+NOTE Intro
+
+00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.199
+Hello everyone. Welcome to my talk.
+
+00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:09.359
+I am Akib Azmain Turja and my talk is titled
+
+00:00:09.360 --> 00:00:11.519
+"Eat and Eat-powered Eshell:
+
+00:00:11.520 --> 00:00:15.439
+Fast, featureful terminal inside Emacs."
+
+NOTE Benchmarking
+
+00:00:15.440 --> 00:00:22.839
+So I just claimed that Eat is a fast terminal emulator.
+
+00:00:22.840 --> 00:00:33.279
+Let me show you that. I will print a 1-megabyte sized file
+
+00:00:33.280 --> 00:00:39.039
+in the terminal using this command.
+
+00:00:39.040 --> 00:00:47.359
+It takes 0.76 seconds. Now let's benchmark term-mode.
+
+00:00:47.360 --> 00:00:54.799
+I will be in term -mode. I use the same command,
+
+00:00:54.800 --> 00:01:06.599
+and it's clearly the loser.
+
+00:01:06.600 --> 00:01:18.319
+It took 12 seconds, more than an order of magnitude slower.
+
+00:01:18.320 --> 00:01:27.279
+Let's also measure the speed of return.
+
+00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:33.479
+And it took 0.79 seconds.
+
+00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:36.159
+But this is actually a little bit slower than Eat.
+
+00:01:36.160 --> 00:01:41.799
+Why? That shouldn't happen.
+
+00:01:41.800 --> 00:01:49.719
+Anyway, hopefully that shows how fast Eat is.
+
+NOTE Running programs
+
+00:01:49.720 --> 00:01:54.439
+So let's run some extra programs in Eat,
+
+00:01:54.440 --> 00:02:05.639
+like top. You can also run htop or even btop.
+
+00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:08.559
+There is a fancy version of top.
+
+00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:20.239
+And obviously you can run Emacs in it.
+
+00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:33.879
+There is mouse support, and there is true color support.
+
+00:02:33.880 --> 00:02:38.799
+You can show any color in the terminal
+
+00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:47.079
+as long as your main display supports it.
+
+NOTE Shell integration
+
+00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:50.359
+And then there is shell integration.
+
+00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:52.399
+For example, directory tracking.
+
+00:02:52.400 --> 00:03:07.479
+Like, I can switch to some other directory
+
+00:03:07.480 --> 00:03:11.919
+and Emacs follows the shell directory.
+
+NOTE Prompt annotation
+
+00:03:11.920 --> 00:03:16.439
+Then there is prompt annotation,
+
+00:03:16.440 --> 00:03:20.319
+this column. These zeros indicate
+
+00:03:20.320 --> 00:03:27.079
+that the command has executed successfully.
+
+00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:37.679
+Then you can navigate between commands like this.
+
+NOTE Message passing
+
+00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:39.399
+There is message passing.
+
+00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:44.119
+By message passing, I mean sending something
+
+00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:46.959
+from the terminal to the host Emacs.
+
+00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:52.119
+By host Emacs, I mean Emacs running the terminal.
+
+00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:57.439
+For example I can say "hi" and it's showing "hi"
+
+00:03:57.440 --> 00:04:03.519
+in this echo area of my Emacs.
+
+NOTE Shell integration
+
+00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:08.679
+Then let's show you the killer feature of Eat,
+
+00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:20.239
+Eat's shell integration.
+
+00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:37.839
+You can run any program in it. For example: top, btop,
+
+00:04:37.840 --> 00:04:52.159
+and obviously Emacs itself.
+
+NOTE Input modes
+
+00:04:52.160 --> 00:05:03.159
+So let's discuss how to use Eat. There are four input modes.
+
+00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:07.319
+The first one is semi-char mode. That is the default mode.
+
+00:05:07.320 --> 00:05:10.919
+This is like vterm. All keys are the same to your terminal
+
+00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:17.879
+except these keys: C-c, C-x, C-g, M-x, etc.
+
+00:05:17.880 --> 00:05:20.599
+And then there is char-mode, where all keys
+
+00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:26.919
+are same to your terminal, except this M-RET key
+
+00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:29.679
+which takes you back to the semi-char mode.
+
+00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:34.559
+Then there is Emacs mode where you can select
+
+00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:39.719
+and copy from the terminal buffer.
+
+00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:42.679
+And finally, there is line mode.
+
+00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:49.199
+You can use it to use your terminal like a comint buffer.
+
+00:05:49.200 --> 00:05:55.999
+All these input modes are available in both Eat
+
+00:05:56.000 --> 00:06:05.879
+and eat-eshell mode, except this line mode--
+
+00:06:05.880 --> 00:06:10.439
+it's only available on Eat.
+
+00:06:10.440 --> 00:06:13.959
+By "on Eat", I mean the terminal you get
+
+00:06:13.960 --> 00:06:20.159
+by this eat command. By eshell, I mean
+
+00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:23.144
+when eat-eshell integration is enabled
+
+00:06:23.145 --> 00:06:28.446
+inside the eshell buffer.
+
+NOTE Documentation
+
+00:06:33.760 --> 00:06:36.719
+There is an info manual,
+
+00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:51.599
+And also the README is quite informative
+
+00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:54.999
+for you to get started.
+
+00:06:55.000 --> 00:07:13.519
+If you hit any problem,
+
+00:07:13.520 --> 00:07:22.959
+there is a dedicated chapter for debugging that,
+
+00:07:22.960 --> 00:07:26.119
+a common problems chapter.
+
+00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:27.999
+If your problem is still not fixed,
+
+00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:29.519
+please report it to me.
+
+00:07:29.520 --> 00:07:36.119
+This helps me improve it for everyone.
+
+00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:40.359
+When you report, please read this chapter
+
+00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:53.159
+so that you can make a better bug report.
+
+00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:57.639
+I am really looking forward to how people use it
+
+00:07:57.640 --> 00:07:59.079
+in their workflow.
+
+00:07:59.080 --> 00:08:03.479
+I am excited about that.
+
+00:08:03.480 --> 00:08:10.759
+Hopefully you enjoyed my talk. That was all.
+
+00:08:10.760 --> 00:08:12.720
+Enjoy EmacsConf. Goodbye.

+
+01:08.920 --> 00:01:10.889

+and "new users should see Lisp in the first five minutes."
+
+02:03.400 --> 02:08.160
I'm going to show some examples of that soon.
-02:08.800 --> 02:12.880

-I changed my way of presenting it, and it became very REPL-centric in the last few years,
+02:14.120 --> 00:02:16.781
+I changed my way of presenting it,
-02:21.040 --> 02:28.240
-in the sense that I start by explaining its main features by its support for REPLs.
+00:02:16.782 --> 00:02:19.190
+and it became very REPL-centric
-02:30.320 --> 02:34.320
-EEV supposes that we want to keep executable notes of everything.
+00:02:19.191 --> 00:02:22.200
+in the last few years, in the sense that
-02:34.320 --> 02:37.040
+02:22.200 --> 00:02:26.460
+I start by explaining its main features

+00:02:32.079 --> 00:02:34.560
+executable notes of everything.
+
+02:34.560 --> 02:37.800
I'm also going to show examples of this in a second.
-02:38.080 --> 02:41.600
-EEV has lots of videos for people who hate videos,
+02:37.800 --> 02:42.120
+eev has lots of videos for people who hate videos,
-02:42.240 --> 02:47.520
-and it tries to do everything with very little magic and without black boxes.
+02:42.120 --> 00:02:44.270
+and it tries to do everything
-02:47.520 --> 02:50.240
+00:02:44.271 --> 00:02:47.640
+with very little magic and without black boxes.
+
+02:47.640 --> 02:51.360
I'm going to explain many of these things very soon.
-02:52.880 --> 02:58.160
-This is a figure that I'm going to show in detail soon,
+NOTE Another figure
+
+02:51.360 --> 02:58.200
+This is a figure that I'm going to show in detail soon
-02:58.160 --> 03:01.520
+02:58.200 --> 03:01.640
that is about something important about Lua.
-03:01.520 --> 03:05.280
-Oops, the font is very bad now, so let me change the font.
+03:01.640 --> 03:03.400
+Oops, the font is very bad now,
+
+03:03.400 --> 03:05.200
+so let me change the font.
+
+03:05.200 --> 03:07.760
+The figure is this one.
-03:05.280 --> 03:07.840
-The figure is this one, and
+03:09.880 --> 00:03:12.935
+What most people do when they visit a file

-what most people do when they visit a file with something interesting on it
+00:03:12.936 --> 00:03:15.280
+with something interesting in it,
-03:13.440 --> 03:16.640
-is that they just go there, and they set a bookmark there,
+03:15.280 --> 03:18.360
+is that they just go there and they set a bookmark there,
-03:16.640 --> 03:19.760
+03:18.360 --> 03:22.640
or they put the position in the register.
-03:21.760 --> 03:28.480
-But I prefer to keep links to everything that is interesting as a list of hyperlinks.
+03:22.640 --> 00:03:29.781
+But I prefer to keep links
-03:28.480 --> 03:32.640
-So, for example, this is an at least hyperlink to the file
+00:03:29.782 --> 00:03:30.221
+to everything that is interesting
-03:32.640 --> 03:36.480
-that goes to this anchor here, and to this string I've added.
+00:03:30.222 --> 00:03:30.480
+as an Elisp hyperlink.
-03:36.480 --> 03:38.560
-And to this string after this anchor.
+03:30.480 --> 00:03:34.236
+For example, this is an Elisp hyperlink to the file
-03:39.760 --> 03:45.760
-This is a variant that opens that file in the window at the right here.
+00:03:34.237 --> 00:03:36.520
+that goes to this anchor here,
-03:47.440 --> 03:53.520
-And this is a sexpid that changes the font.
+03:36.520 --> 03:39.280
+and to this string after this anchor.
-03:53.520 --> 03:57.680
+03:39.280 --> 00:03:43.388
+This is a variant that opens that file
+
+00:03:43.389 --> 00:03:46.760
+in the window at the right here,
+
+03:46.760 --> 03:53.640
+and this is a sexp that changes the font.
+
+03:53.640 --> 03:57.880
I have a command with a very short name that does that,
-03:58.400 --> 04:02.880
+03:57.880 --> 04:03.680
but I prefer to keep that as a one-liner.
-04:03.840 --> 04:11.440
-About the videos, we can see the list of first-class videos of Eevee by executing this,
+04:03.680 --> 00:04:04.281
+About the videos, we can see
+
+00:04:04.282 --> 00:04:11.440
+the list of first-class videos of eev by executing this,
-04:11.440 --> 04:16.960
-meta-x, find first-class videos, or by running this alias here,
+04:11.440 --> 00:04:14.190
+`M-x find-1stclassvideos`,
-04:16.960 --> 04:20.320
-meta-x1c, and then what we see is this.
+00:04:14.191 --> 00:04:18.480
+or by running this alias here, `M-x 1c`,
-04:21.520 --> 04:25.440
-The first sexpid here regenerates this buffer,
+04:18.480 --> 04:21.160
+and then what we see is this.
-04:25.440 --> 04:28.960
+04:21.160 --> 04:25.560
+The first sexp here regenerates this buffer,
+
+04:25.560 --> 04:29.120
so we can make a mess here and then run this,
-04:29.040 --> 04:33.040
+04:29.120 --> 04:34.120
and the original buffer is regenerated again in a clean way.
-04:34.880 --> 04:42.000
-Each of these things here opens a buffer with information about a video.
+04:34.120 --> 00:04:36.951
+Each of these things here
+
+00:04:36.952 --> 00:04:41.960
+opens a buffer with information about a video.
-04:42.000 --> 04:44.400
+04:41.960 --> 04:45.320
Let me take a specific example here.
-04:46.080 --> 04:50.720
-This video here is about one of the ancestors of this talk,
+04:45.320 --> 00:04:50.278
+This video here is about one of the ancestors of this talk
-04:50.720 --> 04:52.960
-that is a library that I wrote for
+00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:52.800
+that is a library that I wrote
-04:53.920 --> 05:01.120
-creating diagrams in LaTeX using a package called pic2e, using repls.
+04:52.800 --> 00:04:56.906
+for creating diagrams in LaTeX
-05:02.320 --> 05:10.720
-Anyway, the thing is that if we run a sexpid like this one,
+00:04:56.907 --> 00:05:03.000
+using a package called [pict2e-lua] using REPLs.
-05:10.720 --> 05:13.440
-and we don't have a local copy of the video,
+05:03.000 --> 00:05:10.028
+Anyway, the thing is that if we run a sexp like this one
-05:14.080 --> 05:16.320
-Eevee will try to load the local copy,
+00:05:10.029 --> 00:05:16.314
+and we don't have a local copy of the video,
-05:16.320 --> 05:19.600
-and instead of doing that and by asking something like,
+00:05:16.315 --> 00:05:19.581
+eev will try to load the local copy
-05:19.680 --> 05:20.720
-asking something like,
+00:05:19.582 --> 00:05:20.560
+and instead of doing that by asking something
-05:20.720 --> 05:24.560
-do you want me to download the local copy, blah, blah, blah, blah,
+05:20.560 --> 00:05:25.381
+like "do you want me to download the local copy"
-05:25.680 --> 05:28.720
-it simply opens a buffer like this.
