Well, it means a fetch by pad entry rather than use of a cached PMC
pointer, but that's OK by me.
I have a solution for this that I'm p

I was also wondering if the join syntax be extended in a way that it can
support preffix and suffix... what i have in mind ... not necesary but :
#pair
join ($prefix => $suffix), @ary;
so :
my $select = join (qq{} => '

Iterators haven't been defined yet, so it's hard to tell.
For map and grep, it's certainly feasible, depending on their implementation
- although neither are truly iterators.

While waiting for Parrot (dammit, I took the wrong week off), I've been
scanning the various documents and samples which have been floating
around on the list. Is there a document describing Parrot syntax yet?
Or is that a "will be released on monday" thing as well?

Here's the assembly PDD. Changes to it to come, of course.

Parrot assembly language

A thought I had: if variable-width encodings are so difficult because
it's hard to index into them by character, why don't we break them up
ourselves?

hi,
I see that it was mentioned that Perl5 is fast than Java, Python etc... and
was wondering is there any comparison how-much, if ? and if why ? and if we
know the reason can we exploit it further ... and similar...
And does really Perl6 will be faster. how much u expect ?
Thanx

Funny, but I still think TODO or

If one of our stated goals is Unicode support (even for the source itself -
that's what I meant by "everywhere": source, input

Actually there were some tests done, can't recall where now, though by a
trusted source. I will be digging it up in my email and emailing it to the
list. There were a few languages tested including Perl, C, C++, Java (can't
remember if Python was there). Perl came in in second place after C. Ye

Hey, folks.
I'm going to be giving the world's second public parrot demo at this
month's Boston.pm meeting. It's Tuesday the 11th at 7 PM, give or take, at
the Boston.com building in (who'd've thought) Boston. :) If you're
interested in coming, make sure to RSVP to Ronald Kimball,
