Re: [racket-users] Plot Problem: No Line; Bounds not found

While I completely agree that testing one's function is the best practical advice here, it also seems worth an improvement to plot. Perhaps, in addition to saying "could not determine sensible plot bounds", it could also say something like "because there were no points" and perhaps even follow up

Thanks for the help to my specific problem. More generally, what should have clued me in to a contract or type error when the only message received had to do with y plot bounds? Just looking for practical advice to help me figure out things on my own going forward. On Tuesday, June 15, 2021

[racket-users] Teaching Racket to kids experiences, syllabus ideas, etc

Has anyone taught racket to kids, like middle school and above? I see some really basic articles when googling around, but i was wondering if anyone has experience with this. Would you use the picturing-programs book? I see it's built into Racket, which is nice. I was thinking of something

Hi! I've read the issue ticket and that sure sounds like the problem! I've installed 8.1.0.7 and I'll see if that addresses it. Thanks very much! On Tuesday, 15 June 2021 at 08:44:27 UTC-4 Matthew Flatt wrote: > Hi, and thanks for the report! > > That sounds like a bug that has been fixed for

Hi, and thanks for the report! That sounds like a bug that has been fixed for the next release, especially if you opened any HTML page (such as documentation) from DrRacket. For more information on a previous report and the repair: https://github.com/racket/racket/issues/3832 Snapshot

[racket-users] Racket v8.1 [cs] -- Memory leaks with IDE in Win10

Hi! I'm having problems with memory consumption in Racket v8.1 [cs], 64 bit on Windows 10. I left the IDE running overnight with a one short file open in the editor (less than 30 lines) but nothing actually running and in the morning, I found it it had consumed over 20GB of RAM (see attached

[racket-users] Plot Problem: No Line; Bounds not found

I was starting to explore plot and I am getting a behavior I do not understand. plot doesn't seem to be able to figure out the bounds for something that seems pretty straight-forward. When I give bounds as an optional argument I don't see the line I expect to see. Can anyone provide me some
