PMC for Lexical-Scoping Variable Frames

2002-03-15 Thread Shlomi Fish
s gets a bit messier when we assume that variables can be referenced by either their names or IDs and that they can store either INTs, strings or other PMCs. Nevertheless, I'd like to try and write an ad-hoc implementation for Parrot. Does this correspond with the general Parrot philosophy? Any oth

Question: why can't we link against GNU's GMP to provide us with those big number facilities? Is there any reason we need to re-invent the wheel? (except to make Parrot self-contained and non dependent on anything else, which, IMO, is not a very good cause) Regards, S

Proper Tail Recursion

2001-11-14 Thread Shlomi Fish
-defined mechanisms and/or optimizations in Parrot to do so. For instance, we can have a "ret-with-call" opcode. However, isn't it exactly the same as a jump instruction ? What is the current stance on implementing proper tail recursion in perl6? Regards,
