There is a `pow` function in core.matrix, that computes powers over whole arrays at the same time. Tests / patches to improve this always welcome. On Tuesday, 3 June 2008 16:55:15 UTC+8, Jon wrote: > > As I could not find a ** function in boot.clj, I wrote this one: > > (defn ** > "nth

I share the same unease. I haven't quite fully been able to articulate all the reasons, but here are the things that concern me most: 1) Completing the API for data access with the representation This is my biggest issue. Good practice IMHO is to keep APIs abstracted from underlying implementat

Re: How is the emphasis of “data over code” different than the XML advocacy of the early 2000s?

I think the message is 'data doesn't have to be code' not 'code should be expressed in data' which is significantly different. XML went wrong because people tried to write code in XML. Nobody (I think) is saying explicitly that we should write code, logic etc. as data only that there is no need to

Re: How is the emphasis of “data over code” different than the XML advocacy of the early 2000s?

I see the same issues/feel the same pain, but I attribute it much more to dynamic typing than data. Changing the API is always going to be expensive but without typing we pretty much to do it without tool support. Even in Java and the magic of IDEs there is still pain - changing the return type of

Re: Counting nodes in two seperate subtrees

This solution will be quite slow for large N (which is height of the tree). Even more, you don't have to build and/or traverse a tree to solve this problem at all. Hint: number of nodes in full binary tree of height k is 2^{k+1} - 1. On Tue, Feb 2, 2016 at 8:40 PM, Frank Castellucci wrote: > >

Re: How is the emphasis of “data over code” different than the XML advocacy of the early 2000s?

I do think the whole "code is data" thing is a bit overstated. The earliest computers used paper tape for data records: At Bletchley Park, the "data" (ciphertext to be broken) was encoded onto the paper tape in the photo. The "code" was hardwired into the design of the machine & its electronics,

Re: How is the emphasis of “data over code” different than the XML advocacy of the early 2000s?

XML is data, but its data that thwarts easy manipulation from a programming language. It doesn't cleanly map onto computational concepts. Quick: how many ways can you represent key-value pairs in XML? Of course, its also a disaster from an efficiency point of view, since there is basically only 1

While there is no reader syntax for the empty symbol, I agree that the StringIndexOutOfBoundsException is wonky and should be fixed.

Joining the "dump on XML" bandwagon, I believe that adoption of RDF and OWL a decade ago was greatly hindered by the W3C's decision to embrace XML as the serialization mechanism. I suspect I wasn't the only semantic web hacker to adopt the much simpler N3 and turtle notations for human consumpt