+00:05:25.382 --> 00:05:29.240
+blah, blah, blah, it simply opens a buffer like this.
-05:28.720 --> 05:32.480
-I mean, if we don't have a local copy yet,
+05:29.240 --> 00:05:35.514
+And if we don't have a local copy yet,
-05:32.480 --> 05:34.400
+00:05:35.515 --> 00:05:37.220
it will open a buffer like this one,
-05:35.440 --> 05:41.760
-in which these things here in comments are links to the documentation.
+00:05:37.221 --> 00:05:40.030
+in which these things here in comments
-05:41.760 --> 05:48.240
-I mean, this thing here explains the idea of local copies of files from the internet,
+00:05:40.031 --> 00:05:42.678
+are links to the documentation.
-05:48.880 --> 05:52.960
-uh, there are more details here and here,
+00:05:42.679 --> 00:05:45.780
+This thing here explains the idea
-05:53.840 --> 05:59.280
+00:05:45.781 --> 00:05:50.278
+of local copies of files from the internet.
+
+00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:54.120
+There are more details here and here,
+
+00:05:54.121 --> 00:05:59.580
and this is a script that we can execute line by line.
-05:59.280 --> 06:04.080
-So, instead of this script being hidden behind the button that we just
+05:59.580 --> 00:06:04.276
+So instead of this script being hidden behind the button
+
+00:06:04.277 --> 00:06:07.160
+that we just press after a question
+
+06:07.160 --> 00:06:10.708
+like "do you want me to do something," blah, blah, blah,
+
+00:06:10.709 --> 00:06:13.228
+"yes or no?", the script is visible here
+
+00:06:13.229 --> 00:06:15.380
+and we can execute it step by step.
+
+06:15.380 --> 00:06:22.457
+It creates a terminal with a shell here in the right window
+
+00:06:22.458 --> 00:06:26.988
+and when we type `F8` in these lines here,
-06:04.960 --> 06:07.360
-press after a question like,
+00:06:26.989 --> 00:06:30.360
+the lines are sent to this line.
-06:07.360 --> 06:09.920
-do you want me to do something, blah, blah, blah, yes or no,
+06:30.360 --> 00:06:33.842
+So this is going to download a copy of the video,
-06:11.200 --> 06:15.120
-the script is visible here, and we can execute it step by step.
+00:06:33.843 --> 00:06:38.134
+the wget says that I already have a copy of the video
-06:15.200 --> 06:22.080
-It creates a terminal with a shell here in the right window,
+00:06:38.135 --> 00:06:40.360
+and its subtitles and so on.
-06:22.080 --> 06:28.880
-and when we type f8 in these lines here, the lines are sent to this line.
+06:40.360 --> 00:06:45.739
+And after getting a copy of the video
-06:30.080 --> 06:33.920
-So, this is going to download the copy of the video,
+00:06:45.740 --> 00:06:52.960
+we can run this exp here and it displays the video.
-06:33.920 --> 06:39.360
-the wget says that I already have a copy of the video in its subtitles, and so on.
+06:52.960 --> 00:06:55.486
+I said that eev has lots of videos
-06:39.920 --> 06:47.600
-And after getting a copy of the video, we can run this exp here, and it displays the video.
+00:06:55.487 --> 00:06:57.435
+for people who hate videos.
-06:52.880 --> 06:57.840
-I said that Eevee has lots of videos for people who hate videos,
+00:06:57.436 --> 00:07:00.046
+The idea is that very few people
-06:57.840 --> 07:02.960
-and the idea is that very few people are going to watch the videos in real time,
+00:07:00.047 --> 00:07:03.081
+are going to watch the videos in real time.
-07:03.920 --> 07:10.480
-and most of the people that I know, or most of the people that are interested in Eevee in some way,
+00:07:03.082 --> 00:07:07.642
+Most of the people that I know, or most of the people
-07:10.480 --> 07:15.280
-they are going to watch just small sections of the video,
+00:07:07.643 --> 00:07:10.790
+that are interested in eev in some way,
-07:15.280 --> 07:18.720
-and most of the time they're just going to read the subtitles of the video.
+00:07:10.791 --> 00:07:14.320
+they are going to watch just small sections of the video.
-07:19.680 --> 07:25.760
-So, for each one of the videos, we have a page about the video.
+00:07:14.321 --> 00:07:17.574
+Most of the time, they are just going to
-07:25.760 --> 07:28.400
-Let me see if I have internet here.
+00:07:17.575 --> 00:07:19.940
+read the subtitles of the video.
-07:28.400 --> 07:29.680
-Yes, this is a page,
+07:19.940 --> 00:07:22.531
+For each one of the videos
-07:29.920 --> 07:36.080
-and usually these pages have a link to another page,
+00:07:22.532 --> 00:07:25.295
+we have a page about the video...
-07:36.080 --> 07:42.880
-the page that has all the subtitles of the video, wherever.
+00:07:25.296 --> 00:07:29.673
+Let me see if I have internet here...
-07:42.880 --> 07:46.960
-In this one, it's not so visible, but anyway,
+00:07:29.674 --> 00:07:34.901
+This is a page. Usually these pages
-07:46.960 --> 07:50.480
-there are several ways of accessing the subtitles of the video,
+00:07:34.902 --> 00:07:38.427
+have a link to another page,
-07:50.480 --> 07:54.720
-and one of the ways is by running this exp here,
+00:07:38.428 --> 00:07:43.890
+the page that has all the subtitles of the video,
-07:55.040 --> 07:57.280
-is by running this exp here,
+00:07:43.891 --> 00:07:48.587
+wherever. In this one, it's not so visible.
-07:59.440 --> 08:03.680
-that opens a file in Lua that is what I use to generate the subtitles.
+00:07:48.588 --> 00:07:52.001
+Anyway, there are several ways of accessing
-08:04.880 --> 08:13.760
-Anyway, by the way, each one of these things here is hyperlinked to a position of the video,
+00:07:52.002 --> 00:07:53.963
+the subtitles of the video.
-08:14.400 --> 08:19.280
-so if I type this in the right way, it goes to that position.
+00:07:53.964 --> 00:07:58.632
+One of the ways is by running this sexp here
-08:20.160 --> 08:21.280
+00:07:58.633 --> 00:08:01.064
+that opens a file in Lua.
+
+00:08:01.065 --> 00:08:05.440
+That is what I use to generate the subtitles.
+
+08:05.440 --> 00:08:10.368
+By the way, each one of these things here
+
+00:08:10.369 --> 00:08:14.680
+is hyperlinked to a position of the video.
+
+08:14.680 --> 00:08:21.280
+If I type this, it goes to that position.
+
+00:08:21.281 --> 00:08:24.580
Anyway, let me go back.
-08:21.920 --> 08:26.640
-Also, the tutorials of Eevee, the intros of Eevee,
+08:24.580 --> 00:08:28.557
+So the tutorials of eev, the intros of eev
+
+00:08:28.558 --> 00:08:32.350
+that start with `find-` and end with `-intro`,
+
+00:08:32.351 --> 00:08:35.332
+they have lots of blocks that say
+
+00:08:35.333 --> 00:08:37.612
+video links like this one.
-08:26.640 --> 08:30.560
-let's start with find, and with intro,
+00:08:37.613 --> 00:08:41.972
+These blocks have links to positions in videos.
-08:30.560 --> 08:35.760
-they have lots of blocks that say video links, like this one,
+00:08:41.973 --> 00:08:46.332
+If we don't have a local copy of the video yet,
-08:36.800 --> 08:40.080
-and these blocks have links to the positions in videos,
+00:08:46.333 --> 00:08:49.015
+the thing shows us a script
-08:40.080 --> 08:43.600
-and if we don't have a local copy of the video yet,
+00:08:49.016 --> 00:08:52.560
+that lets us download the local copy.
-08:44.480 --> 08:48.800
-the thing shows us a script that lets us download the local copy.
+NOTE eev-wconfig, magic, and black boxes
-08:48.880 --> 08:56.720
-Anyway, I said that I was going to explain what I mean by magic and black boxes.
+08:52.560 --> 00:08:57.440
+I said that I was going to explain
-08:59.360 --> 09:02.080
-This is something that I've been trying to explain for a long time,
+00:08:57.441 --> 00:09:01.855
+what I mean by magic and black boxes,
-09:02.080 --> 09:05.840
+00:09:01.856 --> 00:09:03.799
+this is something that I've been trying
+
+00:09:03.800 --> 00:09:05.111
+to explain for a long time
+
+00:09:05.112 --> 00:09:08.761
and I think that I got a very good explanation about that
-09:05.840 --> 09:09.440
-in a video that I made about something called Eevee wconfig,
+00:09:08.762 --> 00:09:12.348
+in a video that I made about something called eev-wconfig
-09:09.440 --> 09:15.120
-that is a tool for configuring Eevee on Windows without magic,
+00:09:12.349 --> 00:09:17.943
+that is a tool for configuring eev on Windows without magic,
-09:15.840 --> 09:20.320
-on Windows without magic, without buttons that do things
+00:09:17.944 --> 00:09:20.878
+without buttons that do things,
-09:21.040 --> 09:22.720
+00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:24.380
without explaining what they are doing.
-09:24.080 --> 09:26.720
+09:24.380 --> 00:09:28.078
This is a part of the subtitles of the video.
-09:26.720 --> 09:27.680
+00:09:28.079 --> 00:09:29.445
Let me read that.
-09:30.080 --> 09:32.640
-Eevee wconfig is an attempt to solve the problem
+00:09:29.446 --> 00:09:32.531
+eev-wconfig is an attempt to solve the problem
-09:32.640 --> 09:35.040
-of how to install these things on Windows,
+00:09:32.532 --> 00:09:35.349
+of how to install these things on Windows
-09:35.040 --> 09:38.240
+00:09:35.350 --> 00:09:40.040
both without magic and with very little magic.
-09:39.520 --> 09:40.640
-Remember this slogan,
+09:40.040 --> 00:09:44.941
+Remember this slogan: "Any sufficiently advanced technology
-09:41.200 --> 09:45.760
-any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
+00:09:44.942 --> 00:09:47.600
+is indistinguishable from magic."
-09:47.280 --> 09:51.600
-Here in this video, I'm going to use the term magic as a shorthand
+09:47.600 --> 00:09:51.433
+Here in this video I'm going to use the term magic
-09:51.600 --> 09:55.520
-for sufficiently advanced technology,
+00:09:51.434 --> 00:09:55.262
+as a shorthand for sufficiently advanced technology
-09:55.520 --> 09:59.040
-that is something that is complex and non-obvious,
+00:09:55.263 --> 00:09:58.944
+that is something that is complex and non obvious
-09:59.040 --> 10:01.840
+00:09:58.945 --> 00:10:01.920
and that is indistinguishable from magic
-10:01.840 --> 10:04.640
+00:10:01.921 --> 00:10:05.840
in the sense of being almost impossible to understand.
-10:05.600 --> 10:10.720
-And I'm also going to use the term black box as a near synonym for magic,
+10:05.840 --> 00:10:09.272
+And I'm also going to use the term black box
+
+00:10:09.273 --> 00:10:11.408
+as a near synonym for magic
+
+00:10:11.409 --> 00:10:15.217
+and sometimes the term black box is more convenient
-10:11.360 --> 10:15.360
-and sometimes the term black box is more convenient,
+00:10:15.218 --> 00:10:17.488
+even though it's a bit longer,
-10:15.360 --> 10:18.800
-even though it's a bit longer, it has more letters,
+00:10:17.489 --> 00:10:21.333
+it has more letters because when I use the term black box
-10:18.800 --> 10:20.880
-because when I use the term black box,
+00:10:21.334 --> 00:10:23.521
+it invites us to use expressions
-10:20.880 --> 10:25.440
-it invites us to use expressions like opening the black box,
+00:10:23.522 --> 00:10:27.872
+like opening the black box
-10:25.440 --> 10:27.840
+00:10:27.873 --> 00:10:34.800
and I'm going to use that expression a lot.
-10:34.640 --> 10:37.360
-Now, let me try to explain what is...
+10:34.800 --> 00:10:40.899
+Now let me try to explain what is. Sorry,
-10:37.360 --> 10:40.400
-Sorry, let me change the font.
+00:10:40.900 --> 00:10:44.240
+let me change the font.
-10:44.000 --> 10:44.800
+NOTE Lua
+
+10:44.240 --> 10:45.240
What is Lua?
-10:46.000 --> 10:51.840
-Lua is a minimalistic language in the sense of batteries not included.

+10:53.040 --> 00:10:57.987
+It uses associative tables for most of its data structures.
-10:58.800 --> 11:02.240
-and it's so minimalistic that it's the default print function.
+00:10:57.988 --> 00:11:00.874
+It's so minimalistic
-11:03.120 --> 11:09.280
-When we create an associative table and we ask it to print...
+00:11:00.875 --> 00:11:05.147
+that the default print function
-11:11.760 --> 11:14.560
-We ask print to print an associative table,
+00:11:05.148 --> 00:11:11.960
+when we create an associative table and we ask it to print--
-11:14.560 --> 11:17.280
+11:11.960 --> 00:11:14.914
+we ask print to print an associative table--
+
+00:11:14.915 --> 00:11:17.600
it just prints the address of the table.
