Rust is a programming language that’s focused on safety, speed, and concurrency. Its design lets you create programs that have the performance and control of a low-level language, but with the pow- erful abstractions of a high-level language. These properties make Rust suitable for programmers who have experience in languages like C and are looking for a safer alternative, as well as those from languages like Python who are looking for ways to write code that performs better without sacrificing expressiveness. Rust performs the majority of its safety checks and memory man- agement decisions at compile time, so that your program’s runtime performance isn’t impacted. This makes it useful in a number of use cases that other languages aren’t good at: programs with predictable space and time requirements, embedding in other languages, and writ- ing low-level code, like device drivers and operating systems. It’s also great for web applications: it powers the Rust package registry site, crates.io! We’re excited to see what you create with Rust. This book is written for a reader who already knows how to program in at least one programming language. After reading this book, you should be comfortable writing Rust programs. We’ll be learning Rust through small, focused examples that build on each other to demon- strate how to use various features of Rust as well as how they work behind the scenes. 12 1.1 Contributing to the book This book is open source. If you find an error, please don’t hesitate to file an issue or send a pull request on GitHub. Please see CON- TRIBUTING.md for more details. 1.2 Installation The first step to using Rust is to install it. You’ll need an internet con- nection to run the commands in this chapter, as we’ll be downloading Rust from the internet. We’ll be showing off a number of commands using a terminal, and those lines all start with $. You don’t need to type in the $ character; they are there to indicate the start of each command. You’ll see many tutorials and examples around the web that follow this convention: $ for commands run as a regular user, and # for commands you should be running as an administrator. Lines that don’t start with $ are typically showing the output of the previous command. Installing on Linux or Mac If you’re on Linux or a Mac, all you need to do is open a terminal and type this: $ curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh This will download a script and start the installation. You may be prompted for your password. If it all goes well, you’ll see this appear: Rust is installed now. Great! Of course, if you disapprove of the curl | sh pattern, you can down- load, inspect and run the script however you like. Installing on Windows On Windows, go to https://rustup.rs and follow the instructions to download rustup-init.exe. Run that and follow the rest of the instruc- tions it gives you. The rest of the Windows-specific commands in the book will assume that you are using cmd as your shell. If you use a different shell, you 13 may be able to run the same commands that Linux and Mac users do. If neither work, consult the documentation for the shell you are using. Custom installations If you have reasons for preferring not to use rustup.rs, please see the Rust installation page for other options. Updating Once you have Rust installed, updating to the latest version is easy. From your shell, run the update script: $ rustup update Uninstalling Uninstalling Rust is as easy as installing it. From your shell, run the uninstall script: $ rustup self uninstall Troubleshooting If you’ve got Rust installed, you can open up a shell, and type this: $ rustc --version You should see the version number, commit hash, and commit date in a format similar to this for the latest stable version at the time you install: rustc x.y.z (abcabcabc yyyy-mm-dd) If you see this, Rust has been installed successfully! Congrats! If you don’t and you’re on Windows, check that Rust is in your %PATH% system variable. If it still isn’t working, there are a number of places where you can get help. The easiest is the #rust IRC channel on irc.mozilla.org, which you can access through Mibbit. Go to that address, and you’ll be chatting with other Rustaceans (a silly nickname we call ourselves) who can help you out. Other great resources include the Users forum and Stack Overflow. 14 Local documentation The installer also includes a copy of the documentation locally, so you can read it offline. Run rustup doc to open the local documentation in your browser. Any time there’s a type or function provided by the standard library and you’re not sure what it does, use the API documentation to find out! 1.3 Hello, World! Now that you have Rust installed, let’s write your first Rust program. It’s traditional when learning a new language to write a little program to print the text “Hello, world!” to the screen, and in this section, we’ll follow that tradition. Note: This book assumes basic familiarity with the com- mand line. Rust itself makes no specific

