1:43 gomer-nyc: Hi there
15:08 gomer-nyc_: Hi
15:09 Is it possible to supply default values for optional function parameters?
19:12 leafw: question: is there any way to call super.someMethod from a proxied class? The docs say no calls to super. , but there may be other ways perhaps?
19:13 through reflection, the invoke() would end up invoking the overriden method I think, in any case.
19:25 another question ...
19:25 mapping functions to collections is obvious, but to array elements ?
19:25 I'd appreciate a hint here
19:34 but the channel is dead. Oh well.
19:48 no (seq (make-array (. java.lang.Byte TYPE) 100)) unfortunately ..
20:51 hi all
20:51 once more, searching for an answer
20:51 rhickey: what's the question/
20:51 ?
20:51 leafw: I'd appreciate info on whether it's possible at al to map a function to each element of a native array
20:51 such as a byte[] array
20:52 rhickey: in place? no
20:52 leafw: argh
20:52 how do you approach it then?
20:52 looping ?
20:53 rhickey: you could. or, since map produces a seq, you could turn that into another array.
20:54 leafw: I'm doing image processing. Duplicating arrays is undesirable (too largE)
20:54 rhickey: map-array would be a simple function to write
20:55 leafw: about looping ,b ythe way, I can't loop native arrays either - I am not getting the syntax right
20:56 rhickey: you can paste to: http://
20:56 leafw: thanks
20:56 lets try
21:00 I knowvery little lisp unfortunatley, starting ... so the API (loop [bindings & body]) doesn't get me too far at all
21:00 I would expect (loop [i 0 100] ...) where 0=start 100=end
21:05 lisppaste8: leafw pasted "byte array looping" at http://
21:05 leafw: hum nice pastebin system
21:07 why the pasted code fails is beyond me. (aset pix 10 (byte 14)) works just fine.
21:20 rhickey: (dotimes i (count pix)
21:20 (aset pix i (byte 42)))
21:21 leafw: thanks
21:21 and why not aset-byte instaed?
21:22 (loop [i (- (alength pix) 1)] (aset-byte pix i (byte 14))) seems to work too
21:23 rhickey: loop without recur is not right
21:23 leafw: actually no ... no erro,r byt the pixels are not set.
21:24 I see, recur calls he loop agai nwith the iterator manually updated ... urghs
21:26 looks like loop is really a let with a recursion system tied in.
21:26 rhickey: yes, it's recursive looping, not iterative looping
21:27 leafw: a new kind for me.
21:27 thanks for helpingout with these basic questions.
21:27 rhickey: sure
21:30 leafw: I have built a clojure command line as a plugin inside ImageJ so that I can start learning lisp finally, within the context of my everyday lab problems.
21:31 the very first plugin was a modified version of the temp translator from the website, with propernumber format error checking and hint suggestion.
