(Though some other Lisps give 5.0d-324 which is arguably more "right".) 00:17:38 As there's only one bit of precision left when you get to the least-positive-double-float. 00:17:49 <|3b|> ~a matches princ/prin1, and reads as the same number at least 00:18:05 yeah, our minimal printer isn't minimal, and isn't even always correct for denorms 00:24:37 I noticed a neat feature of Python (the language): when you ask for more and more digits of precision it will keep giving them to you until you reach the full decimal expansion of the true rational value of a float. 01:22:50 fe[nl]ix [~quassel@pdpc/supporter/professional/fenlix] has joined #sbcl 01:23:45 gigamonk` [~user@adsl-99-169-82-70.dsl.pltn13.sbcglobal.net] has joined #sbcl 01:25:42 -!- gigamonkey [~user@adsl-99-62-72-78.dsl.pltn13.sbcglobal.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds] 02:06:29 wee. is finally looking sane, and pretty much as fast as the current generator. 02:43:15 -!- gigamonk` is now known as gigamonkey 03:29:51 njm [~njm@68-191-153-240.dhcp.dlth.mn.charter.com] has joined #sbcl 03:40:04 -!- njm [~njm@68-191-153-240.dhcp.dlth.mn.charter.com] has left #sbcl 03:59:02 slyrus [~chatzilla@99-28-163-38.lightspeed.miamfl.sbcglobal.net] has joined #sbcl 04:23:51 attila_lendvai [~attila_le@unaffiliated/attila-lendvai/x-3126965] has joined #sbcl 05:11:32 -!- attila_lendvai [~attila_le@unaffiliated/attila-lendvai/x-3126965] has left #sbcl 06:25:14 attila_lendvai [~attila_le@catv-89-133-168-76.catv.broadband.hu] has joined #sbcl 06:25:14 -!- attila_lendvai [~attila_le@catv-89-133-168-76.catv.broadband.hu] has quit [Changing host] 06:25:14 attila_lendvai [~attila_le@unaffiliated/attila-lendvai/x-3126965] has joined #sbcl 08:33:38 stassats [~stassats@wikipedia/stassats] has joined #sbcl 09:21:48 -!- ASau [~user@95-26-244-67.broadband.corbina.ru] has quit [Quit: off] 09:33:01 prxq [~mommer@mnhm-590c316a.pool.mediaWays.net] has joined #sbcl 10:47:23 attila_lendvai1 [~attila_le@catv-89-133-168-76.catv.broadband.hu] has joined #sbcl 10:47:23 -!- attila_lendvai [~attila_le@unaffiliated/attila-lendvai/x-3126965] has quit [Disconnected by services] 10:47:24 -!- attila_lendvai1 is now known as attila_lendvai 10:47:24 -!- attila_lendvai [~attila_le@catv-89-133-168-76.catv.broadband.hu] has quit [Changing host] 10:47:25 attila_lendvai [~attila_le@unaffiliated/attila-lendvai/x-3126965] has joined #sbcl 11:05:14 -!- prxq [~mommer@mnhm-590c316a.pool.mediaWays.net] has quit [Quit: Leaving] 12:19:00 -!- gigamonkey [~user@adsl-99-169-82-70.dsl.pltn13.sbcglobal.net] has quit [Quit: ERC Version 5.3 (IRC client for Emacs)] 12:38:07 -!- stassats [~stassats@wikipedia/stassats] has quit [Remote host closed the connection] 13:37:37 -!- attila_lendvai [~attila_le@unaffiliated/attila-lendvai/x-3126965] has left #sbcl 14:00:37 % man -l doc/sbcl.1 >/dev/null 14:00:40 :44: a newline character is not allowed in an escape name 14:02:35 homie [~levgue@xdsl-78-35-146-66.netcologne.de] has joined #sbcl 14:38:12 nikodemus [~nikodemus@cs181056239.pp.htv.fi] has joined #sbcl 14:38:12 -!- ChanServ has set mode +o nikodemus 14:41:01 -!- nikodemus [~nikodemus@cs181056239.pp.htv.fi] has quit [Disconnected by services] 14:41:01 nikodemus_ [~nikodemus@cs181056239.pp.htv.fi] has joined #sbcl 14:41:28 nikodemus [~nikodemus@cs181056239.pp.htv.fi] has joined #sbcl 14:41:28 -!- ChanServ has set mode +o nikodemus 14:43:48 tsuru [~user@c-68-53-57-241.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #sbcl 14:54:46 -!- nikodemus [~nikodemus@cs181056239.pp.htv.fi] has quit [Quit: Ex-Chat] 15:04:16 -!- nikodemus_ [~nikodemus@cs181056239.pp.htv.fi] has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds] 15:16:05 nikodemus_ [~nikodemus@87-95-109-46.bb.dnainternet.fi] has joined #sbcl 15:35:43 antgreen [~user@bas3-barrie18-1279561681.dsl.bell.ca] has joined #sbcl 16:07:54 -!- nikodemus_ [~nikodemus@87-95-109-46.bb.dnainternet.fi] has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds] 16:35:03 hargettp [~hargettp@pool-71-174-142-225.bstnma.east.verizon.net] has joined #sbcl 16:37:33 -!- jiacobucci [~jiacobucc@gw-asdl.ae.gatech.edu] has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer] 17:57:27 rpg [~rpg@mpls.sift.info] has joined #sbcl 19:11:56 -!- hargettp [~hargettp@pool-71-174-142-225.bstnma.east.verizon.net] has quit [Quit: Linkinus - http://linkinus.com] 19:17:55 jiacobucci [~jiacobucc@gw-asdl.ae.gatech.edu] has joined #sbcl 19:27:24 blumbri [~blumbri@c-67-181-176-186.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #sbcl 19:53:30 prxq [~mommer@mnhm-590c316a.pool.mediaWays.net] has joined #sbcl 19:58:04 aklt [~aklt@77.75.167.158] has joined #sbcl 19:58:35 Hi, I had the crazy idea of getting started with common lisp and I'm using slimv -- vim slime mode. 19:59:05 aklt: you probably want to be talking on #lisp 19:59:33 I would like to be able to use xref, but keep getting "no source information" when I do.
