run line question
Hi All, When folks write programs that read the run line like /a abc /r xyz or /r xyz /a aaabc or dd bs=4096 if=xxx.iso of=/dev/sdc basically, in any order. How do they keep track of what goes where? Many thanks, -T

Re: comment: Perl6 vs batch
There are other indications that Windows was designed by the devil, like the line ending format and the fact that they use UTF-16LE instead of UTF-8 in excel. Who the heck uses utf16!

Ah, yes, .rotor may be overkill for this. .batch(3) will do fine as well :-) > On 23 Nov 2019, at 12:34, Simon Proctor wrote: > > If you want to read you lines in groups of 3 then you want batch : > > for @x.lines.batch(3) -> @b > > If you just want the third line and throw away the first I'd probably do a > tail on that. > > for @x.lines.batch(3).map( *.tail ) -> $l > > Note you need to map the tail on each batch of three not slap it on the end. > > > On Sat, 23 Nov 2019, 06:00 ToddAndMargo via perl6-users, > wrote: > Hi All, > > In a "for" loop, what is the syntax for "by 3"? > > for @x.lines by 3 > > In other words, every third line. > > Many thanks, > -T

If you don't want any results with less than 3 lines: for lines.rotor(3) -> @a { dd @a; } If you *do* want results with 3 lines: for lines.rotor(3, :partial) -> @a { dd @a; } Alternately as shown below: for lines -> $x, $y?, $z? { dd $x, $y, $z } Note the question marks to make $y and $z optional: otherwise the last iteration will throw an exception if there were less than 3 lines left. > On 23 Nov 2019, at 12:30, Raymond Dresens wrote: > > Hello, > > This seems possible: > > > my @x = (1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128); > [1 2 3 4 8 16 32 64 128] > > Then: > > > for @x -> $x, $y, $z { $x.say } > 1 > 4 > 32 > > And: > > > for @x -> $x, Any, Any { $x.say } > 1 > 4 > 32 > > ...assigning to 'Any' seems to 'just work'.

Re: for by 3?
If you want to read you lines in groups of 3 then you want batch : for @x.lines.batch(3) -> @b If you just want the third line and throw away the first I'd probably do a tail on that. for @x.lines.batch(3).map( *.tail ) -> $l Note you need to map the tail on each batch of three not slap it on the end.

comment: Perl6 vs batch
Hi All, I broke down and installed Perl6 on my two Windows Virtual Machine: w7 and w-Nein (w10). OH HOLY MOLLY it is easier to program in Perl6 than batch!!! I think batch may have been designed by the devil himself! Okay, maybe not, but I feel stupid I did not do it years ago! -T
