  • laurent_r commented on Perl Weekly Challenge 200: Arithmetic Slices and Seven Segment Display

    Hi Choroba, thanks for your comment. It appears that we don't understand the task in the same way. My understanding of the task is that the differences between any three *consecutive* elements of the original array of integers should be the same. 3 7 11 is indeed an arithmetic sequence, but these numbers are not consecutive items in the original 3 5 7 9 11 input sequence.

  • chrisarg commented on Caching & Memoization with state variables

    I am not sure I follow; are you saying that two different named subroutines can't have the same name for their state variables, i.e. it is not possible to have ?
    sub lucas ()
    {
    state $statevar;
    ...
    }

    sub fibo ()
    {
    state $statevar;
    ...
    }

  • Brett Estrade commented on Caching & Memoization with state variables

    I love state variables, but oddly only use them when creating sub based state machine xD - which is typically just for show. But the idea of co-routines in Perl is nifty.

    I think E. Choroba means something like:

    sub foo {
  state $foo = 1;
  ...
  say $foo;
  ++$foo;
}


    foreach my $i (1 .. 10) {
    
  foo();
    
}

    versus,

    my $foo = 1;
foreach my $i (1 .. 10) {
  my $sub = sub {
    my $myfoo = $foo;
    ...
    say $myfoo;
  };
  ++$foo;
  $sub->();
}

    PHP has the info() function for a very different reason: it tells you ⓐ what options the language has been compiled with because ⓑ you cannot examine them directly without shell access to the host. So it covers a set of requirements that simply do not exist for us, because there is no way to compile a perl with only some of its features. Whether you have any given feature or not depends solely on which version of the perl interpreter you’re running, not how it was compiled. A function that provides this information would just duplicate the documentation at a point where…

  • henq commented on Access the Tesla API with Perl!

    Hi, Steve , love your efforts.
    I forget -a few times per month- to the plug in my Tesla for overnight charging.
    So, I'd like to run a little (cron) script at , say 9pm, to check if the plug is in the charging port.

    I ran the script above, but did not get an URL to paste into my browser. This was the output

    any hints for script newbie ?
    TIA
