Re: Probabilistic programming anyone?

[hyang]

Looks great. Could I use this to implement something like a Gibbs Sampler?

Another question: is there a particular reason why the code of Anglican is 
hosted on BitBucket with read only access for outsider, whereas the 
examples are on Github? Does that mean that you do not anticipate 
contributions to the language from the outside? I saw the license is GPL 
though.

[ANN] editscript: a diffing library for Clojure data

[hyang]

Hello,

I am happy to make available a diffing/patching library for Clojure data 
structures. 

https://github.com/juji-io/editscript

Two flavors of diffing algorithms are provided, with very different 
performance characteristics, suitable for different applications. 

* One optimizing diffing algorithm aimed to reduce the size of diffs. It is 
an A* based graph search algorithm that is optimized for speed, though much 
slower than the next one, it is still practical.
* Another is a straightforward tree walking algorithm that is about two 
orders of magnitude faster, but produce suboptimal results.

Hope this library will be of some use for someone. Comments, suggestions 
and contributions are also welcome.

Re: [ANN] editscript: a diffing library for Clojure data

[hyang]

My readme specifically mentioned https://github.com/friemen/diffit, where I 
said:

>...The same sequence diffing algorithm is also implemented in diffit 
. Using their benchmark, our 
implementation has slightly better performance due to more optimizations. 
Keep in mind that our algorithm also handles nested Clojure data 
structures. ...

That is to say, diffit only does map and vector diffing *separately*, so 
you cannot really use it as a *Clojure data structure* diffing library. 
Hope this helps.

Cheers.
