I always imagined racket2 as racket with a few minor backward incompatible changes, for example make `length` generic, drop `struct`, remove guarantees about freshness of results. I.E. Most of https://github.com/racket/racket/wiki/Racket2 I also don't like that `syntax-property` is used to get

Re: [racket-users] Re: The case, and a proposal, for elegant syntax in #lang racket2

The expander in racket adds something equivalent to [else (void)] if there is no else clause. (Try an example with the Macro Stepper.) So an explicit else clause would not change the speed of the programs. In some cases the compiler can prove that the else part is not necessary and drop it,

Re: [racket-users] Re: The case, and a proposal, for elegant syntax in #lang racket2

[I remember an old discussion about this, but I can't find the message.] For small number of clauses, case is expanded to a bunch of if. When there are more than ¿12? it may be use a hash table or binary search. It has a few tricks:

Re: [racket-users] detecting a recursive call?

If you don't want to use the package or you want other criteria for stooping, I think the correct way to do this are continuation marks, but an easier but more inefficient way is using a parameter (so it is thread safe). ;- #lang racket (define recursion-level (make-parameter 0)) (define (f

It looks like an error to me. I made a bug report in https://github.com/racket/scribble/issues/211 because it is easy to track the problem there. You can subscribe to the issue to get any update, or I can try to remember to post any (big) update here. Gustavo On Sat, Sep 14, 2019 at 2:05 PM Jos

Another solution: If you are inside DrRacket, you can use the button "Check Syntax". Gustavo On Fri, Feb 21, 2020 at 2:13 PM Marc Kaufmann wrote: > Hi, > > the way I currently check my web server is by simply running `racket > server.rkt` on the command line. However, this also launches the

It is an internal function of the math package https://github.com/racket/math/blob/cdc64390f1e7b75de9575a91f0ec3a31f7878530/math-lib/math/private/bigfloat/mpfr.rkt#L587that is used to show bigfloats. I can't reproduce the error in Windows, but it doesn't look like an error that is platform

Code Jam is in a few days, but Racket is not available :(. Anyone know how difficult is to add a new language to the list? (Probably for 2021.) Gustavo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop

Re: [racket-users] Questions about working on DrRacket and gui

I try to encourage people to participate, but be careful because this task is probably too big for a first contribution. GUI is difficult, DrRacket has a lot of moving parts, and opening DrRacket inside DrRacket is possible but weird. I think the guess of Matthew is correct, it´s a problem with

The human friendly version of the bytecode is explained in https://docs.racket-lang.org/raco/decompile.html?q=decompile#%28mod-path._compiler%2Fdecompile%29 . The human friendly version looks similar to the expanded version of a program that you get with the Macro Debugger (when the macros are not

Thanks for the report. I think the fix is correct, but this is a part of the code I don't use too much. I made a pull request, https://github.com/racket/racket/pull/3785 so someone can confirm it's correct and the message is not lost. If you have an account in Github you can subscribe to this PR
