2025-12-05 10:23:01 +0100 <lucabtz> though honestly idk if it is so trivial to come up with an actual proof, maybe it is
2025-12-05 10:22:24 +0100 <lucabtz> i dont see why associativity wouldnt be satified here because this is just about tiling up the grids to match the bigger grid, if the grids are all equal then associativity is a consequence of associativity of ., if some have dimension 1 it shouldn't matter when you tile them bigger
2025-12-05 10:22:21 +0100 <ski> hm, yea, i think you're right (after pondering the conditions)

2025-12-05 10:19:49 +0100 <ski> (yea .. in terms of `liftA2 (,) :: Applicative i => i a -> i b -> i (a,b)', we're asking whether this operation is associative, up to reassociating the `((a,b),c)' vs. `(a,(b,c))' in the result. it's just that we then have rexpressed this (not "on the nose") associative law in terms of its equivalent condition in terms of `(<*>)')
2025-12-05 10:19:03 +0100 <lucabtz> i still think it is satified by broadcasting, for example say in order you have (w, 1) <*> (1, h) <*> (w, h), associating on the left you have (w, 1) <*> (1, h) = (w, h) and then (w, h) <*> (w, h) = (w, h), on the right (1, h) <*> (w, h) = (w, h) and then (w, 1) <*> (w, h) = (w, h)
2025-12-05 10:17:38 +0100 <ski> anyway, the question is whether in `(M * N) * O' and `M * (N * O)', where `*' is some operation doing this kind of broadcasting, whether `M * N' and then `(M * N) * O' is well-defined is equivalent to `N * O' and then `M * (N * O)' being well-defined
2025-12-05 10:16:53 +0100 <lucabtz> literal associativity of <*> makes no sense because the domains of the operator on the left and right are different
2025-12-05 10:16:16 +0100 <lucabtz> it's not literal associativity of <*> but i get it makes sense to call is associativity
2025-12-05 10:15:38 +0100 <lucabtz> it's okay i understood already from u <*> (v <*> w) = pure (.) <*> u <*> v <*> w

2025-12-05 10:14:47 +0100 <ski> liftA2 (uncurry . f) ia (liftA2 (,) ib ic) = liftA2 (uncurry f) (liftA2 (,) ia ib) ic -- or, with an arbitrary function `f', rather than triples
2025-12-05 10:13:16 +0100 <lucabtz> yeah i get what you mean
2025-12-05 10:13:05 +0100 <ski> liftA2 (\a (b,c) -> (a,b,c)) ia (liftA2 (,) ib ic) = liftA2 (\(a,b) c -> (a,b,c)) (liftA2 (,) ia ib) ic -- same law, in terms of `liftA2', and tuples, might make the name "associativity" more reasonable
2025-12-05 10:12:43 +0100 <ski> (do note that `pure (.) <*> u <*> v <*> w' means `((pure (.) <*> u) <*> v) <*> w', so that that side is left-associated)
2025-12-05 10:10:50 +0100 <lucabtz> if you mean that it does satisfy it i believe, the constraint becomes for each width and height that all the ones that are not equal to each other are 1

2025-12-05 09:55:39 +0100 <lucabtz> though i agree it would make more sense to keep it a separate function
2025-12-05 09:55:18 +0100 <lucabtz> <*> is not associative
2025-12-05 09:55:06 +0100 <lucabtz> im a bit confused by what associative law you are speaking about

2025-12-05 09:45:49 +0100 <ski> (i don't much like this kind of implicit broadcasting)
2025-12-05 09:45:16 +0100 <ski> btw, i'd probably just define a separate function
2025-12-05 09:44:39 +0100 <ski> it'd be annoying, if rewriting a total use, with one of the laws, would give a partial use
2025-12-05 09:43:44 +0100 <ski> (and similarly for the other laws)

2025-12-05 09:42:24 +0100 <ski> if you take assocative law, such that all applications on one side satisfies this condition, do the ones on the other side also satisfy it ?
2025-12-05 09:41:05 +0100 <lucabtz> yep
2025-12-05 09:40:49 +0100 <ski> (m0 == m1 || any (1 ==) [m0,m1]) && (n0 == n1 || any (1 ==) [n0,n1]) -- ?
2025-12-05 09:40:41 +0100 <lucabtz> *instead of equality to 1
2025-12-05 09:40:28 +0100 <lucabtz> technically i suppose you could weaken the constraint with divisibility instead of 1, but it is not like that in numpy
2025-12-05 09:39:53 +0100 <lucabtz> if you have say (w, 1) (w, h) the result is (w, h) and the first one is broadcasted to (w, h) by repeating the row h times over the columns
2025-12-05 09:39:07 +0100 <lucabtz> either widths are equal or some are 1 and same for height