-11:17.280 --> 11:18.480
-Here are some examples.
+11:17.600 --> 00:11:20.902
+Here are some examples. Here is a table
-11:19.920 --> 11:23.760
-Here is a table, and when we ask print to print it,
+00:11:20.903 --> 00:11:23.296
+and when we ask to print it,
-11:23.760 --> 11:26.720
+00:11:23.297 --> 00:11:28.200
it just says that it's the table at this address here.
-11:27.440 --> 11:32.400
-So, one of the things that most people do when they start using Lua
+11:28.200 --> 00:11:30.893
+One of the things that most people do
+
+00:11:30.894 --> 00:11:33.586
+when they start using Lua is that either
-11:32.400 --> 11:36.320
-is that either they download a package with a print to printing function,
+00:11:33.587 --> 00:11:36.313
+they download a package with a print to printing function
-11:36.320 --> 11:38.720
+00:11:36.314 --> 00:11:39.520
or they write their own print to printing functions.
-11:39.360 --> 11:42.000
-My own print to printing function is called pp,
+11:39.520 --> 00:11:41.975
+My own print to printing function
-11:42.000 --> 11:45.840
-with uppercase letters, and it works like this,
+00:11:41.976 --> 00:11:44.450
+is called PP with upper case letters,
-11:47.600 --> 11:50.880
-and it prints associative tables in a way like this.
+00:11:44.451 --> 00:11:46.757
+and it works like this.
-11:50.880 --> 11:54.800
+00:11:46.758 --> 00:11:52.072
+It prints associative tables in a way like this.
+
+00:11:52.073 --> 00:11:54.125
It says that for the key 1,
-11:55.200 --> 11:57.280
-the value associated to it is 2,
+00:11:54.126 --> 00:11:56.602
+the value associated to it is 2;
-11:57.280 --> 11:59.200
-for the key 2, the value is 3,
+00:11:56.603 --> 00:11:59.078
+for the key 2, the value is 3;
-11:59.200 --> 12:01.760
+00:11:59.079 --> 00:12:09.240
and for the key 3, the value is 5.
-12:08.960 --> 12:12.160
+12:09.240 --> 00:12:12.379
When I started using Lua, one of my favorite languages
-12:12.160 --> 12:15.600
+00:12:12.380 --> 00:12:16.623
was also a language that used associative tables a lot.
-12:15.600 --> 12:16.720
-It was called Icon,
-
-12:18.400 --> 12:22.640
-and I had to write my own print to printing functions for Icon.
+00:12:16.624 --> 00:12:20.339
+It was called Icon. I had to write my own
-12:22.720 --> 12:28.800
-So, I just had to port my print to printing functions to Lua,
+00:12:20.340 --> 00:12:23.394
+print to printing functions for Icon,
-12:28.800 --> 12:31.600
-and my first version looked something like this.
+00:12:23.395 --> 00:12:29.425
+so I just had to port my print to printing functions to Lua.
-12:32.240 --> 12:36.560
-It just had some global functions, lots of them actually,
+00:12:29.426 --> 00:12:34.350
+My first version looked something like this.
-12:39.680 --> 12:41.840
-and after a while I rewrote it,
+00:12:34.351 --> 00:12:40.080
+it just had some global functions. Lots of them actually.
-12:41.840 --> 12:44.320
-and I rewrote it again, and again, and again,
+12:40.080 --> 00:12:41.933
+After a while, I rewrote it.
-12:44.320 --> 12:49.200
-and this is one of the versions that is not even the default at this point.
+00:12:41.934 --> 00:12:44.503
+I rewrote it again and again and again.
-12:50.000 --> 12:53.920
-TOS is for toString,
+00:12:44.504 --> 00:12:48.397
+This is one of the versions
-12:56.800 --> 12:57.920
-and this is a demo.
+00:12:48.398 --> 00:12:53.751
+that is not even the default at this point.
-12:58.800 --> 13:04.560
-It's very modular, so it's easy to replace parts of it or to toggle flags,
+00:12:53.752 --> 00:12:57.702
+`tos` is for to string. This is a demo.
-13:04.560 --> 13:05.760
-and this is an example.
+00:12:57.703 --> 00:13:02.905
+It's very modular, so it's easy to replace parts of it
-13:05.760 --> 13:10.320
-If I try to print the table of methods for a certain class,
+00:13:02.906 --> 00:13:06.567
+or to toggle flags. This is an example.
-13:11.760 --> 13:13.040
-I'll need a smaller font,
+00:13:06.568 --> 00:13:11.797
+If I try to print the table of methods for a certain class--
-13:14.320 --> 13:16.480
-it prints the table like this,
+00:13:11.798 --> 00:13:16.245
+I only need a smaller font--it prints the table like this
-13:16.480 --> 13:18.480
-with the names of the methods,
+00:13:16.246 --> 00:13:18.510
+with the names of the methods
-13:18.560 --> 13:21.520
+00:13:18.511 --> 00:13:22.360
and then links to the source code of the functions.
-13:22.080 --> 13:25.360
-These links only make sense in Emacs and in Eevee,
+13:22.360 --> 00:13:26.671
+These links only make sense in Emacs and in eev.
-13:26.000 --> 13:28.560
-and when we run a link like this one,
+00:13:26.672 --> 00:13:30.296
+When we run a link like this one,
-13:29.840 --> 13:33.920
-it shows the source code in the window at the right.
+00:13:30.297 --> 00:13:34.013
+it shows the source code and the window at the right.
-13:33.920 --> 13:37.760
-So, for some functions, the source code is three lines,
+00:13:34.014 --> 00:13:38.647
+For some functions, the source code is three lines.
-13:37.760 --> 13:40.400
-for other ones it's one line, and whatever.
+00:13:38.648 --> 00:13:42.320
+For other ones, it's one line and whatever.
-13:41.920 --> 13:43.200
+13:42.320 --> 00:13:44.149
Anyway, let me go back.
-13:45.360 --> 13:48.000
+00:13:44.150 --> 00:13:47.490
Lua can be used in many different styles.
-13:48.000 --> 13:50.160
+00:13:47.491 --> 00:13:52.240
Most people hate other people's styles.
-13:51.920 --> 13:56.080
+13:52.240 --> 00:13:55.252
When I started using it in the year 2000,
-13:56.080 --> 13:59.040
+00:13:55.253 --> 00:13:59.566
I learned most of the basic language in a single day.
-13:59.040 --> 14:02.000
-It was very similar to things that I was already using,
+00:13:59.567 --> 00:14:04.042
+It was very similar to things that I was already using.
-14:02.800 --> 14:08.560
-and then I rewrote the mini language that I was using
+00:14:04.043 --> 00:14:08.388
+Then I rewrote the mini language
-14:08.560 --> 14:14.800
-to generate the HTML for my pages in Lua.
+00:14:08.389 --> 00:14:15.200
+that I was using to generate the HTML for my pages in Lua.
-14:14.800 --> 14:16.960
-Actually, I had to rewrite it many times,
+14:15.200 --> 00:14:17.591
+Actually, I had to rewrite it many times
-14:16.960 --> 14:20.880
-but the first version I certainly did in my first weeks
+00:14:17.592 --> 00:14:21.367
+but the first version I certainly did
-14:20.880 --> 14:22.480
-or first months using Lua.
+00:14:21.368 --> 00:14:25.740
+in my first weeks or first months using Lua.
-14:25.520 --> 14:29.040
+14:25.740 --> 00:14:29.653
In the beginning, I was just using it for writing programs
-14:29.040 --> 14:32.160
-that either didn't take in any input at all,
+00:14:29.654 --> 00:14:32.876
+that either didn't take any input at all
-14:32.160 --> 14:35.280
+00:14:32.877 --> 00:14:36.727
because the input was already in the source file,
-14:35.280 --> 14:39.200
-or that worked as a Unix function,
+00:14:36.728 --> 00:14:39.400
+or that worked as a Unix function:
-14:39.200 --> 14:42.960
-the Unix programs that would read files
+14:39.400 --> 00:14:42.451
+the Unix programs that would read files,
-14:42.960 --> 14:46.160
-and process these files in some way and output something.
+00:14:42.452 --> 00:14:49.560
+process these files in some way, and output something.
-14:47.840 --> 14:52.480
-I mentioned the basic language here.
+14:49.560 --> 00:14:52.200
+I mentioned the basic language here,
-14:52.480 --> 14:55.520
-I only learned how to use closures, metatables,
+00:14:52.201 --> 00:14:55.625
+I only learned how to use closures, meta tables,
-14:55.520 --> 14:58.240
+00:14:55.626 --> 00:15:00.600
and coroutines many years later.
-15:00.320 --> 15:02.240
-In the beginning, when I started using Lua,
+15:00.600 --> 00:15:02.588
+In the beginning when I started using Lua
-15:02.240 --> 15:04.080
+00:15:02.589 --> 00:15:04.199
it didn't have a package manager.
-15:04.080 --> 15:05.200
-It appeared later.
+00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:08.299
+It appeared later. It is called luarocks.
-15:05.200 --> 15:06.560
-It is called Lua-rocks.
-
-15:07.680 --> 15:11.600
+00:15:08.300 --> 00:15:13.180
It has had this package manager for several years.
-15:12.720 --> 15:15.520
-Most of the rocks for Lua-rocks are poorly documented,
+15:13.180 --> 00:15:17.242
+Most of the rocks for luarocks are poorly documented
-15:16.480 --> 15:19.040
-documented, and hacker-unfriendly,
+00:15:17.243 --> 00:15:18.897
+and hacker-unfriendly.
-15:19.040 --> 15:21.600
-so you can't rely just on the documentation,
+00:15:18.898 --> 00:15:22.079
+You can't rely just on the documentation.
-15:22.160 --> 15:24.320
-and you can't rely just on the source code,
+00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:25.188
+You can't rely just on the source code,
-15:24.320 --> 15:28.320
-because, I mean, if you're a genius, of course you can,
+00:15:25.189 --> 00:15:28.706
+because--I mean, if you're a genius, of course you can,
-15:28.320 --> 15:32.320
-but for people who are either lazy or dumb or whatever,
+00:15:28.707 --> 00:15:31.544
+but for people who are either
-15:32.320 --> 15:33.920
-like me, or unfocused,

+lazy or dumb or whatever like me, or unfocused,
-15:35.120 --> 15:37.120
+00:15:35.896 --> 00:15:39.490
the source code is hard to understand
-15:37.120 --> 15:38.800
+00:15:39.491 --> 00:15:41.760
and hard to tinker with.
-15:41.440 --> 15:43.040
+15:41.760 --> 00:15:43.760
Some rocks are excellent.
-15:43.040 --> 15:46.640
+00:15:43.761 --> 00:15:46.452
The best rocks are well documented,
-15:46.640 --> 15:48.640
-but they are hacker-unfriendly,
+00:15:46.453 --> 00:15:48.760
+but they are hacker-unfriendly
-15:48.640 --> 15:51.840
+15:48.760 --> 15:53.640
in the sense that I hope that I'll be able to explain soon.
-15:53.440 --> 15:58.560
-The best rocks use local variables and metatables a lot,
+15:53.640 --> 00:15:59.466
+The best rocks use local variables and meta tables a lot,
-15:59.280 --> 16:03.120
-so if you are a beginner learning Lua,
+00:15:59.467 --> 00:16:02.905
+so if you are a beginner learning Lua
-16:03.120 --> 16:06.080
+00:16:02.906 --> 00:16:08.245
you're not going to understand what their source codes do.
-16:06.080 --> 16:08.320
+00:16:08.246 --> 00:16:10.960
They use lots of dirty tricks.
-16:08.640 --> 16:12.240
+NOTE Object orientation in Lua
+
+16:10.960 --> 16:14.360
Let me talk a bit about object orientation in Lua.
-16:12.240 --> 16:13.840
-It can be done in many ways.
+16:14.360 --> 00:16:18.275
+It can be done in many ways. The main book about Lua
-16:15.360 --> 16:18.000
-The main book about Lua, called Programming in Lua,
+00:16:18.276 --> 00:16:20.140
+called Programming in Lua
-16:18.000 --> 16:20.240
-by one of the authors of the language,
+00:16:20.141 --> 00:16:22.865
+by one of the authors of the language
-16:21.120 --> 16:22.320
-Roberto Ierzalimschi,
+00:16:22.866 --> 00:16:24.729
+called Roberto Ierusalimschy
-16:23.200 --> 16:26.960
+00:16:24.730 --> 00:16:28.680
presents several ways of doing object orientation in Lua.
-16:26.960 --> 16:29.040
+16:28.680 --> 00:16:31.386
I hated all of these ways,
-16:29.840 --> 16:32.720
+00:16:31.387 --> 00:16:36.056
and also the ways that I tried from the rocks.
-16:34.400 --> 16:36.880
-And then I wrote my own way,
+00:16:36.057 --> 00:16:37.933
+Then I wrote my own way
-16:37.360 --> 16:40.160
-wrote my own way of doing object orientation in Lua.
