do you know this?

Hey, what is the difference between and Streams and Sequences? Aren't they both the sequence of data?

@msx80

I think streams are a more generic abstraction, they define something that can be iterated, possibly lazily, including infinite series of values. Sequences are more like regular arrays or lists, ie materialized serie of actual data.

Sequences extends streams (Iterables)

Hello once again, everyone! I hope you all have been doing well!

To anyone who might still frequent this channel: I don’t know if it’s of interest to anyone, but I wanted to mention that I decided to spend some time today generating a native image for my old solitaire game with GraalVM. It took me a while to figure it out, but it seems everything is working fine now!

I have been really looking forward to start playing around with Ceylon again! I don’t care if the project has been going slow lately, I just want to be able to actually enjoy a programming language again for once! And Ceylon is such a nice language, I feel like it’s difficult to not enjoy it. :blush:

I wish a great end of year to whomever here cares about the Gregorian calendar! :tada: All the best!

Here’s the executable!

unxz < solitaire.xz > solitaire
chmod +x solitaire
./solitaire

@zamfofex nice! :)

I have been getting enthusiastic about the Rust language lately

Hi there :)

OCaml has a higher order module system and I considered it as the most advanced module system because of this, since it allows for structures that not even Haskell allows with its type classes.

Now I read on the announcement post of Ceylon becoming an official project of the Eclipse post, that Ceylon "has the most sophisticated and cleanly-integrated module system of any programming language."

Ocaml is a great language, I found it in many new languages, even F# looks exactly like Ocaml

Hi, please note that the Ceylon module repository is likely to be taken offline real soon. Let me know if you find this unacceptable and want to discuss hosting options. Sorry about this.

@FroMage - one question. We have own local herd, but then we try to compile out projects it try to ose central herd and we have big timeout. Is it possible to change config to not use central herd?

MikhailMalyutin

@MikhailMalyutin

I know about ceylon compile --offline, but i want to download artifact from our herd server

Someone shared this on a Discord server I’m a part of: https://github.com/fsharp/fslang-suggestions/issues/243#issuecomment-916079347 I felt like some people here might find it interesting.

I wrote my thoughts about it, and defended Ceylon as a language I consider interesting in that regard!

Many people always do, feel that their girlfriend or wife is not young enough, chest is not big enough, buttocks are not big enough. Not high enough, face not round enough, nose beam not high enough... But if he did swap his girlfriend or wife for the woman of his dreams, he wouldn't

I've seen in reality that a lot of people always reject languages, but they don't give up the languages they've mastered

@Kiti-Nomad

I mean, as long as something doesn't look so bad, then it has a very fascinating point that's enough to survive. You should consider how to make ceylon have a very obsessive point compared to other jvm languages
