2024-05-12 10:16:05 +0200 <sandbag> bummer. how do I send code snippets in a readable form then?
2024-05-12 10:16:12 +0200 <mauke> it's all plain (very plain) text and some client-side extras, like recognizing URLs
2024-05-12 10:16:22 +0200 <mauke> external paste sites
2024-05-12 10:16:34 +0200 <mauke> like our topic says: Paste code/errors: https://paste.tomsmeding.com
2024-05-12 10:16:55 +0200 <sandbag> yes! sorry for not looking at the top :)
2024-05-12 10:17:09 +0200 <mauke> don't worry, no one looks there :-)
2024-05-12 10:17:50 +0200 <mauke> as a general rule, don't paste into IRC; use a paste site and give us the link to your post
2024-05-12 10:18:02 +0200 <sandbag> got it!
2024-05-12 10:19:37 +0200 <mauke> hmm... looks like #haskell doesn't filter color codes, so you could annoy everyone by putting random colors in your text

2024-05-12 10:47:38 +0200 <sandbag> https://paste.tomsmeding.com/CFWXtmFm, when i define 'html_ = el "html" content', it gives me an error. why? shouldn't el take 2 arguments?

2024-05-12 10:48:57 +0200 <mauke> what's the error message?
2024-05-12 10:50:07 +0200 <mauke> in the playground, I get: Main.hs:5:19: error: Variable not in scope: content :: String

2024-05-12 10:50:37 +0200 <sandbag> yeah
2024-05-12 10:50:47 +0200 <sandbag> that's what I get
2024-05-12 10:50:49 +0200 <mauke> which makes sense to me. 'content' is not defined anywhere
2024-05-12 10:51:13 +0200 <mauke> did you mean: html_ content = el "html" content
2024-05-12 10:51:29 +0200 <sandbag> oh yes, sorr
2024-05-12 10:52:05 +0200 <sandbag> that works as well, I got confused. but if you remove the variable, that will work too
2024-05-12 10:52:28 +0200 <sandbag> el needs 2 arguments, and I have given it only one
2024-05-12 10:52:45 +0200 <mauke> 2-argument functions are a scam
2024-05-12 10:52:54 +0200 <mauke> all haskell functions really only take 1 argument
2024-05-12 10:53:14 +0200 <mauke> a "two-argument function" is a function (of one argument) that returns another function (of one argument)
2024-05-12 10:53:47 +0200 <sandbag> but it still combines 2 arguments into one right? so initially it was 2 arguments
2024-05-12 10:53:53 +0200 <mauke> f x y really means (f x) y
2024-05-12 10:54:23 +0200 <mauke> it is the function you get from f x applied to an argument, y
2024-05-12 10:54:37 +0200 <sandbag> alright, but how does el function know where to get "content" if I did not pass it?
2024-05-12 10:55:00 +0200tromp(~textual@92-110-219-57.cable.dynamic.v4.ziggo.nl) (Quit: My iMac has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…)
2024-05-12 10:55:07 +0200 <mauke> html_ content = el "html" content -- the original definition, is the same as:
2024-05-12 10:55:16 +0200 <mauke> html_ = \content -> (el "html") content
2024-05-12 10:55:48 +0200 <sandbag> i meant html_ = el "html"
2024-05-12 10:56:06 +0200 <mauke> which says: html_ is defined as a function (of one argument, content) that applies (el "html") to that argument
2024-05-12 10:56:18 +0200 <mauke> which means it is functionally equivalent to just el "html"
2024-05-12 10:56:30 +0200 <mauke> because all it does is forward its argument to another function
2024-05-12 10:56:54 +0200 <mauke> fundamentally, it's like writing 'f = g' instead of 'f x = g x'
2024-05-12 10:56:57 +0200 <mauke> it comes to the same thing
2024-05-12 10:57:09 +0200 <sandbag> your snippet makes sense. so the one I sent is similar?
2024-05-12 10:57:58 +0200 <sandbag> im new to functional programming. forgive me for any kind of silly questions :)
2024-05-12 10:58:17 +0200 <mauke> just as in 'f x = g x' you can "cancel" the x on both sides, so in 'html_ content = (el "html") content' you can cancel the content on both sides
2024-05-12 10:59:44 +0200 <sandbag> ah, that makes sense. so i can get away by not passing arguments to some middle function which points to a top function which has the same argument