+00:16:37.934 --> 00:16:40.347
+of doing object orientation in Lua.
-16:40.160 --> 16:41.440
-It's very minimalistic.
+00:16:40.348 --> 00:16:45.653
+It's very minimalistic. It's in this file here eoo.lua.
-16:42.000 --> 16:45.120
-It's in this file here, eoo.lua.
+00:16:45.654 --> 00:16:49.898
+The main code is just these five lines here.
-16:47.040 --> 16:49.440
-The main code is just these five lines here,
+00:16:49.899 --> 00:16:56.400
+Here's an example of how it works.
-16:50.640 --> 16:53.120
-and here's an example of how it works.
+16:56.400 --> 00:17:03.001
+We define a class vector with some meta methods.
-16:56.080 --> 17:02.640
-Here we define a class vector with some metamethods.
+00:17:03.002 --> 00:17:06.294
+This meta method here will tell Lua
-17:02.640 --> 17:07.920
-This metamethod here will tell Lua what to do
+00:17:06.295 --> 00:17:10.867
+what to do when the user asks to add two vectors.
-17:07.920 --> 17:11.040
-when the user asks to add two vectors.
-
-17:11.600 --> 17:14.320
+00:17:10.868 --> 00:17:13.986
This one here tells Lua what to do
-17:14.320 --> 17:18.320
-when the user asks Lua to convert a vector to a string,
+00:17:13.987 --> 00:17:18.888
+when the user asks Lua to convert a vector to a string
-17:18.880 --> 17:20.640
-and whatever.
+00:17:18.889 --> 00:17:22.007
+and whatever. This one is something
-17:20.640 --> 17:23.920
-This one is something that I'm going to explain in a second.
+00:17:22.008 --> 00:17:25.580
+that I'm going to explain in a second.
-17:25.360 --> 17:28.240
-So here we create a vector with these coordinates,
+17:25.580 --> 00:17:25.580
+Here we create a vector
-17:28.240 --> 17:29.360
-three and four.
+00:17:25.580 --> 00:17:25.580
+with these coordinates 3 and 4.
-17:29.360 --> 17:31.360
+00:17:25.581 --> 00:17:25.580
Here we create another vector.
-17:31.360 --> 17:35.200
-If we print here, then Lua uses the function here
+17:31.600 --> 00:17:33.030
+If we print here,
-17:35.200 --> 17:36.160
-in the toString.
+00:17:33.031 --> 00:17:37.153
+then Lua uses the function here in the `__tostring`.
-17:37.200 --> 17:40.880
-If we add two vectors, it uses the function here
+00:17:37.154 --> 00:17:38.907
+If we add two vectors
-17:40.880 --> 17:42.400
-in the add metamethod.
+00:17:38.908 --> 00:17:42.653
+it uses the function here in the `__add` meta method.
-17:42.960 --> 17:45.280
-And if we run the method norm,
+00:17:42.654 --> 00:17:45.044
+If we run the method `norm`,
-17:45.280 --> 17:49.760
+00:17:45.045 --> 00:17:51.680
it is defined here in the table index.
-17:51.280 --> 17:51.780
-Anyway.
-
-17:52.740 --> 17:54.740
-Even this thing being so small,
+17:51.680 --> 00:17:57.675
+Anyway, even with this thing being so small,
-17:54.740 --> 17:58.500
-I used to forget how it's in odds worked all the time.
+00:17:57.676 --> 00:18:04.617
+I used to forget how it works all the time.
-17:58.500 --> 18:01.700
+00:18:04.618 --> 00:18:08.200
Actually, I always forget how things work,
-18:01.700 --> 18:03.940
+00:18:08.201 --> 00:18:11.347
and I have to remember them somehow.
-18:03.940 --> 18:07.940
-And I have to have tricks for remembering
-
-18:07.940 --> 18:11.940
-and tricks for summarizing things and diagrams and so on.
+00:18:11.348 --> 00:18:14.920
+I have to have tricks for remembering,
-18:13.540 --> 18:15.940
-And every time that I forgot how to do it,
+00:18:14.921 --> 00:18:19.769
+and tricks for summarizing things and diagrams, and so on.
-18:15.940 --> 18:17.220
-I just go back to the code.
+00:18:19.770 --> 00:18:23.309
+Every time that I forgot how this thing worked,
-18:17.220 --> 18:18.420
-I just go back to the code.
+00:18:23.310 --> 00:18:25.460
+I went back to the source code
-18:18.500 --> 18:23.140
-And every time that I forgot how this thing worked,
+00:18:25.461 --> 00:18:28.148
+and then I looked at the diagrams,
-18:23.140 --> 18:25.540
-I went back to the source code,
+00:18:28.149 --> 00:18:30.994
+or, of course, the first time,
-18:25.540 --> 18:27.380
-and then I looked at the diagrams.
+00:18:30.995 --> 00:18:33.800
+I had to draw the diagrams. I run the examples.
-18:27.380 --> 18:29.940
-Or, of course, in the first time,
+00:18:33.801 --> 00:18:35.539
+Of course, in the beginning
-18:29.940 --> 18:31.460
-I had to draw the diagrams.
-
-18:32.260 --> 18:34.420
-And I run the examples.
-
-18:34.420 --> 18:35.780
-And, of course, in the beginning,
-
-18:35.780 --> 18:37.460
+00:18:35.540 --> 00:18:37.503
I thought that the code was clear.
-18:37.460 --> 18:38.900
+00:18:37.504 --> 00:18:39.737
My examples were very brief.
-18:38.900 --> 18:42.820
-And so I had to rewrite the examples many times
+00:18:39.738 --> 00:18:43.565
+So I had to rewrite the examples many times
-18:42.820 --> 18:46.420
-until they became, let's say, perfect.
+00:18:43.566 --> 00:18:50.880
+until they became let's say perfect.
-18:48.660 --> 18:53.220
-And I was saying that Lua can be used in many ways.
+18:50.880 --> 00:18:54.090
+I was saying that Lua can be used in many ways
-18:53.780 --> 18:57.700
-And in my way of using Lua, my favorite way,
+00:18:54.091 --> 00:18:58.403
+and in my way of using Lua, in my favorite way,
-18:57.700 --> 19:02.020
-everything can be inspected and modified from REPLs,
+00:18:58.404 --> 00:19:03.075
+everything can be inspected and modified from REPLs
-19:03.140 --> 19:07.140
-like we can do in MX and in Smalltalk, or sort of.
+00:19:03.076 --> 00:19:06.817
+like we can do in Emacs and in SmallTalk, sort of.
-19:07.860 --> 19:09.940
-So in my favorite way of using Lua,
+00:19:06.818 --> 00:19:09.436
+In my favorite way of using Lua
-19:09.940 --> 19:11.860
+00:19:09.437 --> 00:19:11.531
there's no security at all.
-19:11.860 --> 19:14.740
+00:19:11.532 --> 00:19:17.460
Everything can be changed at all times.
-19:15.140 --> 19:16.980
+19:17.460 --> 00:19:19.822
Of course, most people hate that.
-19:17.780 --> 19:20.180
-My init file has lots of classes.
+NOTE My init file
-19:20.820 --> 19:24.100
-And, by the way, instead of keeping many small files
+00:19:19.823 --> 00:19:22.185
+My init file has lots of classes,
-19:24.100 --> 19:25.140
-with many things,
+00:19:22.186 --> 00:19:24.701
+and by the way, instead of
-19:25.140 --> 19:29.300
-I put lots of stuff in just one big init file.
+00:19:24.702 --> 00:19:28.636
+keeping many small files with many things,
-19:31.060 --> 19:33.860
-My init file has lots of classes
+00:19:28.637 --> 00:19:33.000
+I put lots of stuff in just one big init file.
-19:33.860 --> 19:36.660
-and lots of global functions and lots of crafts.
+19:33.000 --> 00:19:35.520
+My init file has lots of classes,
-19:36.660 --> 19:40.020
-So people hate that, of course.
+00:19:35.521 --> 00:19:39.187
+and lots of global functions and lots of cruft,
-19:41.380 --> 19:42.580
-This is an example.
+00:19:39.188 --> 00:19:43.700
+so people hate that, of course.
-19:43.460 --> 19:44.500
+19:43.700 --> 00:19:46.340
This is an example.
-19:44.500 --> 19:48.260
+00:19:46.341 --> 00:19:52.415
This is the index at the top of my init file.
-19:50.580 --> 19:52.820
-The classes start here.
-
-19:55.060 --> 19:57.220
-And then we have some functions.
-
-19:57.780 --> 20:02.500
-And then we have functions that load certain packages.
+00:19:52.416 --> 00:19:57.541
+The classes start here. Then we have some functions
-20:02.500 --> 20:03.540
-And then we have craft.
+00:19:57.542 --> 00:20:02.480
+and then we have functions that load certain packages,
-20:04.260 --> 20:04.760
-Whatever.
+20:02.480 --> 20:06.580
+and then we have cruft, whatever.
-20:06.180 --> 20:08.580
+20:06.580 --> 00:20:08.923
Most people think that my style of using Lua
-20:08.580 --> 20:10.340
-is dirty and dangerous.
+00:20:08.924 --> 00:20:10.122
+is dirty and dangerous,
-20:10.340 --> 20:11.860
-And they wouldn't touch my Lua code.
+00:20:10.123 --> 00:20:14.287
+and they wouldn't touch my Lua code with a 10 feet pole,
-20:12.100 --> 20:13.140
-With a 10-feet pole.
+00:20:14.288 --> 00:20:15.968
+but most of the things
-20:14.740 --> 20:18.100
-But most of the things that I'm going to present here
+00:20:15.969 --> 00:20:19.256
+that I'm going to present here in this presentation
-20:18.100 --> 20:20.740
-in this presentation are ideas that should be easy
+00:20:19.257 --> 00:20:23.050
+are ideas that should be easy to port to other environments
-20:20.740 --> 20:24.180
-to port to other environments and other languages.
+00:20:23.051 --> 00:20:27.738
+and other languages, especially the diagrams,
-20:24.180 --> 20:25.780
-Especially the diagrams.
+00:20:27.739 --> 00:20:31.000
+so the code is not so important.
-20:25.780 --> 20:27.620
-So the code is not so important.
+NOTE LaTeX and LuaLaTeX
-20:30.740 --> 20:33.140
-Now let me talk a bit about LaTeX.
+20:31.000 --> 00:20:34.640
+Now let me talk a bit about LaTeX, LuaLaTeX,
-20:33.140 --> 20:33.860
-Lua LaTeX.
+00:20:34.641 --> 00:20:39.249
+that is LaTeX with the Lua interpreter embedded inside
-20:33.860 --> 20:38.820
-That is LaTeX with the Lua interpreter embedded inside.
+00:20:39.250 --> 00:20:43.182
+and two ways of generating pictures in LaTeX:
-20:39.380 --> 20:43.300
-And two ways of generating pictures in LaTeX.
+00:20:43.183 --> 00:20:45.115
+TikZ that is very famous,
-20:43.300 --> 20:44.820
-Text that is very famous.
+00:20:45.116 --> 00:20:48.311
+and Pict2e that is not very famous
-20:44.820 --> 20:47.300
-And picture that is not very famous.
+00:20:48.312 --> 00:20:50.644
+and that is very low level,
-20:47.300 --> 20:48.900
-And that is very low level.
+00:20:50.645 --> 00:20:53.840
+and I think that not many people use.
-20:48.900 --> 20:51.700
-And I think that not many people use.
-
-20:53.700 --> 20:57.300
+20:53.840 --> 00:20:57.048
I said before that when I learned Lua,
-20:57.300 --> 21:01.540
-I realized that it was very good for writing little languages.
+00:20:57.049 --> 00:21:00.354
+I realized that it was very good
-21:03.220 --> 21:05.220
-I was doing my PhD at the time.
+00:21:00.355 --> 00:21:03.360
+for writing literal languages.
-21:05.300 --> 21:11.220
-And typesetting the diagrams for my PhD thesis was very boring.
+21:03.360 --> 00:21:05.986
+I was doing my PhD at the time
-21:11.220 --> 21:14.100
-So one of the things that I did was that I created
+00:21:05.987 --> 00:21:09.969
+and typesetting the diagrams for my PhD thesis
-21:14.980 --> 21:17.540
-a little language for typesetting the diagrams for me.
+00:21:09.970 --> 00:21:11.240
+was very boring.
-21:19.140 --> 21:20.900
-It was called DEDNOT.
+21:11.240 --> 00:21:13.864
+One of the things that I did was that
-21:20.900 --> 21:25.300
-Because initially it only generated diagrams
+00:21:13.865 --> 00:21:15.720
+I created a literal language
-21:25.300 --> 21:26.820
-for natural deduction.
+00:21:15.721 --> 00:21:19.340
+for typesetting the diagrams for me.
-21:26.820 --> 21:28.580
-And then it had several versions.
+21:19.340 --> 00:21:22.821
+It was called Dednat because initially
-21:30.180 --> 21:34.420
-These are the slides for my presentation about DEDNOT6.
+00:21:22.822 --> 00:21:26.800
+it only generated diagrams for natural deduction
-21:34.420 --> 21:39.140
-And DEDNOT6 is an extensible semi-preprocessor for Lua LaTeX
+21:26.800 --> 21:30.440
+and then it had several versions.
