Interpreter

• Various bug fixes related to shapes, types, fills, and optimizations

0.14.0

0.14.0 - 2024-12-20

Language

• Breaking Change: Multi-argument group ⊕ and partition ⊜ no longer do reduction. Instead, multiple groups are passed to the function.
  • The reducing versions were rarely used
  • This new behavior is more useful
• Breaking Change: un ° json no longer attempts to form multidimensional arrays
  • This makes deserializing JSON more consistent
• Breaking Change: fill ⬚ed scan \\ now sets the initial value as well as filling row shapes
  • This behavior is hard to get otherwise
  • Fixes to existing code should be simple
• Breaking Change: obverse ⌅ with a single function now just nullifies the inverse
  • This makes a lot of common under ⍜ patterns much simpler
• Breaking Change: Negative indices to pick ⊡ and select ⊏ now always use a fill value if available
• Stabilize subscripts!
  • They make available a lot of nice functionality
  • Allow negative subscripts
  • Add experimental sided subscripts
• rows ≡, inventory ⍚, and each ∵ now support subscripts
• deshape ♭ now supports subscripts
  • Axes are collapsed to get the given rank
• Deprecate rerank ☇
  • It was basically always used with a static rank, and that functionality has been subsumed by subscripted deshape ♭ and/or the iterating modifiers listed above
  • The dynamic behavior can still be accessed with °⊸(⧻△) (though when you would need this is unclear)
• Add the stencil ⧈ modifier, which is a generalization of windows ◫
  • ⧈∘ is equivalent to windows ◫
  • windows ◫ has been deprecated. All existing uses will continue to work and will be formatted as ⧈∘.
• get, has, and remove now support working on multiple key-value pairs at once
• Deprecate trace ⸮
  • It is equivalent to subscripted stack ?
  • Sequential ?s, which formatted to trace ⸮s, now format to subscripted stack ?
• Stabilize tuples ⧅
• Stabilize sort ⍆
  • Sorting is a very common operation, and it's useful to have such simple access to it
• Stabilize last ⊣
  • Getting the last row is a very common operation
• Stabilize case ⍩
• Add the path modifier, which finds shortest paths
  • Replaces and deprecates astar
  • astar's functionality is still available via path with a function pack
• Add the A₁, A₂, A₃, C₂, C₃, and E₃ constants which are various kinds of adjacency offsets
  • They are great for working with path
• Declared signatures that do not match the inferred signature will now cause a warning rather than an error
  • The function is edited to make the signature correct
• orient ⤸ can now use fill ⬚ to fill in new dimensions
• un ° reduce / (format string) now splits a string by a delimiter
• do ⍢ now runs its functions at least once, even if their signatures are invalid
  • This is helpful when initially setting up a loop
• un ° now works with repeat ⍥ without a repetition count
  • This counts the number of repetitions required to converge
• Add an ε shadowable constant for the machine epsilon
  • You can type it as \\epsilon
  • Other greek letters can also by typed this way
• Add &ep and &epf system functions for easier printing to stderr
• Functions that work with audio such as audio now treat the first axis as samples and the second axis as channels
• Add # Deprecated! semantic comments
• Change backward 𝄈's glyph to 𝄈. Code using ˜ will continue to work and will be formatted as 𝄈.
• Add the experimental or ∨ function
  • It has a useful reduction identity
  • It is also GCD
• Add experimental inline macros
  • Deprecate the experimental stringify and signature modifiers in favor of inline code macros
• Add experimental binary function, which encodes and decodes arrays into a compact binary representation
• Add experimental &b function, which pauses execution and prints the stack
• Remove the previously deprecated member ∊ function
  • As planned, memberof ∊'s glyph has been changed, and the old one will format to ∊.
• Remove the previously deprecated experimental ⟔ coordinate function
• Remove the previously deprecated experimental struct modifier
• Remove the previously deprecated setinv and setund modifiers
• Remove the previously deprecated choose and permute functions
• Remove the previously deprecated experimental ◹ triangle modifier
• Remove the previously deprecated experimental ⑄ chunks function

Interpreter

• The compiler and interpreter have been almost entirely rewritten to use a tree-based execution model rather than a bytecode model
  • This massively simplifies compilation as well as optimizations and the derivation of inverses
  • This should not affect any language semantics
• Improve pattern matching error messages
• Optimize the "root" pattern ⁿ%:1
• Optimize format strings applied to strings or boxed strings
• Optimize common partition ⊜ patterns
• Add an -e/--experimental flag to the uiua eval command to enable experimental features
• Add the uiua check command, which checks that Uiua files compile
• More system functions are now run for output comments
• Improve formatting of more complex arrays with format strings and &p

Website

• Add a new pad setting to show line values to the right of the code
• Add Subscripts page
• Update More Stack Manipulation and More Array Manipulation tutorials to include subscripts
  • Change their titles from "Advanced" to "More"
• Add new Idioms page
