Re: trouble returning a value from sub

I think, and I don't have my computer to hand to double check but I think you want a return before your recursive.call to factors passing in @f. When dealing with recursive functions you need to make sure what you're returning back up the stack. On Thu, 16 Jun 2022, 18:10 Rick Bychowski,

Hi.   Let's say, the RSTAR Linux releases haven't made their way into the official rakudo.org site since a very long time but releases are build since some months again and sooner or later they will show up there again. You can find Rakudo Star, including the Linux RSTAR, builds here: [1]

You need the method object, and you can't get that from $a.test -- Try using the following: when X::AdHoc { say $a.^lookup('test').WHY; # TODO: This is wrong :-( } I've tested it here ( https://replit.com/@Xliff/ThinDutifulExtensions#main.raku) and it works! :) -X On Mon, Jan 17, 2022 at

How to use WHY on a object's method?

Hello Rakuns, How do i access the declarator block of my object method? I'm trying to do this, but it's not working: class A { #|( This is just a test with 3 parameters: * p1 - parameter 1 * p2 - parameter 1 * p2 - parameter 1 ) method test($p1, $p2, $p3) {

Re: Benchmark for Scala, Ruby and Perl

Thanks for the geeks on the lists who pointed out a lot of problems to me. I want to add the description why I want to make this benchmark. And I tried to use mmap() for reading file but I have got no benefits from it. https://blog.cloudcache.net/why-mmap-has-no-significant-effect-in-my-code/

Re: Benchmark for Scala, Ruby and Perl

Thanks Paul. I am surprised that mmap has that huge IO advantages comparing to the classic way. So ruby take more benefit from this mmap calling. Just get learned from your case. Regards On 15.01.2022 17:57, Paul Procacci wrote: Hey John, One more follow up and then it's bedtime for me.

Re: Benchmark for Scala, Ruby and Perl

Sorry, it's 5:00am here and needless to say it's wy past my bedtime and I'm making mistakes. The comparison should have been between both ruby versions ugh. I'll let you play though. Have a great night. On Sat, Jan 15, 2022 at 4:57 AM Paul Procacci wrote: > Hey John, > > One more

Re: Benchmark for Scala, Ruby and Perl

Hey John, One more follow up and then it's bedtime for me. I wanted to further this discussion just a little bit more by implementing the mmap solution that I applied to perl to ruby instead. Now all of a sudden, ruby is much much faster. My ruby source code follows: Goodnight! # ruby -W0

Re: Benchmark for Scala, Ruby and Perl

Hello Paul Do you mean by undef $/ and with <$fh> we can read the file into memory at one time? Yes that would be faster b/c we don't need to read file by each line, which increases the disk IO. Another questions: 1. what's the "truss" command? 2. what's the syntax "<:mmap"? Thank you.