-21:39.140 --> 21:41.780
-that understands diagrams in ASCII art.
+21:30.440 --> 00:21:34.379
+These are the slides from my presentation about Dednat6
-21:42.340 --> 21:48.740
-In the sense that when I have a LaTeX file that has this.
+00:21:34.380 --> 00:21:38.990
+and Dednat6 is an extensible semi preprocessor
-21:49.380 --> 21:51.860
-And when DEDNOT6 is loaded.
+00:21:38.991 --> 00:21:43.691
+for LuaLaTeX that understands diagrams in ASCII art
-21:53.220 --> 21:58.820
-When I give the right commands, DEDNOT6 interprets this block here
+00:21:43.692 --> 00:21:49.034
+in the sense that when I have a TeX file that has this,
-21:58.820 --> 22:00.980
-as something that defines this diagram.
+00:21:49.035 --> 00:21:52.143
+and when Dednat6 is loaded,
-22:02.260 --> 22:03.540
-Oops, sorry.
+00:21:52.144 --> 00:21:55.708
+when I get the right comments,
-22:05.380 --> 22:07.540
-It interprets this diagram here.
+00:21:55.709 --> 00:22:00.342
+Dednat6 interprets this block here
-22:08.340 --> 22:10.900
-This diagram in the comments here
+00:22:00.343 --> 00:22:05.095
+as something that defines this diagram.
-22:11.460 --> 22:14.260
-as something that defines a diagram called foo,
+00:22:05.096 --> 00:22:07.828
+It interprets this diagram here,
-22:14.260 --> 22:16.100
-a deduction called foo.
+00:22:07.829 --> 00:22:10.643
+this diagram in the comments here,
-22:16.100 --> 22:19.140
-And it generates this code here.
+00:22:10.644 --> 00:22:16.432
+as something that defines a diagram called `foo`,
-22:19.940 --> 22:27.300
-So that we can just invoke the definition of the deduction
+00:22:16.433 --> 00:22:23.064
+a deduction called `foo`, and it generates this code here
-22:27.300 --> 22:30.260
-by typing backslash DED foo.
+00:22:23.065 --> 00:22:28.867
+so that we can just invoke the definition of the deduction
-22:31.220 --> 22:37.140
-And DEDNOT6 also supports another language
+00:22:28.868 --> 00:22:31.720
+by typing `\ded{foo}`.
-22:37.140 --> 22:39.860
-for typesetting bi-dimensional diagrams
+22:31.720 --> 00:22:36.148
+Dednat6 also supports another language
-22:39.860 --> 22:42.660
-with arrows and stuff for category theory and blah blah.
+00:22:36.149 --> 00:22:40.579
+for typesetting bidimensional diagrams with arrows and stuff
-22:44.180 --> 22:46.900
-The specifications of these diagrams look like this.
+00:22:40.580 --> 00:22:43.122
+for category theory and blah blah.
-22:49.540 --> 22:53.540
-Here is a very good example.
+00:22:43.123 --> 00:22:46.100
+The specifications of these diagrams
-22:55.540 --> 22:56.980
-This is a huge diagram.
+22:46.100 --> 00:22:53.865
+look like this. Here is a very good example.
-22:58.420 --> 22:59.460
-Sorry, one second.
+00:22:53.866 --> 00:23:00.940
+This is a huge diagram. Sorry, one second.
-23:00.740 --> 23:03.620
+23:00.940 --> 00:23:04.757
So the source code that generates this diagram here
-23:03.620 --> 23:05.140
-is just this thing at the left.
-
-23:07.220 --> 23:08.340
-So it's very visual.
+00:23:04.758 --> 00:23:08.628
+is just this thing at the left. It's very visual.
-23:09.220 --> 23:12.340
+00:23:08.629 --> 00:23:11.842
We can typeset the diagram in ASCII art here.
-23:12.340 --> 23:13.780
-And then in this part here,
+00:23:11.843 --> 00:23:14.434
+Then in this part here,
-23:13.780 --> 23:16.660
+00:23:14.435 --> 00:23:18.273
we tell how the nodes are to be joined,
-23:17.620 --> 23:20.660
-which arrows have to have annotations and so on.
+00:23:18.274 --> 00:23:22.880
+which arrows have to have annotations, and so on.
-23:22.420 --> 23:25.460
-And this language is extensible in the sense that...
+23:22.880 --> 00:23:30.950
+This language is extensible in the sense that
-23:25.780 --> 23:26.580
-Where is that?
+00:23:30.951 --> 00:23:37.280
+here, comments that start
-23:32.020 --> 23:32.520
-Here.
+23:37.280 --> 00:23:42.690
+with `%:` are interpreted as definitions
-23:34.420 --> 23:36.660
-Comments that start with percent colon
+00:23:42.691 --> 00:23:44.819
+for tree diagrams,
-23:37.940 --> 23:41.620
-are interpreted as definitions for three diagrams.
+00:23:44.820 --> 00:23:49.394
+lines that start with `%D`
-23:43.620 --> 23:47.220
-Lines that start with percent uppercase D
+00:23:49.395 --> 00:23:53.761
+define 2D diagrams with arrows and stuff,
-23:47.220 --> 23:52.260
-define 2D diagrams with arrows and stuff.
+00:23:53.762 --> 00:23:57.683
+and lines that start with command `%L`
-23:52.740 --> 23:58.020
-And lines that start with comment uppercase L
+00:23:57.684 --> 00:24:01.197
+contain blocks of Lua code that we can use
-23:58.660 --> 24:00.580
-contain blocks of Lua code
+00:24:01.198 --> 00:24:05.527
+to extend the interpreter on the flag.
-24:00.580 --> 24:04.180
-that we can use to extend the interpreter on the flag.
+00:24:05.528 --> 00:24:09.746
+Anyway, here are some recent examples
-24:06.020 --> 24:09.860
-Anyway, here are some recent examples of diagrams
+00:24:09.747 --> 00:24:16.146
+of diagrams that I used Dednat6 to typeset.
-24:09.860 --> 24:14.580
-that I used DEDNOT6 to typeset.
+00:24:16.147 --> 00:24:24.494
+This diagram here was generated by this specification here,
-24:15.780 --> 24:17.220
-This diagram here
+00:24:24.495 --> 00:24:30.619
+and this diagram here with the curved arrows
-24:17.780 --> 24:20.580
+00:24:30.620 --> 00:24:36.200
was generated by this specification here.
-24:23.460 --> 24:26.980
-And this diagram here with the curved arrows
-
-24:27.780 --> 24:30.580
-was generated by this specification here.
-
-24:34.180 --> 24:37.220
-So DEDNOT6 was very easy to extend.
-
-24:37.220 --> 24:38.260
-At that some point,
+24:36.200 --> 00:24:39.174
+Dednat6 was very easy to extend.
-24:38.260 --> 24:42.820
-I started to use it to generate diagrams using Peaked Chewy,
+00:24:39.175 --> 00:24:43.043
+At some point I started to use it to generate diagrams
-24:42.820 --> 24:45.540
-mainly for the classes that I gave you.
+00:24:43.044 --> 00:24:46.067
+using Pict2e, mainly for the classes
-24:45.540 --> 24:48.420
-For the classes that I give at the university.
+00:24:46.068 --> 00:24:49.673
+that I give at the university,
-24:48.420 --> 24:50.900
-I teach mathematics and whatever.
+00:24:49.674 --> 00:24:53.861
+I teach mathematics in a place.
-24:51.860 --> 24:52.900
-In a bad place.
+00:24:53.862 --> 00:24:58.979
+Let me show an animation. Here is a diagram
-24:52.900 --> 24:53.400
-Whatever.
+00:24:58.980 --> 00:25:02.325
+that I generated with Dednat6.
-24:56.260 --> 24:58.500
-Let me show an animation.
+00:25:02.326 --> 00:25:05.385
+It is a flipbook animation,
-24:59.060 --> 25:02.420
-Here is a diagram that I generated with DEDNOT6.
+00:25:05.386 --> 00:25:08.253
+we type page up and page down,
-25:02.980 --> 25:05.300
-And it is a flipbook animation.
-
-25:05.300 --> 25:08.740
-Like we type page up and page down
-
-25:08.740 --> 25:10.660
+00:25:08.254 --> 00:25:10.783
and we go to the next page of the book
-25:10.660 --> 25:12.340
+00:25:10.784 --> 00:25:13.248
and to the previous page of the book.
-25:13.060 --> 25:15.940
-And here is the source code that generates that.
+00:25:13.249 --> 00:25:16.924
+Here is the source code that generates that.
-25:16.980 --> 25:19.140
-This source code is not very visual.
+00:25:16.925 --> 00:25:19.700
+This source code is not very visual,
-25:19.140 --> 25:22.740
-So it's quite clumsy to edit a diagram
+00:25:19.701 --> 00:25:21.800
+so it's quite clumsy to edit
-25:22.740 --> 25:25.460
-directly in the tag file like that.
+25:21.800 --> 25:28.280
+a diagram directly in the TeX file like that.
-25:28.020 --> 25:31.860
-These diagrams were inspired by something called Manim.
+NOTE Manim
-25:32.500 --> 25:33.000
-That's...
+25:28.280 --> 00:25:33.437
+These diagrams were inspired by something called Manim.
-25:34.580 --> 25:36.340
-Oh, I've forgotten the name of the guy.
+00:25:33.438 --> 00:25:36.713
+I've forgotten the name of the guy, but it's a guy
-25:36.340 --> 25:39.300
-But it's a guy that makes many videos about mathematics.
+00:25:36.714 --> 00:25:39.346
+that makes many videos about mathematics,
-25:39.300 --> 25:41.780
-And he created this library called Manim
+00:25:39.347 --> 00:25:43.373
+and he created this library called Manim
-25:41.780 --> 25:43.460
+00:25:43.374 --> 00:25:46.417
for generating his animations.
-25:45.540 --> 25:51.460
+00:25:46.418 --> 00:25:52.083
Other people adapted his library to make it more accessible.
-25:52.580 --> 25:53.700
-I tried to learn it.
+00:25:52.084 --> 00:25:55.799
+I tried to learn it, but each animation,
-25:53.700 --> 25:55.700
-But each animation,
-
-25:57.060 --> 25:59.220
+00:25:55.800 --> 00:25:59.191
even an animation with very few frames,
-25:59.220 --> 26:01.300
-each animation took ages to render.
-
-26:01.300 --> 26:03.060
-So it wasn't fun.
+00:25:59.192 --> 00:26:03.770
+each animation took ages to render, so it wasn't fun.
-26:03.700 --> 26:07.060
-And animations and PDFs can be rendered in seconds.
+00:26:03.771 --> 00:26:08.345
+Animations and PDFs can be rendered in seconds,
-26:07.940 --> 26:11.060
-So these things were fun for me
+00:26:08.346 --> 00:26:11.160
+so these things were fun for me
-26:11.060 --> 26:15.300
+00:26:11.161 --> 00:26:17.440
because my laptop is very slow and Manim was not fun.
-26:20.100 --> 26:26.020
-Anyway, writing code like this inside the attack file
+26:17.440 --> 00:26:24.263
+Anyway, writing code like this inside a TeX file
-26:26.020 --> 26:29.620
+00:26:24.264 --> 00:26:30.879
was not very fun because it was hard to debug.
-26:30.500 --> 26:35.860
-So in 2022, I started to play with ways
-
-26:35.860 --> 26:40.340
-of generating these diagrams from REPLs.
-
-26:40.980 --> 26:44.500
-And I found a way for PIC2E and a way for TIX.
-
-26:45.380 --> 26:47.780
-Each one of these ways became a video.
-
-26:48.740 --> 26:53.780
-If you go to the list of first class videos of EEV,
-
-26:53.780 --> 26:57.540
-you're going to see that there's a video about PIC2E here
-
-26:57.540 --> 26:58.740
-and a video about TIX.
-
-27:00.340 --> 27:07.540
-Here you have some information like length and explanation, etc.
-
-27:08.180 --> 27:10.420
-And here are the pages for these videos.
-
-27:12.420 --> 27:15.860
-My page about the video, about PIC2E is like this.
+NOTE Generating diagrams from REPLs
-27:15.860 --> 27:18.740
-It has some diagrams, whatever.
+00:26:30.880 --> 00:26:36.510
+In 2022, I started to play with ways
-27:18.740 --> 27:20.980
-And this one is much nicer.
+00:26:36.511 --> 00:26:42.000
+of generating these diagrams from REPLs
-27:20.980 --> 27:26.100
-And a lot of people watched that video.
+26:42.000 --> 00:26:46.309
+and I found a way for Pict2e and a way for Tikz.
-27:26.100 --> 27:30.260
-I mean, I thought that 250 people watched it.
-
-27:30.900 --> 27:33.940
-For me, that's a million of people.
-
-27:36.660 --> 27:42.900
-And this video is about how to extract diagrams from the TIX manual
-
-27:42.900 --> 27:47.700
-and how to run those examples in a REPL
-
-27:47.700 --> 27:49.780
-and modify them bit by bit.
