Rakudo is an implementation of Perl 6 on the Moar Virtual Machine[^1], the Java Virtual Machine and the Parrot Virtual Machine. The tarball for this release is available from http://rakudo.org/downloads/rakudo/. Please note: This announcement is not for the Rakudo Star distribution[^2] --- it's announcing a new release of the compiler only. For the latest Rakudo Star release, see http://rakudo.org/downloads/star/. The Rakudo Perl compiler follows a monthly release cycle, with each release named after a Perl Mongers group. This release is named after Minsk, the capital and largest city of Belarus. Some of the changes in this release are outlined below: * Many optimizations in both rakudo and the underlying VMs. * remove speed penalty of large ranges in character classes * quote words syntax splits on breakable space only * Add HyperWhatever / ** * ? is finally recognized as the empty set * If the LOLLY envar is set, have (;;), [;;], etc., turn into LoLs. Otherwise, parsefail * Add SEQ(a; b) to emulate the old behavior of (a; b) * Make &infix: many times faster * NaN === NaN (but still NaN != NaN) * fix multi-dimensional slice assignment * can now call exit() in END blocks without hanging or affecting END block execution These are only some of the changes in this release. For a more detailed list, see "docs/ChangeLog". The development team thanks all of our contributors and sponsors for making Rakudo Perl possible, as well as those people who worked on Parrot, the Perl 6 test suite, MoarVM and the specification. The following people contributed to this release: Elizabeth Mattijsen, Tobias Leich, Jonathan Worthington, Alexander Moquin, Larry Wall, Rob Hoelz, Jonathan Scott Duff, Will "Coke" Coleda, Timo Paulssen, Pepe Schwarz, Moritz Lenz, Carlin, sergot, Carl M?sak, Geoff Broadwell If you would like to contribute, see http://rakudo.org/how-to-help, ask on the perl6-compiler на perl.org mailing list, or ask on IRC #perl6 on freenode. The next release of Rakudo (#80), is scheduled for September 18, 2014. A list of the other planned release dates and code names for future releases is available in the "docs/release_guide.pod" file. A Rakudo development release typically occurs a few days (often two) after the third Tuesday of each month. On behalf of the development team, we encourage you to enjoy the new release, try awesome stuff, have the appropriate amount of fun, and get back to us with feedback. [^1]: See http://moarvm.org/ [^2]: What's the difference between the Rakudo compiler and the Rakudo Star distribution? The Rakudo compiler is a compiler for the Perl 6 language. Nothing else. The Rakudo Star distribution is the Rakudo compiler plus a selection of useful Perl 6 modules, a module installer, the most recent incarnation of the "Using Perl 6" book, and other software that can be used with the Rakudo compiler to enhance its utility. Rakudo Star is meant for early adopters who wish to explore what's possible with Rakudo Perl 6 and provide feedback on what works, what doesn't, and what else they would like to see included in the distribution. -- Will "Coke" Coleda ----------- следущая часть ----------- Вложение в формате HTML было извлечено… URL: From alyaxey.yaskevich на gmail.com Fri Aug 22 04:05:42 2014 From: alyaxey.yaskevich на gmail.com (Alyaxey Yaskevich) Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2014 14:05:42 +0300 Subject: [Minsk-pm] Fwd: Announce: Rakudo Perl 6 compiler, Development Release #79 ("Minsk") In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Забавно :) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
