* module/system/repl/command.scm (warranty, copying, version): Use
`define-meta-command' to define these procedures, so they are entered
into the *command-infos* table.
* 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: Move a comment about the trigonometric functions
next to those functions. At some point they became separated, when
scm_expt was placed between them.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_product): Handle exact 0 differently. A
product containing an exact 0 now returns an exact 0 if and only if
the other arguments are all exact. An inexact zero is returned if and
only if the other arguments are all finite but not all exact. If an
infinite or NaN value is present, a NaN value is returned.
Previously, any product containing an exact 0 yielded an exact 0,
regardless of the other arguments.
A note on the rationale for (* 0 0.0) returning 0.0 and not exact 0:
The exactness propagation rules allow us to return an exact result in
the presence of inexact arguments only if the values of the inexact
arguments do not affect the result. In this case, the value of the
inexact argument _does_ affect the result, because an infinite or NaN
value causes the result to be a NaN.
A note on the rationale for (* 0 +inf.0) being a NaN and not exact 0:
The R6RS requires that (/ 0 0.0) return a NaN value, and that (/ 0.0)
return +inf.0. We would like (/ x y) to be the same as (* x (/ y)),
and in particular, for (/ 0 0.0) to be the same as (* 0 (/ 0.0)),
which reduces to (* 0 +inf.0). Therefore (* 0 +inf.0) should return
a NaN.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Add many multiplication tests.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entry.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: (real-nan?, complex-nan?,
imaginary-nan?): Add more discriminating NaN testing predicates
internal to numbers.test, and convert several uses of `nan?'
to use these instead:
* `real-nan?' checks that its argument is real and a NaN.
* `complex-nan?' checks that both the real and imaginary
parts of its argument are NaNs.
* `imaginary-nan?' checks that its argument's real part
is zero and the imaginary part is a NaN.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_rationalize): Fix bugs. Previously, it
returned exact integers unmodified, although that was incorrect if
the epsilon was at least 1 or inexact, e.g. (rationalize 4 1) should
return 3 per R5RS and R6RS, but previously it returned 4. Also
handle cases involving infinities and NaNs properly, per R6RS.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Add test cases for `rationalize'.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entry
* NEWS: Fix and combine NEWS entries on `infinite?' and `finite?'.
Previous, they stated that these predicates now work on non-real
complex numbers, but that is not the case.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_integer_expt): No longer require that the
first argument be a number, in order to improve extensibility. This
allows us to efficiently raise arbitrary objects to an integer power
as long as we can multiply those objects. For example, this allows us
to efficiently exponentiate matrices if we define only multiplication
methods for matrices. Note also that scm_expt calls this procedure
whenever the exponent is an integer, regardless of the type of the
first argument. Also rearrange the order in which we test special
cases.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test (expt, integer-expt): Comment out tests
that required `(expt #t 0)' and `(integer-expt #t 0)' to throw
exceptions. Add tests for (expt #t 2) and `(integer-expt #t 2)
instead.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entry
* module/ice-9/psyntax.scm (chi-top): When adding to the toplevel
environment at compile-time, default to undefined variables, not
variables defined to #f.
* module/ice-9/psyntax-pp.scm: Regenerate.
* module/ice-9/boot-9.scm (module-add!): Add a new pre-modules version
of this function, so we can add variables the environment, not just
values.
(module-define!): Use module-add!.
* 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.
* configure.ac (HAVE_SHARED_LIBRARIES): New Automake conditional.
* test-suite/standalone/Makefile.am (check_SCRIPTS): Add `test-asmobs',
`test-ffi', and `test-extensions' only when `HAVE_SHARED_LIBRARIES'.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test (test-eqv?): Remove special handling of
zeroes. Zeroes are now compared like all other numbers. Exact
numbers are compared with `eqv?' and inexact numbers are compared to
within test-epsilon.
Rework the testing framework for number-theoretic division operators:
`euclidean/', `euclidean-quotient', `euclidean-remainder',
`centered/', `centered-quotient', and `centered-remainder'.
Previously we compared all test results against a simple scheme
implementation of the same operations. However, these operations have
discontinuous jumps where a tiny change in the inputs can lead to a
large change in the outputs, e.g.:
(euclidean/ 130.00000000000 10/7) ==> 91.0 and 0.0
(euclidean/ 129.99999999999 10/7) ==> 90.0 and 1.42857142856141
In the new testing scheme, we compare values against the simple
implementations only if the input arguments contain an infinity or a
NaN. In the common case of two finite arguments, we simply make sure
that the outputs of all three operators (e.g. `euclidean/',
`euclidean-quotient', `euclidean-remainder') equal each other, that
outputs are exact iff both inputs are exact, and that the required
properties of the operator are met: that Q is an integer, that R is
within the specified range, and that N = Q*D + R.
* libguile/foreign.h (SCM_POINTER_HAS_FINALIZER): Remove.
* libguile/foreign.c (scm_from_pointer): Store nothing more than
`scm_tc7_pointer' in the type slot.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_quotient, scm_remainder, scm_modulo,
scm_zero_p, scm_positive_p, scm_negative_p, scm_real_part,
scm_imag_part, scm_numerator, scm_denominator, scm_magnitude,
scm_angle, scm_exact_to_inexact): Change from SCM_GPROC to
SCM_PRIMITIVE_GENERIC. As a side effect, all of these procedures now
have documentation strings.
(scm_exact_p, scm_inexact_p, scm_odd_p, scm_even_p, scm_finite_p,
scm_inf_p, scm_nan_p, scm_expt, scm_inexact_to_exact, scm_log,
scm_log10, scm_exp, scm_sqrt): Change from SCM_DEFINE to
SCM_PRIMITIVE_GENERIC, and make sure the code allows these functions
to be extended in practice.