  • Eff Directly in Ocaml
    Eff Directly in OCaml Oleg Kiselyov KC Sivaramakrishnan Tohoku University, Japan University of Cambridge, UK [email protected] [email protected] The language Eff is an OCaml-like language serving as a prototype implementation of the theory of algebraic effects, intended for experimentation with algebraic effects on a large scale. We present the embedding of Eff into OCaml, using the library of delimited continuations or the multicore OCaml branch. We demonstrate the correctness of the embedding denotationally, re- lying on the tagless-final–style interpreter-based denotational semantics, including the novel, direct denotational semantics of multi-prompt delimited control. The embedding is systematic, lightweight, performant and supports even higher-order, ‘dynamic’ effects with their polymorphism. OCaml thus may be regarded as another implementation of Eff, broadening the scope and appeal of that language. 1 Introduction Algebraic effects [33, 32] are becoming a more and more popular approach for expressing and com- posing computational effects. There are implementations of algebraic effects in Haskell [18, 22], Idris [4], OCaml [10, 18], Koka [27], Scala1, Javascript2, PureScript3, and other languages. The most direct embodiment of algebraic effect theory is the language Eff4 “built to test the mathematical ideas of alge- braic effects in practice”. It is an OCaml-like language with the native facilities (syntax, type system) to declare effects and their handlers [2]. It is currently implemented as an interpreter, with an optimizing compiler to OCaml in the works. Rather than compile Eff to OCaml, we embed it. After all, save for algebraic effects, Eff truly is a subset of OCaml and can be interpreted or compiled as a regular OCaml code.

  • Declare Variable on Python
    Declare Variable On Python Is Herby devout when Ambrose presaged familiarly? Rob castigate stertorously. Jake interchanging unwieldily? The final equals sign should point to the value you want to assign to your variables. There are some guidelines you need to know before you name a variable. Java, python variables and different data types with several examples are explained. There is a question that always hovers among Python programmers. Strings are declared within a single or double quote. Break a string based on some rule. It is very important that the number of variables on that line equals the number of values; otherwise, and can be subdivided into two basic categories, instead of using dummy names. Python interpreter allocates the memory to the variable. Python assigns values from right to left. However, Sam, then check your prediction. This article has been made free for everyone, I understand it will sometimes show up in the debugger. The data stored in memory can be of many types. Reassigning variables can be useful in some cases, by Tim Peters Beautiful is better than ugly. The variables that are prefixed with __ are known as the special variables. Swapping values between two variables is a common programming operation. We will go through python variables and python data types in more detail further in this blog. Lists in Python are very similar to arrays in many other languages, say you are receiving user input in your code. What if we try to call the local variable outside of the function? This appends a single value to the end of a list.

  • Scripting Layer for Android: Updated and Expanded Support
    POLITECNICO DI MILANO School of Industrial and Information Engineering Master of Science in Computer Science and Engineering SCRIPTING LAYER FOR ANDROID: UPDATED AND EXPANDED SUPPORT Master graduation thesis: Miguel Angel Palacio Delgado – Student ID: 816355 Supervisor: Dr. Giovanni Agosta Academic Year 2015-2016 iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my family for all their support throughout my master's studies, without it I would not have been able to complete them. I would also like to express my gratitude to those friends that somehow helped me during my stay in Milan. I specially thank my supervisor Giovanni Agosta for all his understanding, cooperation and availability during the development of this work. Milan, April 2016 iv Abstract The Scripting Layer for Android (SL4A) is a software suite that brings scripting languages to Android by allowing the creation, edition and execution of scripts and the use of interactive interpreters directly on Android devices. These scripts have access to many of the APIs available to traditional Android applications, with the inherent ease of scripting languages. Despite being initially developed at Google, SL4A was never an official project and it is currently not maintained. The main purpose of this work is to update the SL4A libraries to support the most recent versions of the Android operative system as well as to extend the support for missing components in the user interface library. Lo Scripting Layer for Android (SL4A) è una suite di software che porta linguaggi di scripting ad Android, permettendo la creazione, edizione ed esecuzione di scripts e anche l'uso di interprete interattivi direttamente su dispositivi Android.

