hello,
i'm porting the Python slicing (
https://docs.python.org/2/reference/expressions.html#slicings ) to Scheme
Guile and Racket.
examples in Scheme+ :
{#(1 2 3 4 5 6 7)[2 / 5]}
#(3 4 5)
i'm using / instead of : because : is already used by the SRFI 42 Eager
Comprehension
below are my testing examples:
;;; compiled
/Users/mattei/.cache/guile/ccache/3.0-LE-8-4.6/usr/local/share/guile/site/3.0/Scheme+.scm.go
scheme@(guile-user)> {#(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8)[/ / 3]}
$1 = #(1 4 7)
scheme@(guile-user)> {#(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8)[/ / -2]}
$2 = #(8 6 4 2)
scheme@(guile-user)> {"elephant"[2 / 5]}

scheme@(guile-user)> {"abcdefghijkl"[/ / -3]}

$14 = #(7 5 3 1)
scheme@(guile-user)> {"123456789"[/ -3 / -2]}
$15 = "642"
scheme@(guile-user)> {"abcdefghijklmno"[/ 7 / 2]}
$16 = "aceg"

scheme@(guile-user)> {"123456789"[-3 / / 2]}
$22 = "79"
scheme@(guile-user)> {#(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9)[2 / 5 / 1]}
$23 = #(3 4 5)
scheme@(guile-user)> {#(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9)[5 / 2 / -1]}
$24 = #(6 5 4)
scheme@(guile-user)> {#(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9)[2 / 5 / -1]}
$25 = #()
scheme@(guile-user)> {#(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9)[-1 / 5 / -1]}
$26 = #(9 8 7)
scheme@(guile-user)> {#(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9)[-0 / 5 / -1]}
$27 = #()
scheme@(guile-user)> {"0123456789"[5 / 2 / -1]}
$28 = "543"
scheme@(guile-user)> {"0123456789"[5 / / -1]}
$29 = "543210"
scheme@(guile-user)> {"0123456789"[5 / 0 / -1]}
$30 = "54321"
the syntax is derived from Python syntax:
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][-3::2]
[7, 9]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][-3::-2]
[7, 5, 3, 1]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][3::-2]
[4, 2]
"abcdefghijkl"[: : -3]
'lifc'
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][:5:-1]
[9, 8, 7]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][:5:1]
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][0:5:-1]
[]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][-0:5:-1]
[]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][-1:5:-1]
[9, 8, 7]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][:5:-1]
[9, 8, 7]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][10:5:-1]
[9, 8, 7]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][2:5:-1]
[]
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][5:2:-1]
[6, 5, 4]
[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][5:2:-1]
[5, 4, 3]
[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][5::-1]
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0]
[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9][5:0:-1]
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
for now it works in simple expressions,soon it will be implemented for
expressions with LHS and RHS like {container1[2 / 5] <- container2[7 / 9]}
for this reason all will be in the next version of Scheme+
https://github.com/damien-mattei/Scheme-PLUS-for-Guile
with other features too.
