Array rotate

2009-06-12 Thread yary
I am tickled pink to see an Array rotate method in the settings spec S032, as I was thinking of writing up a little discussion on the very topic. Has there been discussion on using array rotate on multi-dimensional arrays? Being able to pass in a vector as the amount to rotate would be useful.

I think any 1D op could be transformed to do the right thing on a multidimensional array, with some sort or hyperop or reduction transform. Rotate, reverse, even add/subtract can be told do your thing along this vector and return a usefully dimensioned result. Need to work on other things at the

Ok, There's one thing that is not clear in the thread, which is when an array is multidimensional or not... For instance: @a = (1, 2, 3; 4, 5, 6; 7, 8, 9); Will produce a flatten array, because list assignment causes flattening, so the dimensionality was lost. It is important to remember that

We also need to consider the dimension of referentiality. I can see three levels here. Given @a.mung the .mung could return A) a modified @a (treat @a as mutable) B) a new array (treat @a as immutable) C) a remapped array whose elements refer back to @a's elements Currently