-
-27:49.780 --> 27:51.380
-This is a screenshot.
-
-27:52.100 --> 27:53.620
-But let me go back.
+00:26:46.310 --> 00:26:49.520
+Each one of these ways became a video.
-27:56.420 --> 27:59.700
-At that point, these things were just prototypes.
+26:49.520 --> 00:26:53.220
+If you go to the list of first class videos of eev,
-27:59.700 --> 28:01.460
-The code was not very nice.
+00:26:53.221 --> 00:26:55.088
+you're going to see
-28:02.020 --> 28:10.500
-And in this year, I was able to unify those two ways of generating PDFs,
+00:26:55.089 --> 00:26:59.010
+that there's a video about Pict2e here
-28:11.380 --> 28:14.100
-the one for TIX and the one for PIC2E.
+00:26:59.011 --> 00:27:01.158
+and a video about Tikz.
-28:14.100 --> 28:18.740
-And I unified them with many other things that generated diagrams.
+00:27:01.159 --> 00:27:04.187
+Here you have some information
-28:19.220 --> 28:27.460
-The basis of these things is something called showchew.lua.
+00:27:04.188 --> 00:27:07.508
+like length and explanation, etc.
-28:27.460 --> 28:31.380
-I'm not going to show its details now.
+00:27:07.509 --> 00:27:11.513
+Here are the pages for these videos.
-28:32.100 --> 28:40.420
-But its extension that generates TIX code is just this.
+00:27:11.514 --> 00:27:15.991
+My page about the video about Pict2e is like this.
-28:40.420 --> 28:45.540
-So we can specify a diagram with just a block like this.
+00:27:15.992 --> 00:27:20.800
+It has some diagrams. This one is much nicer.
-28:46.260 --> 28:54.180
-And then if we run show00 and it returns a string
+27:20.800 --> 00:27:26.605
+A lot of people watched that video. I mean,
-28:54.180 --> 28:58.580
-that is just the inner body of the TIX file.
+00:27:26.606 --> 00:27:31.080
+I thought that 250 people watched it.
-28:59.220 --> 29:02.020
-If we run this, we see the whole TIX file.
+27:31.080 --> 00:27:35.344
+For me, that's a million of people.
-29:02.020 --> 29:04.340
-And if we run this, we save the TIX file
+00:27:35.345 --> 00:27:40.402
+This video is about how to extract diagrams
-29:04.340 --> 29:08.420
-and we compile the TIX file to generate a PDF.
+00:27:40.403 --> 00:27:46.512
+from the Tikz manual, and how to run those examples in REPL
-29:08.420 --> 29:14.180
-And if we run this, we show the PDF in the lower right window.
+00:27:46.513 --> 00:27:52.936
+and modify them bit by bit. This is a screenshot.
-29:16.020 --> 29:20.740
-And that's the same thing for all my recent programs that generate PDFs.
+00:27:52.937 --> 00:27:57.432
+Let me go back. At that point,
-29:21.620 --> 29:22.980
-They are all integrated.
+00:27:57.433 --> 00:28:01.800
+these things were just prototypes,
-29:24.500 --> 29:30.660
-Here is the one that the basis for all my modules that generate diagrams with PIC2E.
+28:01.800 --> 00:28:04.803
+the code was not very nice,
-29:33.060 --> 29:34.980
-Its demos are not very interesting.
+00:28:04.804 --> 00:28:07.592
+and in this year I wrote...
-29:34.980 --> 29:39.700
-So let me show some demos of extensions that do interesting things.
+00:28:07.593 --> 00:28:12.123
+I was able to unify those two ways of generating PDFs,
-29:40.660 --> 29:47.220
-So this is a diagram that I created by editing it in a REPL.
+00:28:12.124 --> 00:28:15.665
+the one for Tikz and the one for Pict2e.
-29:48.820 --> 29:51.220
-I create several PIC2E objects here.
+00:28:15.666 --> 00:28:19.196
+I unified them with many other things
-29:52.500 --> 29:58.660
-And if I execute this, it compiles the object, generates a PDF.
+00:28:19.197 --> 00:28:21.298
+that generated diagrams.
-29:58.660 --> 30:03.860
-And if I tap this, here is the PDF.
+00:28:21.299 --> 00:28:28.430
+The basis of these things is something called Show2.lua.
-30:04.740 --> 30:10.020
-And if I just ask Lua to display what is books here,
+00:28:28.431 --> 00:28:33.935
+I'm not going to just show its details now,
-30:11.700 --> 30:17.220
-it shows the source code in PIC2E of the diagram.
+00:28:33.936 --> 00:28:38.775
+but it's an extension that generates Tikz code.
-30:17.940 --> 30:20.340
-And the nice thing is that it is indented.
+00:28:38.776 --> 00:28:43.305
+It's just this. We can specify a diagram
-30:20.340 --> 30:23.460
-So it's easy to debug the PIC2E code.
+00:28:43.306 --> 00:28:50.538
+with just a block like this, and then if we run `show00`,
-30:24.340 --> 30:30.180
-If anyone is interested, the module that does the tricks for indentation
+00:28:50.539 --> 00:28:53.694
+it returns a string
-30:30.180 --> 30:31.460
-is very easy to understand.
+00:28:53.695 --> 00:28:59.480
+that is just the inner body of the TeX file.
-30:31.540 --> 30:34.500
-It has lots of tests and test blocks.
+28:59.480 --> 00:29:02.306
+If we run this, we see the whole TeX file.
-30:34.500 --> 30:39.060
-And I think that its data structures are easy to understand.
+00:29:02.307 --> 00:29:05.200
+If we run this we save the TeX file and
-30:42.500 --> 30:44.820
-Anyway, here is another example.
+29:05.200 --> 00:29:09.196
+we compile the TeX file to generate a PDF.
-30:50.260 --> 30:51.620
-The show is here.
+00:29:09.197 --> 00:29:12.557
+If we run this, we show the PDF
-30:53.460 --> 30:56.340
-It generates a 3D diagram.
+00:29:12.558 --> 00:29:15.078
+in the lower right window.
-31:02.420 --> 31:08.500
-Now let me talk about parsers and REPLs in a very strange place.
+00:29:15.079 --> 00:29:20.026
+That's the same thing for all my recent programs
-31:09.140 --> 31:18.340
-I mean, using REPLs to build parsers step by step and replacing parts by more complex parts.
+00:29:20.027 --> 00:29:23.810
+that generate PDFs. They are all integrated.
-31:21.060 --> 31:23.780
-So I said that Lua is very minimalistic.
+00:29:23.811 --> 00:29:28.267
+Here is the basis for all my modules
-31:25.780 --> 31:30.660
-And everybody knows that implementations of regular expressions
+00:29:28.268 --> 00:29:31.423
+that generate diagrams with Pict2e.
-31:30.740 --> 31:31.780
-are big and complex.
+00:29:31.424 --> 00:29:34.337
+Its demos are not very interesting.
-31:33.060 --> 31:39.220
-So instead of coming with full regular expressions, Lua comes with something called patterns
+00:29:34.338 --> 00:29:38.556
+Let me show some demos of extensions
-31:39.220 --> 31:43.620
-and a library function called string.match.
+00:29:38.557 --> 00:29:43.723
+that do interesting things. This is a diagram
-31:45.380 --> 31:54.420
-Here is a copy of the part of the manual that explains a part of the syntax of patterns.
+00:29:43.724 --> 00:29:47.901
+that I created by editing it in a REPL,
-31:56.260 --> 32:00.100
-Here's how string.match is described in the manual.
+00:29:47.902 --> 00:29:51.871
+I create several Pict objects here.
-32:01.220 --> 32:02.500
-It's just this.
+00:29:51.872 --> 00:29:57.818
+If I execute this, it compiles the object and
-32:02.500 --> 32:06.260
-Looks for the first match of pattern in the string as blah, blah, blah.
+00:29:57.819 --> 00:30:04.523
+generates a PDF. If I tap this, here is the PDF.
-32:07.220 --> 32:11.300
-And then we have to go to the other section of the manual that explains patterns.
+00:30:04.524 --> 00:30:10.919
+If I just ask Lua to display what is pux here,
-32:17.780 --> 32:26.500
-Lua patterns are so simple, so limited, that they don't even have the alternation operator.
+00:30:10.920 --> 00:30:17.435
+it shows the source code in Pict2e of the diagram.
-32:27.220 --> 32:31.460
-Here is how it is described in the ELLISP manual.
+00:30:17.436 --> 00:30:20.932
+The nice thing is that it is indented,
-32:33.300 --> 32:37.780
-Backslash pipe specifies an alternative, blah, blah, blah.
+00:30:20.933 --> 00:30:24.348
+so it's easy to debug the Pict2e code.
-32:40.820 --> 32:47.940
-When we want to build more complex regular expressions, patterns, grammars, etc.,
+00:30:24.349 --> 00:30:28.504
+If anyone is interested, the module that does the tricks
-32:47.940 --> 32:51.780
-we have to use an external library for that.
+00:30:28.505 --> 00:30:31.947
+for indentation is very easy to understand.
-32:52.740 --> 32:59.140
-No, sorry, a library that is external, but that was written by one of the authors of Lua itself.
+00:30:31.948 --> 00:30:34.920
+it has lots of tests and test blocks,
-33:00.340 --> 33:05.380
-This library is called LPEG, and its manual says,
+00:30:34.921 --> 00:30:47.438
+and I think that its data structures are easy to understand.
-33:06.180 --> 33:11.940
-LPEG is a new pattern matching library for Lua based on parsing expression grammars, PEGs.
+00:30:47.439 --> 00:30:57.904
+Anyway, here is another example, the show is here.
-33:14.900 --> 33:17.460
-The manual is very terse.
+00:30:57.905 --> 00:31:03.240
+It generates a 3D diagram.
-33:18.180 --> 33:20.500
-I found it incredibly hard to read.
+NOTE Parsers
-33:20.900 --> 33:22.740
-It doesn't have any diagrams.
+31:03.240 --> 00:31:05.897
+Now let me talk about parsers
-33:22.740 --> 33:24.420
-It has some examples, though.
+00:31:05.898 --> 00:31:08.997
+and REPLs in a very strange place.
-33:26.180 --> 33:34.420
-And the Lua wiki has a big page called LPEG tutorial with lots of examples.
+00:31:08.998 --> 00:31:15.148
+I mean, using REPLs to build parsers step by step
-33:35.700 --> 33:42.020
-But it also doesn't have diagrams, and I found some things incredibly hard to understand.
+00:31:15.149 --> 00:31:20.438
+and replacing parts by more complex parts.
-33:42.020 --> 33:48.500
-For example, this is something that is in the manual of LPEG that I saw and I thought,
+00:31:20.439 --> 00:31:24.492
+I said that Lua is very minimalistic,
-33:49.460 --> 33:53.060
-wow, great, this makes all sense, and this is going to be very useful.
+00:31:24.493 --> 00:31:26.964
+and everybody knows that
-33:53.060 --> 33:57.300
-It's a way to build grammars that can be recursive,
+00:31:26.965 --> 00:31:30.720
+implementations of regular expressions
-33:57.300 --> 34:02.020
-and they sort of can encode BNF grammars.
+31:30.720 --> 00:31:33.973
+are big and complex. So instead of coming
-34:02.020 --> 34:06.980
-We just have to translate the BNF a bit to get rid of some recursions
+00:31:33.974 --> 00:31:36.375
+with full regular expressions,
-34:06.980 --> 34:08.820
-and to translate them to something else.
+00:31:36.376 --> 00:31:41.320
+Lua comes with something called patterns
-34:10.580 --> 34:13.620
-And the manual also has some things that I thought,
+00:31:41.321 --> 00:31:46.627
+and a library function called string.match.
-34:13.620 --> 34:16.580
-oh, no, I don't have any idea of what this thing does.
+00:31:46.628 --> 00:31:50.820
+Here is a copy of the part of the manual
-34:17.380 --> 34:22.020
-And in fact, I saw these things for the first time more than 10 years ago,
+00:31:50.821 --> 00:31:55.728
+that explains a part of the syntax of patterns.
-34:22.020 --> 34:26.020
-and they only started to make sense one year ago.
+00:31:55.729 --> 00:32:00.090
+Here's how string.match is described in the manual.
-34:28.420 --> 34:30.340
-One example is group captures.
+00:32:00.091 --> 00:32:04.536
+It's just this: looks for the first match of pattern
-34:33.380 --> 34:37.620
-LPEG also comes with a module called the RE module.
+00:32:04.537 --> 00:32:06.545
+in the string s, blah blah blah.
-34:37.620 --> 34:40.180
-Let me pronounce it in Portuguese, the RE module.
+00:32:06.546 --> 00:32:10.076
+Then we have to go to the other section of the manual
-34:40.660 --> 34:45.540
-And its manual says, the RE module provided by the file repo.luen
+00:32:10.077 --> 00:32:18.197
+that explains patterns. Lua patterns are so simple,
-34:45.540 --> 34:48.100
-in the distribution supports a somewhat conventional
+00:32:18.198 --> 00:32:23.221
+so limited, that they don't even have
-34:48.980 --> 34:54.420
-regular expression syntax for pattern usage within LPEG.
