@Dennis @mınxomaτ I might join in, if time zone permits. I think it would be useful for me to sit in on this as well

4 hours later…

Oh of course, yes.

ATaco

@Dennis Can I please get an RProgN-2 Pull?

Dennis

@ATaco Already went to bed. First thing in the morning.

ATaco

All good, Sleep well.

feature-request Could you change the text that is copied from Codegolf submission from [Try it online!]...[Try it online!]: https://tio.run/... to [Try it online!](https://tio.run/...) That approach is more friendly to having multiple links in the same post.

(I'm not sure if I explained that request clearly enough)

1 hour later…

@Dennis Can you please pull Brachylog?

4 hours later…

Dennis

13:22

@ATaco Done.

@Fatalize Done.

Fatalize

13:48

Thanks!

@Dennis can you pull again? I had a comma missing -.-

Dennis

@Fatalize Done.

Fatalize

14:04

Thanks, all's good now

Dennis

14:15

@DJMcMayhem I'm not a big fan of inline links (they make editing the post more cumbersome, especially on mobile). Just to understand the issue, do you use multiple TIO-generated code golf templates in the same post?

Adám

14:49

@Dennis Yes, occasionally.

@Dennis how does one add a footer to get at a function in python (I can't use a header as the function needs things to happen beforehand - I am creating a variable and using a built-in function that belongs to such an instance)

i.e. like this

Pavel

Dennis

16:59

@JonathanAllan Not sure if that's possible. If this is for PPCG, it wouldn't count as a function anyway since it's not reusable.

@DJMcMayhem Would a unique identifier solve your problem? I mean something like [Try it online!][TIO-abc] followed by [TIO-abc]: https://tio.run/....

Jonathan Allan

Why? An unnamed lambda is not reusable until it is assigned to a variable.

(it's not valid for the challenge in question of course)

Dennis

17:16

The point is that you can make it reusable (assign to a variable, map over a list, etc.). However, r.pop will once work once as intended.

Jonathan Allan

Ah I see it needs to be immutable in it's effect.

Adám

17:39

@Dennis Yes, but it would have to be a random id, not a sequential one.

Pavel

@Adám It could be the same hash used by the caching system.

Dennis

17:54

@Adám A time stamp should work.

1 hour later…

Adám

18:58

@Dennis Why doesn't Python 2 say Python 2 (PSF) just like PyPy says Python 2 (PyPy)?

Pavel

19:39

@Adám Because that python 2 is the bog-standard python 2 that the other implementations are based off of. No one ever refers to it as PSF, if anything they just call it 'normal python' or 'regular python'

Dennis

20:26

@Adám It's the reference implementation and it doesn't really have a name.

Compare:

dennis-home:~$ python
Python 2.7.12 (default, Jul 01 2016, 15:36:53) [GCC] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>
dennis-home:~$ pypy
Python 2.7.10 (850edf14b2c75573720f59e95767335fb1affe55, Nov 02 2015, 15:11:47)
[PyPy 4.0.0 with GCC 4.8.3 20140627 [gcc-4_8-branch revision 212064]] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>>

I guess adding PSF would make sense, but I had to google it to know what it means.

Pavel

21:04

It might make people think it's a non-standard implementation

Andrew Savinykh

must be something like python software foundation or something

that is if without googling

Pavel

@AndrewSavinykh Good job, exactly correct.

1 hour later…

DJMcMayhem

@Dennis This is a little bit of a random question, but would it be possible to get statistics about how many times V has been ran online?

V's one year anniversary is coming up, so I'm trying to put together some statistics about how much it has been used

Andrew Savinykh

@DJMcMayhem it's possible to get the number of times tio.run/nexus/v was hit. It is not possible to get the number of runs, since all the runs look the same in the logs, there is no language specifier in the url

Adám

@AndrewSavinykh Actually, public statistics would be really neat.

DJMcMayhem

Agreed

Andrew Savinykh

@Adám This is on Dennis's wishlist, but currently there are many items with much higher priority

Conor O'Brien

@Dennis TIO doesn't happen to have some sort of API/request thingy? I was wondering if I could make some sort of "TIO" shell. Yes I know it's weird to make a shell whose backend is known for online testing >_> I remember that Data bot used to have something like that for TIOv1

Anonymous

22:28

@Adám If anything, it should say CPython

Adám

@ConorO'Brien A The19thByte ChatBot you could write: @TIO Jelly some code

Andrew Savinykh

@ConorO'Brien it's planned. Currently you can run scripts against ttps://backend.tryitonline.net/run but the request format is a bit tricky. You can see here and here code samples.

ATaco

BRB, Writing a TIO Bot.

Conor O'Brien

@Adám I would but bots are discouraged in TNB ("TNB is a chatroom, not your personal calculator") @ATaco

ATaco

That doesn't mean I'm going to deploy it in TNB.

Conor O'Brien

22:33

ik, just something to keep in mind

Pavel

@ATaco You should ask @Downgoat about that.

Andrew Savinykh

@ConorO'Brien there is a bit of an issue with caching though, there is quite a bit of leeway in the way the request could be formed, and this reduce effectiveness of caching, so we are working on a better way of packaging that. We do want to provide a command line facility for TIO

Conor O'Brien

@AndrewSavinykh oh, cool.thanks! reading through the code atm

Adám

@ATaco I've been wanting a chat bot for APL in theaplroom.slack.com.
