[Pharo-users] GSoC 2019: Extending DataFrame library
Hey Pharo-users! I am Atharva, a final-year undergraduate studying Computer Engineering in India. I have been selected in GSoC 2019 for the DataFrame library, and over the summer, additional functionality to the library will be added. You can go over the summary of my proposal over at https://khare.dev/posts/2019/05/gsoc-2019-extending-dataframe-library-for-pharo-consortium/, or you can view the detailed proposal at https://khare.dev/misc/Pharo_GSOC_2019_Dataframe.pdf. I am interested in knowing your feedback over the proposal, specifically on functionalities that are planned, and the ones that you would like to be added. Documentation will also be a major part of this project, including examples - let me know if you have a specific use-case, in which you would like to see how DataFrames can be used. :) You can track this project at this link: https://khare.dev/tags/gsoc-progress/, or see monthly progress here: https://khare.dev/tags/gsoc-summary/. Feel free to reach out! Atharva Khare
Re: [Pharo-users] Bloc of code in tiers programming language
Hey, I think in python, you use Lambda Expressions. Here is how I would do it in python3: import math f = lambda x: math.cos(x) + x d_f = lambda x: (f(x + 1e-8) - f(x)) * 1e8 On Wed, May 15, 2019 at 6:33 PM Hilaire wrote: > Hi, > > We, Smalltalkers, use bloc of code as easily as we breathe air. > > I am writing an article on Smalltalk programming for a French > mathematics teachers magazine. > > To illustrate the simplicity of Smalltalk, I would like to compare how > the bloc of code 'f' and 'df' below will be implemented in Javascript > and Python: > > > f := [ :x | x cos + x ]. > df := [ :x | (f value: x + 1e-8) - (f value: x) * 1e8]. > > Here f is a way to implement a function and df its derivate. > > Do some of you knows how it will be written in Javascript and Python > with their own ad-hoc anonymous function? > > Thanks > > Hilaire > > -- > Dr. Geo > http://drgeo.eu > > > >
