<0> nachos: What about it?
<1> ew73: at least francium is more explosive! I WINNAR
<2> i dont understand what you mean, what block is making your head hurt?
<3> infi: SODIUM IS CHEAPER!
<0> nachos: The entire code.
<2> lol why?
<0> Hard to explain
<4> Ok, so what in that paste doesn't make sense, nachos?
<2> I think its a fairly good effort :-)
<2> alester: the map block.
<4> ok, that's equivalent to this
<2> I'm just confused how it works, i pulled it from the map manpage.
<3> I'd love to stay and chat, but I think I'm going to play civ4, then maybe watch some pr0n, then maybe read a book and go take a nap until it's not a ****ing INFERNO.
<5> anyone know how to use Date::Parse to get the first day of a week based on a week number and year?
<4> for my $_ ( @head ) { push @tmp, $_, shift(@line) } %tmp = @tmp;
<0> ew73: You're ****ing infernos?



<2> its a bit of a learning curve because i think in C, so its a bit hard to break my old habits and get around how perl works.
<2> for example
<2> ($foo,$bar) = ($bar,$foo);
<4> nachos: But that makes intrinsic sense, doesn't it?
<2> i knew how it worked, but it had me a bit perplexed.
<4> looking at it?
<4> You're worrying about the "how"
<2> exactly.
<4> You have to let go and trust. :-)
<2> :-D
<4> Here's another one that I'm sure messes you up
<2> you still working on that map example :-)
<4> in C, if you do a "return &localvar" you know that's bad news.
<4> because it's pointing to the stack.
<0> Fun though
<2> yeah, once it exits the function the data is destroyed.
<4> But inj Perl we do "return \lexical" and it's fine.
<2> but in perl
<2> yeah, i was just about to say.
<0> This is because perl is smart.
<4> "return \$lexical"
<4> nachos; It's also incredibly powerful.
<0> I had to write C =[
<4> Learn to embrace references.
<0> It was horrible.
<4> Don't think of them as pointers.
<2> oh yes.
<6> I dont know much C but why would "return &localvar" be bad?
<6> s/much/much if any/
<7> Local variables are on the program stack
<2> alester: would it be wise to convert the foreach(@lines) loop into a map block ( returning @elements )?
<2> if thats even possible, and how? lol!
<4> nachos: You could, but it wouldn't be any clearer.
<4> If you got it from the map perldoc page, it's going to be the best you'll get.
<2> can you call return within a map block?
<5> nachos: nope
<2> okay
<2> thanks
<5> if you want to element to be ignored, you can map it to ()
<5> which will disappear when the list is flattened
<2> okay.
<2> god perl is good
<7> Yes
<7> map { $_->join } map { async {...
<6> eval: map { return "foo" } qw(1 2 3)
<8> Chris62vw: foo
<6> kind of useless
<6> eval: map { return "foo" } qw(); return "hi"
<8> Chris62vw: hi
<9> eek, I just found out that Robey Pointer is GAY!
<6> who
<6> My name is Robey Pointer, and I live in San Francisco, California. I'm 32 years old, 1.8m tall, and 65kg. I like to listen to and make music, write software, and bike. I'm gay. My email address is robey@lag.net, and I work at Danger, Inc.
<6> he must be super fruity gay, expressing his height and weight in METRIC
<6> only a flaming red hot homo would do such a thing
<9> he wrote the original eggdrop bot
<6> oh
<9> I bet he has cooties
<0> STEVEN SEGFALL
<9> COOTIES!
<2> the guy who wrote ircu2 is gay aswell
<9> eek!



<6> what's up with all these homos on irc?
<9> yeah
<9> it's like Gay Capitol of the Internet or something
<6> always trying to /ctcp FONDLE me and ****
<10> wtf are cooties btw?
<10> coldsores?
<10> facial herpes?
<11> beta bogons
<12> how to run a file named foo.pl
<0> CTCP COCK ****
<6> perl foo.pl
<13> petroleum_: the term usually refers to fictional germs
<10> ahh
<13> "ew, I've got girl cooties"
<10> i didnt know that, thanks beth :D
<13> but I think it originally meant lice, or something
<11> and remove the useless .pl. Write a interface, not a liability
<6> you weren't supposed to tell him!!
<13> sorry, I just spout information
<13> I can't help it
<10> beth i ***ume you're female?
<10> dont plug the leak :D
<10> it's fun :P
<6> stick your finger in the dike, keep the flood back!
<13> don't you know that when you make an ***umption, you make an *** out of u and umption?
<10> it's amazing to find a girl on irc, let alone on perl chan
<13> I am not a dike!
<10> hehe
<13> yes, I'm a girl. And there are way more girls on irc than you realize.
<6> no, I mean the... oh.
<11> whoa, more than two?
<6> I guess you aren't
<13> WAY more than two
<10> i suppose they just dont advertise it to stop being pestered ;)
<11> no!
<13> yes!
<10> to avoid*
<6> tape the blowhole!
<0> petroleum_: For example, thrig and Chris62vw are girls.
<6> (not trying to say you're a whale, but)
<13> but usually they hide behind androgynous namees like "thrig"
<0> Chris62vw: Dude, she's like 2 foot tall
<10> hehe
<13> did I really look that short to you?
<10> how tall are you beht?
<6> she's between 4 and 8 feet tall
<0> beth: I guess not. For some reason I just thought you were much taller so the difference was more extreme than it should have been.
<6> you know, no one ever asks the guys how tall they are
<10> ok..
<10> everyone who's here
<10> how tall are you
<13> Chris62vw, how tall are you?
<6> buu, did yall meet?
<6> beth, 234.78 units tall!
<0> Chris62vw: Yeah, I saw her at yapc
<6> lucky buu. sorry beth
<0> =[
<10> lol
<6> buu, you're dangerous. you never know
<0> Chris62vw: IT WAS JUST A TRENCHCOAT
<10> ok, well since it's nearly 6am
<10> im going to shoot off to bed
<10> have a lovely evening all
<14> Something that strikes me about most testing tutorials is that they don't really give the reader much motivation to write tests.
<13> they usually have a sentence about tests being good.
<6> so did you guys actually learn a lot of stuff about perl at the perl conference thingie?
<15> beth: did I meet you?
<1> Debolaz: actually, I thought that perldoc Test::Tutorial is really good and motivating, and it keeps you entertained the whole way through with its consoling, hand-holding sympathetic shoulder approach.
<8> Debolaz: Type 'perldoc Test::Tutorial' in your shell or go to http://perldoc.perl.org/Test/Tutorial.html
<13> hachi: yes, I think one of the nights we rode a train to dinner
<0> Chris62vw: no =[
<0> Chris62vw: Granted I missed most of the p6 talks.
