0.0.21

0.0.21 - 2023-10-21

Language

• Massive Change - Functions are no longer first-class values. This has many implications:
  • Functions can no longer be put in arrays or manipulated as stack values
  • Inline functions can now only appear as modifier arguments or bindings
  • call ! has been removed, as there is nothing on the stack to call
  • Modules have been reworked. &i now handles both loading a module from a file and importing items from that module.
  • --- scopes are now test scopes. ~~~ scopes have been removed.
  • Remove use, as it is no longer necessary
  • Boxes still work as normal, but are now their own type distinct from functions
  • Remove sig, as everything that can be on the stack now has the same signature
• Add new syntax for defining custom modifiers
• Add new syntax for calling a function from a list of functions
• Add the pack ⊐ modifier, which calls its function and implicitly boxes/unboxes values
• Add the combinate ◳ modifier, which is a rank-generic version of table ⊞
• fold ∧ is now rank-generic and requires a rank list
• Add the tribute ≐ modifier, which is a flipped version of distribute ∺
• Change level ≑'s glyph to reflect its relationship with each ∵, rows ≡, distribute ∺, and tribute ≐. Code using ⍚ will continue to work and will be formatted as ≑.

• Change trace ⸮'s glyph to let surface ~ use ~.
• Change match ≍'s glyph to avoid confusion with the new ocean functions' glyphs. Code using ≅ will continue to work and will be formatted as ≍.
• Stack signatures found to be incorrect at runtime produce an error
• Dyadic math operations now work with under ⍜ even if both arguments are outside under ⍜'s function
• Some mathematical functions that previously did not work with invert ⍘ and under ⍜ when accompanied by flip ∶ now do