+00:32:23.222 --> 00:32:26.658
+the alternation operator.
-34:55.140 --> 34:57.460
-And this is a quick reference.
+00:32:26.659 --> 00:32:33.135
+Here is how it is described in the elisp manual,
-35:00.500 --> 35:02.820
-And this thing is very brief.
+00:32:33.136 --> 00:32:39.677
+`\|` specifies an alternative, blah blah blah.
-35:02.820 --> 35:06.420
-It has some nice examples, but it's hard to understand in a way.
+00:32:39.678 --> 00:32:45.880
+When we want to build more complex regular expressions,
-35:06.660 --> 35:12.500
-And here are some comments about my attempts to learn HerdotLua.
+32:45.880 --> 00:32:48.365
+patterns, grammars, etc.,
-35:14.020 --> 35:15.220
-This is a class.
+00:32:48.366 --> 00:32:52.668
+we have to use an external library for that.
-35:15.220 --> 35:17.060
-In this case, it's a very small class.
+00:32:52.669 --> 00:32:56.207
+No, sorry, a library that is external,
-35:18.180 --> 35:21.940
-And this file implements a PM method.
+00:32:56.208 --> 00:33:01.471
+but that was written by one of the authors of Lua itself.
-35:23.540 --> 35:26.980
-I'm going to show examples of other PM methods very soon.
+00:33:01.472 --> 00:33:03.943
+This library is called Lpeg.
-35:28.020 --> 35:33.380
-So this is a PM method for HerdotLua that lets us compare the syntax
+00:33:03.944 --> 00:33:06.330
+Its manual says Lpeg is
-35:33.620 --> 35:39.460
-of Lua patterns, LPEG, and HerdotLua.
+00:33:06.331 --> 00:33:09.653
+a new pattern matching library for Lua
-35:41.620 --> 35:43.060
-See this example here.
+00:33:09.654 --> 00:33:14.772
+based on parsing expression grammars (PEGs).
-35:43.700 --> 35:49.940
-So if we run this, it loads my version of LPEG.
+00:33:14.773 --> 00:33:17.780
+The manual is very terse.
-35:50.660 --> 35:52.740
-No, sorry, my version of LPEG-REX.
+00:33:17.781 --> 00:33:21.945
+I found it incredibly hard to read.
-35:54.820 --> 36:00.180
-And it shows that when we apply the PM method to this Lua pattern,
+00:33:21.946 --> 00:33:25.415
+it doesn't have any diagrams.
-36:00.740 --> 36:07.380
-this LPEG pattern, and this RE pattern, they all get the same results.
+00:33:25.416 --> 00:33:28.769
+It has some examples, though.
-36:07.380 --> 36:12.820
-So we can use this thing, this kind of thing here to show how to translate from
+00:33:28.770 --> 00:33:34.016
+The Lua wiki has a big page called Lpeg Tutorial
-36:14.420 --> 36:20.180
-Lua patterns that are familiar because they are similar to regular expressions, only weaker,
+00:33:34.017 --> 00:33:39.560
+with lots of examples, but it also doesn't have diagrams.
-36:22.260 --> 36:27.620
-to LPEG that is super weird, and to RE that is not so weird.
+33:39.560 --> 00:33:43.131
+I found some things incredibly hard to understand.
-36:28.580 --> 36:37.940
-Anyway, the comment says that in 2012, I had a project that needed a precedence parser that
+00:33:43.132 --> 00:33:45.080
+For example, this is something
-36:37.940 --> 36:42.900
-could parse arithmetical expressions with the right precedences.
+33:45.080 --> 00:33:48.061
+that is in the manual of Lpeg that I saw,
-36:44.580 --> 36:50.180
-And at that point, I was still struggling with pure LPEG, and I couldn't do much with it.
+00:33:48.062 --> 00:33:51.480
+and I thought, wow, great, this makes all sense
-36:50.180 --> 36:55.300
-So I tried to learn HerdotLua instead, and I wrote this old class here.
+33:51.480 --> 00:33:53.946
+and this is going to be very useful.
-36:56.260 --> 36:59.620
-That allowed me to use preprocessor on patterns for Lua.
+00:33:53.947 --> 00:33:57.280
+It's a way to build grammars that can be recursive
-36:59.620 --> 37:04.980
-And the thing is that with this preprocessor, I could specify precedence grammars using this
+33:57.280 --> 00:34:01.300
+and they sort of can encode BNF grammars,
-37:04.980 --> 37:12.900
-thing here that worked, but it was super clumsy, and I gave up after a few attempts.
+00:34:01.301 --> 00:34:05.128
+we just have to translate the BNF a bit
-37:14.900 --> 37:21.300
-And in 2022, I heard about something called LPEG-REX that was an
+00:34:05.129 --> 00:34:07.592
+to get rid of some recursions
-37:22.260 --> 37:28.740
-a kind of extension of Re, and it was much more powerful than HerdotLua, but after a while,
+00:34:07.593 --> 00:34:10.959
+and to translate them to something else.
-37:28.740 --> 37:32.660
-I realized that it had the same defects as HerdotLua.
+00:34:10.960 --> 00:34:14.337
+The manual also has some things that I thought,
-37:32.660 --> 37:41.620
-And let me explain that because it has all to do with the things about black boxes and magic
+00:34:14.338 --> 00:34:17.845
+oh no, I don't have any idea of what this thing does.
-37:41.620 --> 37:42.980
-that I told in the beginning.
+00:34:17.846 --> 00:34:20.768
+In fact, I saw these things for the first time
-37:43.380 --> 37:50.100
-Both, I mean, sorry, neither HerdotLua or LPEG-REX had some features that I needed.
+00:34:20.769 --> 00:34:27.294
+more than 10 years ago, and they only started to make sense
-37:51.620 --> 37:57.940
-They didn't let us explain, sorry, they received a pattern that was specified as a string,
+00:34:27.295 --> 00:34:32.272
+one year ago. One example is group captures.
-37:57.940 --> 38:04.740
-and it converted that into an LPEG pattern, but it didn't let us explore the LPEG patterns
+00:34:32.273 --> 00:34:37.834
+Lpeg also comes with a module called the re module.
-38:04.740 --> 38:05.540
-that it was using.
+00:34:37.835 --> 00:34:43.182
+Let me pronounce it in Portuguese, the re module.
-38:05.540 --> 38:12.900
-So I had to use the LPEG-REX, and it didn't let me explore the LPEG patterns that it was
+00:34:43.183 --> 00:34:45.741
+Its manual says the re module
-38:12.900 --> 38:13.540
-generated.
+00:34:45.742 --> 00:34:49.503
+provided by the file re.lua in the distribution
-38:16.420 --> 38:21.060
-Their code was written in a way that was REPL unfriendly.
+00:34:49.504 --> 00:34:56.757
+supports some odd conventional regular expression syntax
-38:21.060 --> 38:28.580
-I couldn't modify parts of the code bit by bit in a REPL and try to change the code
+00:34:56.758 --> 00:35:04.520
+for pattern usage within lpeg. This is a quick reference.
-38:29.700 --> 38:31.620
-without changing the original file, say.
+35:04.520 --> 00:35:08.464
+This thing is very brief. It has some nice examples,
-38:33.300 --> 38:37.220
-The code was very hard to explore, to hack, and to extend, in my opinion.
+00:35:08.465 --> 00:35:11.120
+but it's hard to understand anyway.
-38:37.780 --> 38:39.700
-The documentation was not very clear.
+35:11.120 --> 00:35:14.180
+Here are some comments about
-38:40.580 --> 38:50.660
-And I sent one or two messages to the developer of LPEG-REX, and he was too busy to help me.
+00:35:14.181 --> 00:35:18.631
+my attempts to learn re.lua. This is a class.
-38:50.660 --> 38:55.460
-He answered very briefly, and to be honest, I felt rejected.
+00:35:18.632 --> 00:35:22.361
+In this case, it's a very small class.
-38:55.460 --> 38:58.580
-I felt that I wasn't doing anything interesting.
+00:35:22.362 --> 00:35:26.091
+This file implements a `pm` method.
-38:58.580 --> 38:59.380
-Whatever, whatever.
+00:35:26.092 --> 00:35:31.400
+I'm going to show examples of other `pm` methods very soon.
-39:00.340 --> 39:11.940
-So, in 2022, I was trying to learn LPEG-REX, because I was thinking that it would solve
+00:35:31.401 --> 00:35:34.696
+So this is a `pm` method for re.lua
-39:11.940 --> 39:13.780
-my problems, but it didn't.
+00:35:34.697 --> 00:35:40.301
+that lets us compare the syntax of lua patterns, lpeg,
-39:14.500 --> 39:20.900
-It didn't have the features that I needed, and it was hard to extend, and hard to explore,
+00:35:40.302 --> 00:35:46.631
+and re. See this example here. If we run this,
-39:20.900 --> 39:22.100
-and hard to debug.
+00:35:46.632 --> 00:35:51.379
+it loads my version of lpeg, no sorry,
-39:22.980 --> 39:32.420
-I decided to rewrite it in a more hacker-friendly way, in the sense that it was modular, and
+00:35:51.380 --> 00:35:56.013
+my version of lpegrex. It shows that
-39:32.420 --> 39:35.460
-I could replace any part of the module from a REPL.
+00:35:56.014 --> 00:36:01.552
+when we apply the `pm` method to this Lua pattern,
-39:37.300 --> 39:48.340
-My version of it was called lpeg1.lua, and I decided that in my version, I wouldn't have
+00:36:01.553 --> 00:36:05.960
+this lpeg pattern, and this re pattern,
-39:49.060 --> 39:55.460
-the part that receives a grammar specified as a string and converts that to LPEG.
+36:05.960 --> 00:36:08.238
+they all give the same results.
-39:55.460 --> 40:03.780
-I would just have the backend part that are the functions in LPEG that let us specify
+00:36:08.239 --> 00:36:11.512
+So we can use this kind of thing here to show
-40:04.340 --> 40:05.380
-powerful grammars.
+00:36:11.513 --> 00:36:15.588
+how to translate from Lua patterns that are familiar
-40:10.340 --> 40:11.540
-So, let me go back.
+00:36:15.589 --> 00:36:19.280
+because they are similar to regular expressions,
-40:12.260 --> 40:14.260
-Let me explain a bit about LPEG.
+36:19.280 --> 00:36:25.251
+only weaker, to lpeg that is super weird,
-40:14.900 --> 40:16.180
-Lua has coercions.
+00:36:25.252 --> 00:36:30.084
+and to re that is not so weird.
-40:18.660 --> 40:22.740
-The plus expects to receive two numbers.
+00:36:30.085 --> 00:36:35.425
+Anyway, the comment says that in 2012, I had a project
-40:22.740 --> 40:29.860
-If one of its arguments, or both of them, are strings, it converts the strings to numbers.
+00:36:35.426 --> 00:36:38.590
+that needed a precedence parser
-40:29.860 --> 40:39.220
-So, in this case here, 2 plus string 3 returns the number 5, and this is the concatenation
+00:36:38.591 --> 00:36:42.277
+that could parse arithmetical expressions
-40:39.220 --> 40:39.860
-operator.
+00:36:42.278 --> 00:36:46.314
+with the right precedences. At that point
-40:40.820 --> 40:42.820
-It expects to receive strings.
+00:36:46.315 --> 00:36:49.031
+I was still struggling with pure lpeg
-40:43.780 --> 40:49.860
-So, in this case, it will convert the number 2 to the string 2, and the concatenation of
+00:36:49.032 --> 00:36:51.318
+and I couldn't do much with it,
-40:49.860 --> 40:51.700
-these two things will be 23.
+00:36:51.319 --> 00:36:54.576
+so I tried to learn re.lua instead,
-40:52.420 --> 40:54.420
-Sorry, 23 as a string.
+00:36:54.577 --> 00:36:59.291
+and I wrote this old class here that allowed me to use
-40:56.260 --> 40:58.420
-LPEG also has some coercions.
+00:36:59.292 --> 00:37:01.755
+a preprocessor on patterns for Lua.
-41:00.260 --> 41:09.620
-I usually set these globals to let me write my grammars in a very compact way.
+00:37:01.756 --> 00:37:04.834
+The thing is that with this preprocessor
-41:10.260 --> 41:17.460
-So, instead of lpeg.p, lpeg.c, etc., I use these globals like uppercase B, uppercase
+00:37:04.835 --> 00:37:10.920
+I could specify precedence grammars using this thing here
-41:17.460 --> 41:18.420
-C, and so on.
+00:37:10.921 --> 00:37:14.488
+that worked but was super clumsy,
-41:19.540 --> 41:27.540
-And with these globals, I can write things like this, c1 times string underscore.
+00:37:14.489 --> 00:37:18.160
+and I gave up after a few attempts.
-41:28.420 --> 41:40.820
-And LPEG knows that lpeg.c, sorry, it sort of expands these to lpeg.c, but lpeg.c expects
+37:18.160 --> 00:37:25.632
+And in 2022 I heard about something called lpegrex
-41:40.820 --> 41:47.380
-to receive an LPEG pattern, and one is not yet an LPEG pattern, so it is coerced into
+00:37:25.633 --> 00:37:30.760
+that was a kind of extension of re,
-41:47.380 --> 41:50.900
-an LPEG pattern by calling lpeg.p.