  • Haskell-Like S-Expression-Based Language Designed for an IDE
    Department of Computing Imperial College London MEng Individual Project Haskell-Like S-Expression-Based Language Designed for an IDE Author: Supervisor: Michal Srb Prof. Susan Eisenbach June 2015 Abstract The state of the programmers’ toolbox is abysmal. Although substantial effort is put into the development of powerful integrated development environments (IDEs), their features often lack capabilities desired by programmers and target primarily classical object oriented languages. This report documents the results of designing a modern programming language with its IDE in mind. We introduce a new statically typed functional language with strong metaprogramming capabilities, targeting JavaScript, the most popular runtime of today; and its accompanying browser-based IDE. We demonstrate the advantages resulting from designing both the language and its IDE at the same time and evaluate the resulting environment by employing it to solve a variety of nontrivial programming tasks. Our results demonstrate that programmers can greatly benefit from the combined application of modern approaches to programming tools. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Susan, Sophia and Tristan for their invaluable feedback on this project, my family, my parents Michal and Jana and my grandmothers Hana and Jaroslava for supporting me throughout my studies, and to all my friends, especially to Harry whom I met at the interview day and seem to not be able to get rid of ever since. ii Contents Abstract i Contents iii 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Objectives ........................................ 2 1.2 Challenges ........................................ 3 1.3 Contributions ...................................... 4 2 State of the Art 6 2.1 Languages ........................................ 6 2.1.1 Haskell ....................................

Friend is all of those of utilities you keep reimplementing across your Python projects, that all got together and decided to live in harmony. Maybe you just parsed some YAML that contained some configuration in “snake_case”, and you want to pass this configuration to a boto3 function which takes the same values but in “PascalCase”. Then you might find snake_to_pascal_obj or one of its variants to come in handy. with open('conf.yml') as f: conf= yaml.load(f) ec2= boto3.resource('ec2') ec2.create_instances( ImageId='ami-12345678', BlockDeviceMappings=snake_to_pascal_obj(conf['block_device_mappings']), .... ) Or you need to add a retry to that script that keeps breaking your Jenkins job because the corporate proxy fails about 5% of the time. Sure, you can add a try/except and wrap it in a for loop, but putting the retryable decorator on top of that problematic function will do that for you in one configurable line. @retryable(times=5) def flaky_function(): status= requests.get('https://service.corp/v2/status').json() if 'error' in status: send_important_email(status['error']) 1 Friend Documentation, Release 0.2.1 2 Chapter 1.

  • The Rust Programming Language by Steve Klabnik and Carol Nichols, with Contributions from the Rust Community
    The Rust Programming Language by Steve Klabnik and Carol Nichols, with contributions from the Rust Community This version of the text assumes you’re using Rust 1.41.0 or later with edition="2018" in Cargo.toml of all projects to use Rust 2018 Edition idioms. See the “Installation” section of Chapter 1 to install or update Rust, and see the new Appendix E for information on editions. The 2018 Edition of the Rust language includes a number of improvements that make Rust more ergonomic and easier to learn. This iteration of the book contains a number of changes to reflect those improvements: Chapter 7, “Managing Growing Projects with Packages, Crates, and Modules,” has been mostly rewritten. The module system and the way paths work in the 2018 Edition were made more consistent. Chapter 10 has new sections titled “Traits as Parameters” and “Returning Types that Implement Traits” that explain the new impl Trait syntax. Chapter 11 has a new section titled “Using Result<T, E> in Tests” that shows how to write tests that use the ? operator. The “Advanced Lifetimes” section in Chapter 19 was removed because compiler improvements have made the constructs in that section even rarer. The previous Appendix D, “Macros,” has been expanded to include procedural macros and was moved to the “Macros” section in Chapter 19. Appendix A, “Keywords,” also explains the new raw identifiers feature that enables code written in the 2015 Edition and the 2018 Edition to interoperate. Appendix D is now titled “Useful Development Tools” and covers recently released tools that help you write Rust code.