(scm_real_part, scm_imag_part, scm_numerator, scm_denominator,
scm_inexact_to_exact): Simplify type dispatch code.
(scm_sqrt): Rename formal argument from x to z, since complex numbers
are supported.
(scm_abs): Fix empty FUNC_NAME.
* libguile/numbers.h (scm_finite_p): Add missing prototype.
(scm_inf_p, scm_nan_p): Rename formal parameter from n to x, since
the domain is the real numbers.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Test for documentation strings. Change
from `expect-fail' to `pass-if' for several of these, and add tests
for others. Also add other tests for `real-part' and `imag-part',
which previously had none.
* 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_abs, scm_quotient, scm_remainder, scm_modulo):
Add SCM_LIKELY and SCM_UNLIKELY in several places for optimization.
(scm_remainder): Add comment about C99 "%" semantics.
Strip away a redundant set of braces.
* module/oop/goops/compile.scm (compute-cmethod): Fix a bug
that caused the method compiler to barf while compiling a
method that calls (next-method), if there is no applicable
next method.
* module/rnrs/base.scm (real-valued?, rational-valued?,
integer-valued?): Implement in compliance with R6RS.
* test-suite/tests/r6rs-base.test: Add test cases for
`real-valued?', `rational-valued?', and `integer-valued?'.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entries.
* 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.
Change `equal?' to work like `eqv?' for numbers.
Previously they worked differently in some cases, e.g.
when comparing signed zeroes or NaNs. For example,
(equal? 0.0 -0.0) returned #t but (eqv? 0.0 -0.0)
returned #f, and (equal? +nan.0 +nan.0) returned #f
but (eqv? +nan.0 +nan.0) returned #t.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_real_equalp, scm_bigequal,
scm_complex_equalp, scm_i_fraction_equalp): Move to eq.c.
* libguile/eq.c (scm_real_equalp): Compare flonums using
real_eqv instead of ==, so that NaNs are now considered
equal, and to distinguish signed zeroes.
(scm_complex_equalp): Compare real and imaginary
components using real_eqv instead of ==, so that NaNs are
now considered equal, and to distinguish signed zeroes.
(scm_bigequal): Use scm_i_bigcmp instead of duplicating it.
(real_eqv): Test for NaNs using isnan(x) instead of
(x != x), and use SCM_UNLIKELY for optimization.
(scm_eqv_p): Use scm_bigequal, scm_real_equalp,
scm_complex_equalp, and scm_i_fraction_equalp to compare
numbers, instead of inline code. Those predicates now do
what scm_eqv_p formerly did internally. Replace if
statements with switch statements, as is done in
scm_equal_p. Remove useless code to check equality of
fractions with different SCM_CELL_TYPEs; this was for a
tentative "lazy reduction bit" which was never developed.
(scm_eqv_p, scm_equal_p): Remove useless code to check
equality between inexact reals and non-real complex numbers
with zero imaginary part. Such numbers do not exist,
because the current code is careful to never create them.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Add test cases for
`eqv?' and `equal?'. Change existing test case for
`(equal? +nan.0 +nan.0)' to expect #t instead of #f.
* NEWS: Add NEWS entries.
* 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_inet_pton, scm_inet_ntop): Move out of `#ifdef
HAVE_IPV6' and conditionalize the IPv6-specific bits. Reported by
Jan Nieuwenhuizen <janneke@gnu.org>.
* 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'.
This accounts for the fact that some public Guile macros and inline
functions use libgc functions.
* meta/guile-2.0.pc.in (Libs.private): Move @BDW_GC_LIBS@ to...
(Libs): ... here. Reported by Hans Aberg <haberg-1@telia.com>.
* meta/guile-2.0-uninstalled.pc.in: Likewise.
* libguile/numbers.c (scm_difference, scm_product):
Fix bugs when negating SCM_MOST_POSITIVE_FIXNUM+1,
aka -SCM_MOST_NEGATIVE_FIXNUM. Previously, these cases
failed to normalize the result to a fixnum, causing
`=', `eqv?' and `equal?' to fail, e.g.:
(= most-negative-fixnum (- 0 (- most-negative-fixnum)))
(= most-negative-fixnum (* -1 (- most-negative-fixnum)))
(= most-negative-fixnum (* (- most-negative-fixnum) -1))
* test-suite/test/numbers.test: Add test cases to detect
bugs when negating SCM_MOST_POSITIVE_FIXNUM+1 and
SCM_MOST_NEGATIVE_FIXNUM by various methods.
* 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_exact_p): Optimize by making use of the
SCM_INEXACTP macro.
(scm_inexact_p): Move it next to scm_exact_p, and add else's.
* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Add test cases for `exact?'
and `inexact?' applied to infinities and NaNs.
* 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.
* libguile/numbers.h: Add SCM_INUM1, a name for the fixnum 1. This is
analogous to SCM_INUM0, a name for 0, which already existed.
* libguile/numbers.c: Change occurrences of SCM_I_MAKINUM (0) and
SCM_I_MAKINUM (1) to SCM_INUM0 and SCM_INUM1, respectively.
* module/ice-9/format.scm (format): Test to make sure an argument is a
number before applying `inf?' and `nan?' to it. Formerly, format
would call `inf?' and `nan?' on arguments that might be either a
number or a string, although those predicates should ideally throw an
exception when applied to non-number objects.
This leaves space for native code.
* libguile/objcodes.h (SCM_OBJCODE_NATIVE_CODE)
(SCM_SET_OBJCODE_NATIVE_CODE): Reserve the fourth word of objcode for
"native code", whatever that means.
* libguile/objcodes.c: Update a comment.
(make_objcode_by_mmap): Put the fd in the third word.
