for i in seq(1, 5) work?

fergusq

The for i do ... done loop iterates over the stream. In detail: stdin.push() consumes all values in the stream and pushes nothing back. seq(1, 5) reads nothing from the stream and pushes values 1..5. for i do .. done consumes all values of the stream.

Григорий Перельман

So the if the for loop operates on the stream, what was the point of the seq(1, 5)?

fergusq

Apparently @KritixiLithos wants to iterate over two streams at once: the stdin stream (the default) and the seq(1, 5) stream.

The seq for loop is like this in Bourne shell: seq 1 5 | while read num; do ...; done

Григорий Перельман

8:38 AM

I don't really know how Bourne shell work, to be honest.

fergusq

@KritixiLithos You can try to use the for in construct also: for i in [seq(1, 5)] do .. done. Now the stream is connected to stdin, not seq.

Kritixi Lithos

Ah, thanks

Do you guys think there should be a chatroom for discussing Röda?

Григорий Перельман

Eh, if it disrupts anyone else's conversation, yeah.

Kritixi Lithos

Btw, how do you specify regex flags?

fergusq

Do you mean like (?i)[a-z] for both lower and upper case letters?

Kritixi Lithos

8:48 AM

Yeah, that works. What regex engine does it use, or is it a custom one?

ASCII-only

I'd say Java's

I don't think a custom one is very easy to do

fergusq

It uses Java Matcher and Pattern classes: docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html

Kritixi Lithos

TIL you could do (?i) in Java regex

Kritixi Lithos

9:08 AM

I am now trying to crack your cop's submission @fergusq. All's good, but the only problem is with the |s. I only have 2 of them

fergusq

I think I made the regex too easy. It's always possible to add unnecessary pipelines inside if false etc.

Kritixi Lithos

9:40 AM

Okay, cracked for real now

fergusq

Well done!

Kritixi Lithos

Why do you need parenthesis around the _ after the {seq} block?

fergusq

10:00 AM

Because they are part of the function call syntax. They can be left out at the statement level, but not at the expression level. (Except after pipe characters. This is valid: print(seq(1,5)|pull)

If the parentheses could be omitted, they could cause difficulties with parsing. Eg. is f-3 function call f(-3) or a calculation f minus 3.

betseg

I still didn't decide if I should make my language completely usable with function and stuff and put real work on it, or just a simple list of built-in commands.

Kritixi Lithos

Oh, so _ is sorta like an argument to the function block

@betseg Toyota or Rolls Royce?

betseg

The first part of the sentence: "[...] and put real work on it, [...]"

fergusq

_ can be used as an argument or inside an argument. Eg push(1,2,3) | seq(1, _+1) pushes values 1,2,1,2,3,1,2,3,4 to the stream.

Qwerp-Derp

@betseg Yeah

Haven't really posted in a long time

What about a challenge where you have to output a sound within a certain decibel range?

fergusq

10:47 AM

@KritixiLithos _ is syntax sugar for for loops. f(_) = f(x) for x = for x do f(x) done. The for loop is placed around the nearest function call.

Kritixi Lithos

So push(1,2,3) | seq(1, _+1) is equal to push(1,2,3) | seq(1, x+1) for x, right?

(it may be impossible)

Jan Dvorak

Does it have to work even if it's not struck by radiation?

Otherwise qq in HQ9+ will do the trick.

feersum

No, but it has to work if it's struck by radiation of arbitrarily low energy.
