@Downgoat idea: 2Dindexof in string--gives line and column

2 hours later…

Downgoat

02:36

@ConorO'Brien index suggests a 1D or single position. Perhaps .locate?

Conor O'Brien

true

I like that better

Downgoat

idea: .radar function which prints out ASCII radar animation in string beeping the locating string :P

Conor O'Brien

Downgoat

brb i need to get to work

OMF— there's a radar lib on NPM

i think i shuold probably make some STDOUT animation functions

Conor O'Brien

Downgoat

02:41

e.g. IO.stdout.animate( 20, 20, ->"a" ) will create 20x20 grid of as

:/ ok thats bad idea

Conor O'Brien

why?

sounds pretty neat

Downgoat

I think it should just be like IO.stdout.animate( -> "a".repeat(20, 20))

Conor O'Brien

02:54

whoa, repeat takes multiple args? what do they do?

8 hours later…

ASCII-only

10:52

@ConorO'Brien horizontal, vertical

@someone i don't dare to delete stale and merged branches but just letting people know

Conor O'Brien

11:09

@ASCII-only huh. that's interesting

ASCII-only

@ConorO'Brien Well, judging by Downgoat's earlier message I think that's what it is

Conor O'Brien

oh, true

ASCII-only

@Conor BTW posted temporary link to Jekyll blog in TNB, do you think it's a good idea?

Conor O'Brien

hm?

Jekyll blog?

ASCII-only

Medium is really annoying

Conor O'Brien

11:12

so you made a new one?

ASCII-only

I want to move to Jekyll but that means no read time/favoriting etc

@ConorO'Brien Not yet

Conor O'Brien

ASCII-only

If you want to I can push to GH and stuff, it's really un-Medium-like though (plus we need to redo the theme for Jekyll)

Conor O'Brien

I'd personally wait

ASCII-only

@ConorO'Brien ?

Conor O'Brien

11:13

wait on making another blog

ASCII-only

Hmm, why

Conor O'Brien

well, we have medium atm. it's a nice system (a little painful to write in) and we don't have an agreed upon alternative yet

ASCII-only

We can just copy the articles across

Plus Jekyll actually has syntax highlighting, and good highlighting at that

Conor O'Brien

my main concern was "agreed upon"

2 hours later…

ASCII-only

13:12

@Downgoat pls npm owner add to cheddar/cheddar-beta/ches pls?

Also pls fix infinity/nan literals in cheddar, I have no time

Downgoat

@ASCII-only ?

deployment is done through Travis

ASCII-only

Wait really

link?

@Downgoat pls finish Infinity and NaN

btw fixed toAST :D :D :D

Downgoat

@ASCII-only just push to develop and run ./vbump

ASCII-only

also nil can't cast to boolean :(

Downgoat

@ASCII-only just commit to develop and run ./vbump

itll give u instruction

Use Boolean constructor

ASCII-only

13:20

Can't vbump it's borked

Also sorry pushed to master for ches whoops

Downgoat

WAT

NO NO NO NO NO DIS VREY BAD

ASCII-only

ono everything will bork now RIP

Downgoat

Ok well can u try to undo and I'll figure out bork

Ok it's not tagged

u should be able to do git reset --soft v0.2.2

then checkout develop and recommit there

travis will then detect a merge and deploy if applicable

6 hours later…

Conor O'Brien

19:08

._.

I'm gone for not even a day and everything borks

@Downgoat we should have an alternative modulo operator as well (that is, we currently implement JS's %; we should have a proper mod operator, whether that be the mod keyword, or perhaps %%)

also, I'm going to be designing a stdlib that does a lot of text processing, e.g. converting 2D list of numbers to a nice-looking, right justified matrix thingy

3 hours later…

Downgoat

22:21

@ConorO'Brien I agree. I think it should be mod to be more idomatic imo

@ConorO'Brien :D +1

Conor O'Brien

@Downgoat mt, it looks nice

Downgoat

@ConorO'Brien btw when you're not busy? Can you help me test my sync-prompt plugin?

Conor O'Brien

I can do taht now

just tell me what I need to do

@Downgoat

Downgoat

ok, can you clone [email protected]:cheddar-lang/sync-prompt.git

then do npm install -g node-gyp

and then node-gyp configure

Conor O'Brien

[email protected]:cheddar-lang/sync-prompt.git

that?

Downgoat

22:31

Yea

@ASCII-only pls test your code even compile before pushing to deploy branch >_>

do yes

it is because you probably are cloning through SSH for first time. so git doesn't know about github

clone from this URL instead perhaps: https://github.com/cheddar-lang/sync-prompt.git

Conor O'Brien

that worked

npm install -g node-gyp

^ doing this now

@ConorO'Brien ;______; ono bork

Conor O'Brien

Downgoat

23:26

pls halp idk if gyp full-bork or gaot bork

ETHproductions

Hey guys! Quick question: how do you do range access from i to infinity on a list?

I tried l[i|>] but that gives me a syntax error

Conor O'Brien

well, range is an operator

ETHproductions

Oh, right

Conor O'Brien

idk if @Downgoat has a plan for range indexing

ETHproductions

Well, l[i|>1/0] throws Runtime Error: `/` has no behavior for types `Array` and `Number`

Conor O'Brien

23:31

yeah. |>s precedence is pretty low

ETHproductions

I thought that meant it's high, not low

Conor O'Brien

yes

cheddar> +|>a.len
readline.js:945
            throw err;
            ^

TypeError: Cannot read property 'constructor' of null

@Downgoat some more bug

ETHproductions

Why on earth does it have that high precedence? :P

Downgoat

@ETHproductions you'll need to do list.slice(i)

@ConorO'Brien goddammit

ETHproductions

@Downgoat Shucks

Conor O'Brien

23:33

@ETHproductions idk :P

the precedence confuses me sometimes

Downgoat

ETHproductions

Even l[i|>i] fails, saying Runtime Error: accessor must be integer

Downgoat

will fix next release

@ETHproductions yea, you can only access by integer item

i only added list[n] syntax to be familiar to C users

list[n] syntax is pretty slow because it has to create a new scope, etc. etc.

ETHproductions

@Downgoat ...oh...

I'm so dumb :P

Conor O'Brien

@Downgoat surely you could optimize that out

ETHproductions

23:36

BTW, the docs could really use some updating

Downgoat

@ConorO'Brien ;_; sounds hard tho

Conor O'Brien

why? just don't make a scope

Downgoat

@ETHproductions yeah >_> I'm trying to work on the docs but I use gitbooks for docs and that makes it quite a pain to view changes and add documents

Idk if anyone wants to halp make docs hint hint :P

@ConorO'Brien ill try but AST manipulations can be difficult

oh wait nvm i have idea

btw: On the cheddar website You'll now see a small grey dot ont he top-left corner, that is the changelog

ETHproductions

Ooh, that's nice. It looks the same as JSFiddle's

Downgoat

yup, headway

it's pretty cool, allows markdown
