and can handle strings

Is 'x,x' intended?

@Bubbler yes

i am making it similar to lisp but not exaclty lisp

x,x is x x in APL

What is a sensible hash function for an array of integers?

Unrelated String

for what purpose

Razetime

if they're all unique why not use the ints themselves

pxeger

@Anush to hash the array, or to hash the integers?

Anush

Hash the entire array

Razetime

6:51 AM

base conversion?

Anush

Which means hashing the ordered sequence of integers

pxeger

Here's Python's implementation: github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Objects/tupleobject.c#L371

Anush

@pxeger thanks

But what is it doing?

pxeger

no idea lol

Here's Ruby's, which seems to be a bit simpler: github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/master/array.c#L5110

Razetime

calls pyobject hash, which is in a different file

pxeger

6:56 AM

@Razetime that just takes the individual hash of an element

Razetime

yeah which still needs to be read through

pxeger

for a list of integers, you can replace it with a hash function just for integers

This is the function for individual integers: github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Objects/longobject.c#L2915

Anush

I mean if I want to reimplement it what is the algorithm?

pxeger

are you more concerned about hashing the integers, or how to combine the integer hashes in an array?

Anush

@pxeger the latter

Bubbler

6:59 AM

@Anush This one claims to be extremely fast and has implementation in various languages

pxeger

@Bubbler can that do arbitrary-length blocks of memory?

Anush

@Bubbler I am hashing an array of integers

pxeger

@Anush if you just treat the array as a buffer (assuming it even is laid out contiguously) then I think xxHash would work

Anush

It will be in C++ in the end but that shouldn’t matter

@pxeger interesting

Bubbler

It seems to have four streams which process 4 bytes at once each, so it looks like it works best for a multiple of 16 bytes

Anush

7:04 AM

At the other extreme, SO recommends

std::size_t operator()(std::vector<uint32_t> const& vec) const {
std::size_t seed = vec.size();
for(auto& i : vec) {
seed ^= i + 0x9e3779b9 + (seed << 6) + (seed >> 2);
}
return seed;

A: A good hash function for a vector

So, when not wanting to use boost, Michael Blurr's comment led to the following hash function implementation: std::size_t operator()(std::vector<uint32_t> const& vec) const { std::size_t seed = vec.size(); for(auto& i : vec) { seed ^= i + 0x9e3779b9 + (seed << 6) + (seed >> 2); } ret...

Bubbler

For an integer array (uint32_t[]), you can pad zeroes to make it have multiple-of-4 integers and work on it

Anush

@Bubbler true

pxeger

@Bubbler but then you'd have collisions between the padded array and an array that really has 0s at the end

Anush

Pad with something unique :)

Bubbler

I read through this code and it actually looks like it simply works without padding (it does handle that in hash())

and it's only 180 lines of c++ header

@Bubbler if I ant an “unordered map” will C++ handle the collisions for me?

Bubbler

8:50 AM

Basically a parser converts a token stream into a tree called AST

PyGamer0

yes i found a good tutorial

Bubbler

In the CS sense, a parser uses context-free grammar to do that. Understanding it is good for parsing yourself or using a 3rd party parser libraries

PyGamer0

> context-free grammar

what does that mean

Bubbler

It is a topic that takes half semester to learn at university

PyGamer0

@Bubbler bruh

can a python collections.deque be indexed like a list?

Unrelated String

9:05 AM

i wouldn't count on it

not in the sense that i wouldn't count on the feature existing but in the sense that i wouldn't count on it being a good idea to use

if you're doing a lot of random access then consider using something meant for it

PyGamer0

@UnrelatedString Vyxal is using it?

Bubbler

collections.deque supports indexing but is O(n)

Unrelated String

@PyGamer0 i don't see that code doing anything but popleft()

Bubbler

deque has its uses, plain list has its uses

@PyGamer0 For practical purposes, you can search for tutorials on what a grammar looks like, how to use some parser generators (like how to express your grammar in the parser generator's language), what left-recursive grammar is and why it is bad, how you build an interpreter on top of that, etc.

Also "parser combinator" is a thing these days in many languages (the ancestor being Haskell's parsec), which makes it easy to build parsers without learning a separate "grammar language"

@PyGamer0 Basically aim for a tree structure like ["+", ["*", "2", "3"], "1"]

@Bubbler thats it?

Bubbler

Yes. Running it is the next step

emanresu A

For that, depth-first eval, right?

Bubbler

Right.

Or, once you get a parser that gives a tree, you can modify the parser to evaluate things on the fly

emanresu A

9:31 AM

Although then it becomes an interpreter

Bubbler

Parse tree -> depth-first eval is also a form of an interpreter

emanresu A

Another really simple option, given that it's lisp, would be to transpile by indexing the function name into a dictionary of lisp function names and calling that with the rest of the arguments - like (add(multiply(2,3),1) or something...
