| | I heard a lot of good things about Mike Okasaki's Purely Functional Data Structures at UChicago, but didn't ever take the time to check it out. Lately I've missed the heady joy of reading and writing code in a strongly typed functional programming language like Standard ML, so when one of my coworkers at Knewton mentioned he was going to read the book I decided to get a copy for myself.

| | Today I've played around with Zig, the new, hip (is it hip?) programming language. I find it pretty neat. I'm going to walk you (and myself) through my first, very short, piece of code. Below you can see the entirety of it. It basically allocates a 2MB buffer and reads a file into it... Yep, not particularly impressive, but this is a judgment free, learning zone, ok?! 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 const std = @import("std"); const warn = @import("std").

| | In 'Thought 2: Regex is Like Assembly' I wondered why we are still doing regex in this kind of hard to understand, symbolic way, when we have already invented high level programming languages. There is no reason regex can't be written as clearly as any other programming language we use today. I thought doing this would be an interesting project, and so I came up with Regexl, a high level language for writing regex, that can be used as a simple library.