2024-05-12 11:00:12 +0200 <mauke> doesn't even have to be "middle" or "top"
2024-05-12 11:00:43 +0200 <sandbag> oh, could be any function?
2024-05-12 11:01:00 +0200 <mauke> any time you have a function whose outermost expression (in the function body) is a function application
2024-05-12 11:01:20 +0200 <mauke> well, and the thing it's applying the (inner) function to is the argument of the (outer) function
2024-05-12 11:01:27 +0200 <sandbag> in that manner, doesn't that eliminate the need of arguments then?
2024-05-12 11:01:27 +0200 <mauke> \x -> (... anything here ...) x
2024-05-12 11:01:46 +0200 <mauke> not completely
2024-05-12 11:02:00 +0200 <mauke> consider \x -> f x x
2024-05-12 11:02:21 +0200 <mauke> here we use the argument x not just as the last argument to some other function
2024-05-12 11:02:44 +0200 <sandbag> yeah
2024-05-12 11:02:53 +0200 <mauke> or even just \x -> f x 42
2024-05-12 11:03:10 +0200 <mauke> you can't directly get the 'x' out of the middle of an expression
2024-05-12 11:03:23 +0200 <sandbag> so, if you are referencing or using some other function, at that time arguments aren't required
2024-05-12 11:03:38 +0200euleritian(~euleritia@ip-185-104-138-28.ptr.icomera.net)
2024-05-12 11:03:38 +0200 <mauke> but it turns out you can always do it if you allow some simple helper functions
2024-05-12 11:03:57 +0200 <sandbag> true
2024-05-12 11:04:19 +0200 <mauke> commonly known as S and K, defined as: K x y = x; S x y z = (x z) (y z)
2024-05-12 11:04:40 +0200 <mauke> and now you can write all functions without arguments :-)
2024-05-12 11:04:43 +0200 <sandbag> looks like a very complex math equation :|
2024-05-12 11:04:48 +0200 <sandbag> and i suck at math

2024-05-12 11:06:21 +0200 <mauke> or in our case, to eliminate the need for naming arguments in lambda functions
2024-05-12 11:06:41 +0200 <sandbag> that's interesting
2024-05-12 11:07:54 +0200 <sandbag> btw, completely offtopic but is ocaml similar to haskell or completely different?
2024-05-12 11:08:02 +0200 <mauke> pretty similar in many ways
2024-05-12 11:08:53 +0200 <sandbag> ah, that's great. i will pick it up after writing some haskell
2024-05-12 11:08:56 +0200 <mauke> very similar syntax and type system
2024-05-12 11:09:39 +0200 <mauke> but not lazy and not pure (ad-hoc side effects allowed everywhere)
2024-05-12 11:10:14 +0200 <[Leary]> The MLs do share Haskell's parametric polymorphism and some syntax, but Haskell being both pure and lazy is somewhat of an island; there are no widely used programming languages that are genuinely similar.
2024-05-12 11:10:14 +0200 <sandbag> functional languages do look a bit similar to python (mostly syntax and less amount of code). if you look at C or Go, you are writing a lot of code. but in python or haskell, it's less
2024-05-12 11:10:51 +0200 <mauke> depends on the task and the language
2024-05-12 11:10:59 +0200 <sandbag> for python, I can understand because of lots of abstraction. is it similar in haskell?
2024-05-12 11:11:28 +0200 <sandbag> [Leary]: true
2024-05-12 11:12:35 +0200 <sandbag> mauke: absolutely.
2024-05-12 11:12:49 +0200 <mauke> I'd say what python and haskell have in common is fairly high-level abstractions (no need for explicit or manual memory allocation, for example) and an ecosystem of reusable modules
2024-05-12 11:13:07 +0200 <mauke> which also applies to perl
2024-05-12 11:14:51 +0200 <sandbag> mauke: yeah, perl as well. so is it mostly from C or some other language?
2024-05-12 11:15:19 +0200 <mauke> to me, haskell is unique because you can stack abstractions on top of each other to create absolutely brain-breaking code in 3 or 4 lines
2024-05-12 11:16:06 +0200 <mauke> java is also famous for being needlessly verbose
2024-05-12 11:16:12 +0200 <sandbag> oh, that's interesting
2024-05-12 11:16:43 +0200 <sandbag> mauke: absolutely! java is extremely verbose
2024-05-12 11:17:38 +0200 <sandbag> i never really understood the importance of OOP. it is just there to complicate things

2024-05-12 12:50:33 +0200 <Guest_Plonker> I'm really intrigued by the idea of learning Haskell, but i'm a software engineering minimalist and the compiler on my linux distro package manager wants to pull in well over a GB of libraries and other programs. Has anyone got advice for getting that figure down to a couple hundred MB at most?
2024-05-12 12:52:15 +0200 <mauke> ghc just is that chonky
2024-05-12 12:52:39 +0200 <mauke> you could checkout hugs, but that hasn't been maintained in a decade or so
2024-05-12 12:52:57 +0200 <mauke> there's also microhs, but no idea how production ready that is
