Reed subject: Numeric Semantics summary: |- Earlier, Luke Palmer asked for a clear definition of when math should use floating points and when it should be integer-based. In response, Darren Duncan highlighted a [recent #perl6 discussion](http://colabti.de/irclogger/irclogger_log/perl6?date=2006-12-31) on the topic. He proposed distinct operators to allow users to explicitly choose the math mode. Jonathan Lang mentioned that in the one other instance where there were type-specific versions of a common operator, a third 'generic' version was required. Dr. Ruud suggested giving numerics multiple faces. More recently, Larry Wall responded to the thread, adding his thoughts and musing on whether standard Perl should include convenience operators like `idiv` or if there should simply be pragmatic support for them. A great deal of discussion followed. - date_from: 1167943480 date_to: 1167943480 hidden: commit message_id: 20070104214432.1DD7ACBA1B@x12.develooper.com posters: - email: larry@cvs.perl.org name: larry subject: '[svn:perl6-synopsis] r13510 - doc/trunk/design/syn' summary: '' - date_from: 1167944862 date_to: 1167944862 hidden: typo correction message_id: 20070104220734.70DD8CBA1B@x12.develooper.com posters: - email: larry@cvs.perl.org name: larry subject: '[svn:perl6-synopsis] r13511 - doc/trunk/design/syn' summary: '' title: Language - name: perl6-internals threads: - date_from: 1165458644 date_to: 1167860490 hidden: 'seems to be a discussion between a few people, not of general interest' message_id: 20061207023035.E2574CBA1B@x12.develooper.com messages: - da43c2e0612061922i4f3204ffv3bf61f3b571803b4@mail.gmail.com - 20070103154317.GF80469@plum.flirble.org - 200701032219.24073.lt@toetsch.at - 20070103214121.GG80469@plum.flirble.org - 200701031059.25843.chromatic@wgz.org - 20070103184609.GB18473@kirk.peters.homeunix.org posters: - email: allison@cvs.perl.org name: allison - email: lee.duhem@gmail.com name: Lee Duhem - email: nick@ccl4.org name: Nicholas Clark - email: lt@toetsch.at name: Leopold Toetsch - email: chromatic@wgz.org name: chromatic - email: steve@fisharerojo.org name: Steve Peters subject: '[svn:parrot-pdd] r16036 - trunk/docs/pdds/clip' summary: '' - date_from: 1167634610 date_to: 1167634610 hidden: ~ message_id: rt-3.6.HEAD-1814-1167634603-1377.41157-72-0@perl.org posters: - email: parrotbug-followup@parrotcode.org name: Lee Duhem rt_ticket: 'perl #41157' subject: '[perl #41157] [PATCH] Fix a typo in t/op/cmp-nonbranch.t ' summary: |- In ticket , Lee Duhem supplied a patch to correct a typographical error. - date_from: 1167634727 date_to: 1167790906 hidden: ~ message_id: rt-3.6.HEAD-1834-1167634719-924.41158-72-0@perl.org messages: - 1d9a3f400701020652t4ac0c430u338fe219cae2f473@mail.gmail.com - 20070103023159.GB5974@gmail.com posters: - email: parrotbug-followup@parrotcode.org name: Lee Duhem - email: jerry.gay@gmail.com name: jerry gay rt_ticket: 'perl #41158' subject: '[perl #41158] [BUG] Here Docs in test C cause t/op/cmp-nonbranch.t abnormal exit ' summary: |- Lee Duhem reported an error in a test; this was done in ticket .
