2019-04-16Play around with a vector typeHEADmasterAdrian Kummerlaender
Using _vectors_ as fundamental datatype could make for a really neat experience. Imagine e.g.: * fundamental arithmetic operations that apply to both vectors and scalars * implicit component-wise or vector-wise operations * scalar values as 1D vectors * higher order functions to manipulate those vectors * `map` function that applies a (quoted?) word to all vector elements and returns the result * efficient parallel operations * a rich library of vector manipulation functions * or even: matrices as a fundamental datatype? * problem: probably harder to conveniently enter via a 1-D repl * sound more and more like a RPN version of APL… Back to reality, here is what this prototype actually adds: * new `DList!int` based datatype alongside the existing int, string and bool types * basic support for printing such values in a readable fashion * new fundamental `:` word that constructs a vector of two elements * `1 2 :` yields `[1, 2]` * adapted `+` and `*` to support component-wise operations * `1 2 : 3 +` yields `[4, 5]`
