* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Exact and Inexact Numbers): Improve the
discussion of exactness propagation. Mention that there are
exceptions to the rule that calculations involving inexact numbers
must product an inexact result.
* libguile/numbers.c (euclidean_quo_rem): Rename to euclidean_divide.
(centered_quo_rem): Rename to {euclidean,centered}_divide.
* libguile/numbers.h: Rename euclidean_quo_rem to euclidean_divide and
centered_quo_rem to centered_divide.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi: Rename euclidean_quo_rem to euclidean_divide and
centered_quo_rem to centered_divide.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_euclidean_quo_and_rem, scm_euclidean_quotient,
scm_euclidean_remainder, scm_centered_quo_and_rem,
scm_centered_quotient, scm_centered_remainder): New extensible
procedures `euclidean/', `euclidean-quotient', `euclidean-remainder',
`centered/', `centered-quotient', `centered-remainder'.
* libguile/numbers.h: Add function prototypes.
* module/rnrs/base.scm: Remove incorrect stub implementations of `div',
`mod', `div-and-mod', `div0', `mod0', and `div0-and-mod0'. Instead do
renaming imports of `euclidean-quotient', `euclidean-remainder',
`euclidean/', `centered-quotient', `centered-remainder', and
`centered/', which are equivalent to the R6RS operators.
* module/rnrs/arithmetic/fixnums.scm (fxdiv, fxmod, fxdiv-and-mod,
fxdiv0, fxmod0, fxdiv0-and-mod0): Remove redundant checks for division
by zero and unnecessary complexity.
(fx+/carry): Remove unneeded calls to `inexact->exact'.
* module/rnrs/arithmetic/flonums.scm (fldiv, flmod, fldiv-and-mod,
fldiv0, flmod0, fldiv0-and-mod0): Remove redundant checks for division
by zero and unnecessary complexity. Remove unneeded calls to
`inexact->exact' and `exact->inexact'
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: (test-eqv?): New internal predicate for
comparing numerical outputs with expected values.
Add extensive test code for `euclidean/', `euclidean-quotient',
`euclidean-remainder', `centered/', `centered-quotient',
`centered-remainder'.
* test-suite/tests/r6rs-arithmetic-fixnums.test: Fix some broken test
cases, and remove `unresolved' test markers for `fxdiv', `fxmod',
`fxdiv-and-mod', `fxdiv0', `fxmod0', and `fxdiv0-and-mod0'.
* test-suite/tests/r6rs-arithmetic-flonums.test: Remove `unresolved'
test markers for `fldiv', `flmod', `fldiv-and-mod', `fldiv0',
`flmod0', and `fldiv0-and-mod0'.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Arithmetic): Document `euclidean/',
`euclidean-quotient', `euclidean-remainder', `centered/',
`centered-quotient', and `centered-remainder'.
(Operations on Integer Values): Add cross-references to `euclidean/'
et al, from `quotient', `remainder', and `modulo'.
* doc/ref/r6rs.texi (rnrs base): Improve documentation for `div', `mod',
`div-and-mod', `div0', `mod0', and `div0-and-mod0'. Add
cross-references to `euclidean/' et al.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entry.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_rational_p): Return #f for infinities and
NaNs, per R6RS. Previously it returned #t for real infinities
and NaNs. They are still considered real by scm_real `real?'
however, per R6RS. Also simplify the code.
(scm_real_p): New implementation to reflect the fact that the
rationals and reals are no longer the same set. Previously it just
called scm_rational_p.
(scm_integer_p): Simplify the code.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Add test cases for `rational?'
and `real?' applied to infinities and NaNs.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Real and Rational Numbers): Update docs to
reflect the fact that infinities and NaNs are no longer rational, and
that `real?' no longer implies `rational?'. Improve discussion of
infinities and NaNs.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entries, and combine with an earlier entry about
infinities no longer being integers.
* doc/ref/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Rename to...
(DISTCLEANFILES): ... this. So that "make clean" doesn't remove
`standard-library.texi'. Reported by Hans Åberg <haberg-1@telia.com>.
* libguile/socket.c (scm_recv, scm_send, scm_recvfrom, scm_sendto):
Expect the buffer to be a bytevector. Move the string-handling
code under `#if SCM_ENABLE_DEPRECATED == 1' and issue a deprecation
warning.
* test-suite/tests/socket.test ("AF_UNIX/SOCK_DGRAM")["sendto",
"sendto/sockaddr"]: Adjust accordingly.
