Re: spectest fail

Re: Language design

I like the explanation of how Rats solve a class of rounding errors, 0.3 - (0.2 + 0.1) equals exactly 0 for example. On the other hand, it's still a compromise that's shifting closer to correctness, fixing a bunch of potential bugs, but not all in that class: Rakudo: > say 2 - (sqrt 2) ** 2 -4.440

I added a test (fudged 'skip') to S12-attributes/instance.t with commit https://github.com/perl6/roast/commit/dbf53cb4b1 AFAIU this inconsistency stems from using nqp::decont on attributes given to .new (in src/core/Mu.pm), but not doing so on attributes given to .clone. I added a PR (https://g
