Re: [Factor-talk] Quick Question For Chris Double

2012-09-30 Thread John Benediktsson

 Given these caveats, here’s an introductory list of topics (in no
 particular order) I would propose to cover.   Any feedback on suitability
 and valuable additions/deletions would be greatly appreciated:

 Defining by combination in Factor and effective use of Higher Order
 Functions

 Partial parameterization and Currying
 Effective use of Pattern matching
 Effective alternation (if/else, switch, etc.)
 Iteration in Factor
 Induction and Recursion
 Lists, Tuples, Records and Arrays in Factor
 Effective use of named stack parameters and local variables
 Overloading – effective use of Factor’s Generics
 List and array comprehensions and lazy sequences in Factor
 Creating and using effective algebraic data structures
 **


I think this would be a nice structure, there are probably bits and pieces
of these sections in the Factor documentation (for example, the Factor
cookbook http://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-cookbook.html or The
languagehttp://docs.factorcode.org/content/article-handbook-language-reference.html
 articles).



 Sorry about the long post.  It seemed potentially worthwhile, however.


I agree!

[Factor-talk] Quick Question For Chris Double

2012-08-24 Thread Michael Clagett

Chris -- I'm spending some time going back through various key bloggers' 
contributions and am working through some of yours at the moment.  Back in 
December of 2006 in one of your articles on Parser Combinators you reference a 
Chapter 5 on Parser Combinators from some larger work.  This is a nice article 
and it leads to wonder what the source is that it is taken from and whether the 
surrounding chapters are any good and worth reading as well. Your thoughts?

I that that was this chapter:

http://www.bluishcoder.co.nz/II.05.ParserCombinators.pdf

It was from Part II of a book on the Clean programming language.
Unfortunately it seems to no longer be available according to:

http://wiki.clean.cs.ru.nl/Functional_Programming_in_Clean

Luckily it's rare for things to disappear completely from the net:

http://www.mmnt.net/db/0/0/ftp.cs.kun.nl/pub/CSI/SoftwEng.FunctLang/papers/cleanbook

The case studies are a good read.

Chris.

Thanks much.  In this age of erroneous credit reports, that never 
disappearing aspect of the web is definitely a double-edged sword.