* doc/ref/posix.texi (Network Sockets and Communication): Update
documentation of `recv!', `send', `recvfrom!', and `sendto'.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_inf_p, scm_finite_p, scm_nan_p): The domain of
these functions is the real numbers. Error on other input.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Reals and Rationals): Update the documentation
accordingly.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test ("finite?", "inf?"): Update tests.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_finite_p): Add new predicate `finite?' from
R6RS to guile core, which returns #t if and only if its argument is
neither infinite nor a NaN. Note that this is not the same as (not
(inf? x)) or (not (infinite? x)), since NaNs are neither finite nor
infinite.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Add test cases for `finite?'.
* module/rnrs/base.scm: Import `inf?' as `infinite?' instead of
reimplementing it. Previously, the R6RS implementation of
`infinite?' did not detect non-real complex infinities, nor did it
throw exceptions for non-numbers. (Note that NaNs _are_ considered
numbers by scheme, despite their name).
Import `finite?' instead of reimplementing it. Previously, the R6RS
implementation of `finite?' returned #t for both NaNs and non-real
complex infinities, in violation of R6RS.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entries, and reorganize existing numerics-related
entries together under one subheading.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Real and Rational Numbers): Add docs for
`finite?' and scm_finite_p.
* doc/ref/misc-modules.texi (Formatted Output): Adapt ~f documentation
to indicate that the output will always have a decimal point. Thanks
to Fu-gangqiang for the report.
* THANKS: Update.
This is so that compiling the same code on environments with different
locale settings yields the same result.
* module/system/base/compile.scm (compile-file): When ENC if #f, default
to "UTF-8" instead of `(fluid-ref %default-port-encoding)'.
* doc/ref/api-evaluation.texi (Compilation): Document the default output
file name and default source file encoding for `compile-file' and
`guile-tools compile'.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_is_integer): Infinities are not integers, per
the R6RS.
(scm_even_p, scm_odd_p): Passing an infinity to even? or odd? is an
error.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test ("integer?"): Adapt test.
("expt"): Add tests for +inf.0 and -inf.0 exponents.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entries.
Thanks to Mark Harig for pointing this out and suggesting the text.
* doc/ref/scheme-scripts.texi (Invoking Guile): Mention --autocompile
and --no-autocompile.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (The Metaobject Protocol): Bring forward to
before `Class Options', and add intro text to explain why. All of
the sections now remaining are ones where the MOP is more likely to
be relevant than not.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (GOOPS Object Miscellany): New section, combining
previous `Object Comparison', `Cloning Objects' and `Write and
Display'. Replace `Object Comparison' text with something that
makes sense. Add a snippet to the end of the write/display section.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (Introspection): Make a bit snappier.
(Classes): Add intro. Remove "the" and "metaobject" everywhere.
Remove `class-environment', since I don't know what it's useful for.
(Instances): Remove implementation notes.
(Built-in classes): Merge with `Instances'. Reorder text points.
(Generic Functions): Add intro. Remove "the" and "metaobject"
everywhere.
(Generic Function Methods): Merge with `Generic Functions'.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (Introspection): Move to after `Generic Functions
and Methods'. The idea is to have all of that sections that make
sense without needing to understand the MOP, before sections that
really depend on the MOP.
* doc/ref/goops.texi (Methods and Generic Functions): More explanation
of generic function invocation. Created (or moved) subsections here
to cover material on the following that was previously spread elsewhere:
accessors; extending primitives; merging generics; generic function
examples; handling invocation errors. Edited for clarity throughout.
(Generic functions and methods, Example): Nodes deleted, with their
material incorporated above.
(Class Precedence List): Edited to improve clarity.
(Sorting Methods): New subsection.
* doc/ref/web.texi (HTTP): Add an example for declaring a header, and
adapt to read-header change.
* module/web/http.scm (read-header): Return EOF for both values if there
are no more headers, instead of #f.
(read-headers): Adapt.
* doc/ref/web.texi (Types and the Web): Fix spacing.
(URIs): Give default values, and clarify a number of procedure docs.
Update "encoding" name, and string->uri name.
Suggested by Noah Lavine <noah.b.lavine@gmail.com>.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (String Searching): Mention the return value of
`string-index', `string-index-right', and `string-rindex' when no
match is found.
* libguile/srfi-13.c (scm_string_index, scm_string_index_right,
scm_string_rindex): Adjust docstring accordingly.