+37:30.760 --> 00:37:33.045
+and it was much more powerful than re.lua,
-41:51.220 --> 42:02.740
-So, this shorting here becomes equivalent to lpeg.c, lpeg.p1, and the multiplication,
+00:37:33.046 --> 00:37:35.784
+but after a while I realized that
-42:02.740 --> 42:09.940
-when at least one of its arguments is an LPEG pattern, it expects to receive two LPEG patterns,
+00:37:35.785 --> 00:37:38.765
+it had the same defects as re.lua.
-42:09.940 --> 42:15.700
-and in this case, the one at the right is just a string, so it is coerced to an LPEG
+00:37:38.766 --> 00:37:40.698
+Let me explain that,
-42:15.700 --> 42:17.620
-pattern by using lpeg.p.
+00:37:40.699 --> 00:37:43.920
+because it has all to do with the things
-42:18.180 --> 42:22.180
-With this idea, we can sort of understand this comparison here.
+37:43.920 --> 00:37:52.026
+about black boxes and magic that I told in the beginning.
-42:22.900 --> 42:24.980
-I mean, let me run it again.
+00:37:52.027 --> 00:37:59.046
+Neither re.lua or lpegrex had some features that I needed.
-42:24.980 --> 42:33.620
-This first part is very similar to a regular expression here at the left, and when we apply
+00:37:59.047 --> 00:38:05.374
+They received a pattern that was specified as a string
-42:33.620 --> 42:45.940
-this LPEG, sorry, this Lua pattern to this subject here, the result is that the Lua pattern
+00:38:05.375 --> 00:38:08.868
+and it converted that into an lpeg pattern,
-42:46.740 --> 42:53.540
-the result is this thing here, this thing, this thing, and this thing.
+00:38:08.869 --> 00:38:12.520
+but it didn't let us explore the lpeg patterns
-42:53.540 --> 43:00.580
-I'm going to call each one of these results captures, so each of these things between
+38:12.520 --> 00:38:14.529
+that it generated.
-43:00.580 --> 43:08.020
-parentheses captures a substring of the original string, and these captured substrings are
+00:38:14.530 --> 00:38:20.662
+Their code was written in a way that was REPL-unfriendly.
-43:08.020 --> 43:09.460
-returned in a certain order.
+00:38:20.663 --> 00:38:26.281
+I couldn't modify parts of the code bit by bit in a REPL
-43:10.420 --> 43:12.740
-Here is how to express the same thing in LPEG.
+00:38:26.282 --> 00:38:28.943
+and try to change the code
-43:13.540 --> 43:22.660
-It's very cryptic, but it's a good way to understand some basic operators of LPEG.
+00:38:28.944 --> 00:38:32.035
+without changing the original file, say.
-43:22.660 --> 43:34.900
-I mean, we can look at the menu and understand what C, S, and R do, and also exponentiation.
+00:38:32.036 --> 00:38:35.353
+The code was very hard to explore, to hack,
-43:35.860 --> 43:43.060
-And this strange thing here receives this string here, runs a function that I have defined
+00:38:35.354 --> 00:38:38.238
+and to extend in my opinion.
-43:43.060 --> 43:50.260
-that converts it to an object of a certain class, and that class represents He patterns.
+00:38:38.239 --> 00:38:42.018
+The documentation was not very clear,
-43:50.260 --> 43:56.900
-So this thing is treated as a pattern for He.Lua, and it is matched against the string,
+00:38:42.019 --> 00:38:45.600
+and I sent wonderful messages to the
-43:56.900 --> 43:59.300
-and it returns the same thing as the other one.
+38:45.600 --> 00:38:51.013
+developer of lpegrex, and he was too busy to help me.
-43:59.860 --> 44:06.260
-Also, this thing here also has a comparison with LPEG-REGS, but these patterns are very
+00:38:51.014 --> 00:38:57.210
+He answered very briefly. To be honest, I felt rejected.
-44:06.260 --> 44:06.820
-trivial.
+00:38:57.211 --> 00:39:03.200
+I felt that I wasn't doing anything interesting, whatever.
-44:06.820 --> 44:10.180
-They don't do anything very strange.
+NOTE ELpeg1.lua
-44:10.180 --> 44:14.260
-So let's go back and see what kinds of very strange things there are.
+39:03.200 --> 00:39:07.470
+So in 2022, I was trying to learn lpegrex
-44:16.660 --> 44:23.620
-Here is the page of LPEG-REGS at GitHub.
+00:39:07.471 --> 00:39:13.200
+because I was thinking that it would solve my problems,
-44:24.260 --> 44:25.860
-Here's the documentation.
+39:13.200 --> 00:39:16.666
+but it didn't. It didn't have the features that I needed,
-44:27.940 --> 44:29.380
-It's relatively brief.
+00:39:16.667 --> 00:39:18.400
+and it was hard to extend and
-44:29.380 --> 44:35.300
-It explains LPEG-REGS as being an extension of He.Lua.
+39:18.400 --> 00:39:22.302
+how to explore and hard to debug.
-44:36.500 --> 44:40.100
-So it explains mainly the additional features.
+00:39:22.303 --> 00:39:28.960
+I decided to rewrite it in a more hacker-friendly way,
-44:40.100 --> 44:44.180
-Here is a quick reference that explains only the additional features.
+39:28.960 --> 00:39:32.035
+in the sense that it was modular
-44:46.820 --> 44:53.380
-Some of these things I was able to understand by using the LPEG-REGS.
+00:39:32.036 --> 00:39:37.160
+and I could replace any part of the module from a REPL.
-44:54.340 --> 45:02.820
-I was struggling a lot, and some I wasn't able to, even by spending several evenings
+39:37.160 --> 00:39:42.640
+My version of it was called ELpeg1.lua.
-45:02.820 --> 45:04.420
-trying to build examples.
+00:39:42.641 --> 00:39:48.120
+I decided that in my version I wouldn't
-45:08.260 --> 45:10.900
-And this is something very nice.
+39:48.120 --> 00:39:51.240
+have the part that receives a grammar
-45:12.100 --> 45:19.700
-LPEG-REGS comes with some example parsers, and here is a parser that parses the Lua grammar.
+00:39:51.241 --> 00:39:55.265
+specified as a string and converts that to lpeg.
-45:19.700 --> 45:28.100
-I mean, this is the grammar for Lua 5.4 at the end of the reference manual.
+00:39:55.266 --> 00:39:58.984
+I would just have the backend part
-45:28.660 --> 45:35.860
-It's just this, and this is a kind of the BNF, and this is the BNF translated to
+00:39:58.985 --> 00:40:02.171
+that are the functions in lpeg
-45:37.300 --> 45:39.860
-the language of LPEG-REGS.
+00:40:02.172 --> 00:40:06.320
+that let us specify powerful grammars.
-45:40.420 --> 45:47.300
-So this thing uses many constructions that are in He.Lua and some extra constructions
+40:06.320 --> 00:40:15.161
+Let me go back. Let me explain a bit about lpeg.
-45:47.300 --> 45:49.460
-that are described here.
+00:40:15.162 --> 00:40:20.780
+Lua has coercions. The `+` expects to receive two numbers.
-45:50.260 --> 45:58.980
-And with these examples, I was able to understand some of these things here that are described
+00:40:20.781 --> 00:40:25.930
+If one of its arguments or both of them are strings,
-45:58.980 --> 46:02.660
-here in the quick reference, but not all.
+00:40:25.931 --> 00:40:30.116
+it converts the strings to numbers.
-46:06.660 --> 46:15.300
-So I wasn't able to use LPEG-REGS by itself because some things didn't make much sense,
+00:40:30.117 --> 00:40:37.091
+So in this case here, `2 + "3"` returns the number 5.
-46:15.300 --> 46:18.900
-and I decided to reimplement it in my own style.
+00:40:37.092 --> 00:40:40.440
+This is the concatenation operator.
-46:20.900 --> 46:27.860
-Because that would be a way to map, at the very least, map what I understood and what
+00:40:40.441 --> 00:40:44.960
+It expects to receive strings. In this case, it will
-46:27.860 --> 46:32.980
-I didn't, and learn one feature at a time, do comparisons, and so on.
+40:44.960 --> 00:40:47.541
+convert the number 2 to the string "2"
-46:35.380 --> 46:38.900
-Here, I pointed to two features of LPEG.
+00:40:47.542 --> 00:40:50.960
+and the concatenation of these two things will be
-46:38.900 --> 46:44.820
-One, I said, oh great, this thing can be used to define grammars, even recursive
+40:50.960 --> 00:40:55.917
+"23". Oops, sorry, "23" as a string.
-46:44.900 --> 46:46.020
-grammars, and so on.
+00:40:55.918 --> 00:41:04.480
+lpeg also has some coercions. I usually set these globals
-46:46.740 --> 46:52.820
-And this is an oh-no feature, one thing that didn't make any sense at all, group captures.
+41:04.480 --> 00:41:10.013
+to let me write my grammars in a very compact way.
-46:55.380 --> 47:01.620
-One thing that I did to understand group captures was to represent them as diagrams.
+00:41:10.014 --> 00:41:13.811
+So instead of lpeg.B, lpeg.C, etc.
-47:01.620 --> 47:08.020
-Of course, in the beginning, I was drawing these diagrams by hand, but then I realized
+00:41:13.812 --> 00:41:17.878
+I use globals like B, C, and so on.
-47:08.020 --> 47:15.220
-that I could use the bits of LPEG that I already knew to build a grammar that would
+00:41:17.879 --> 00:41:21.720
+And with these globals I can write
-47:15.220 --> 47:19.380
-parse a little language and generate these diagrams in LaTeX.
+41:21.720 --> 00:41:36.047
+things like this, `C(1) * "_"`. And lpeg knows that lpeg.C,
-47:20.340 --> 47:21.940
-And I was able to make this.
+00:41:36.048 --> 00:41:41.147
+sorry, it sort of expands these to lpeg.C,
-47:24.180 --> 47:34.500
-In this diagram here, this thing above the arrow is a piece of Lua code that specifies
+00:41:41.148 --> 00:41:43.590
+but lpeg.C expects to receive an lpeg pattern
-47:34.500 --> 47:36.100
-an LPEG pattern.
+00:41:43.591 --> 00:41:48.547
+and 1 is not yet an lpeg pattern.
-47:36.820 --> 47:43.540
-This thing here at the top is the string that is being matched, and the things below the
+00:41:48.548 --> 00:41:53.347
+So it is coerced into an lpeg pattern by calling lpeg.P.
-47:43.540 --> 47:51.220
-under braces are the captures that each thing, sorry, each thing captures.
+00:41:53.348 --> 00:42:02.481
+So this short thing here becomes equivalent to
-47:54.580 --> 48:02.100
-And for example, this under brace here corresponds to this pattern here that parses a single
+00:42:02.482 --> 00:42:07.200
+`lpeg.C(lpeg.P(1))`. And the multiplication when at least one of
-48:02.100 --> 48:05.060
-character but doesn't return any captures.
+42:07.200 --> 42:13.320
+its arguments is an lpeg pattern, it expects to receive two lpeg patterns. And in this
-48:05.140 --> 48:10.420
-This thing here parses a single B and doesn't return any captures.
+42:13.320 --> 42:19.200
+case the one at the right is just a string, so it is coerced to an lpeg pattern by using
-48:10.420 --> 48:16.740
-This thing here parses a single character and captures it, and this thing here parses
+42:19.200 --> 42:29.360
+lpeg.P. With this idea we can sort of understand this comparison here. I mean, let me run it
-48:17.620 --> 48:19.700
-the character D and captures it.
+42:29.360 --> 42:37.440
+again. This first part is very similar to a regular expression here at the left. And
-48:20.340 --> 48:29.220
-And this other thing here that transforms this pattern into another pattern returns
+42:37.440 --> 42:51.440
+when we apply this lpeg, sorry, this lua pattern to this subject here, the result is this thing
-48:29.780 --> 48:36.500
-first a capture with all the string that was parsed by this pattern here, and then all
+42:51.440 --> 42:56.040
+here, this thing, this thing and this thing. I'm going to call each one of these results
-48:36.500 --> 48:41.380
-the captures returned by this thing here before the column.
+42:56.040 --> 43:04.080
+captures. So each of these things between parentheses captures a substring of the original
-48:43.380 --> 48:50.900
-So this was a way to build concrete examples for things that the LPEG manual was explaining
+43:04.080 --> 43:11.520
+string and these captured substrings are returned in a certain order. Here is how to express
-48:50.900 --> 48:53.940
-in a very terse way, and it worked for me.
+43:11.520 --> 43:20.720
+the same thing in lpeg. It's very cryptic, but it's a good way to understand some basic
-48:54.740 --> 49:01.540
-Some things that were very mysterious started to make sense, and I started to have intelligent
+43:20.720 --> 43:29.880
+operators of lpeg. I mean, we can look at the menu and understand what C, S and R do
-49:01.540 --> 49:03.300
-questions to ask in the mailing list.
+43:29.880 --> 43:41.360
+and also exponentiation. And this strange thing here receives this string here, runs
-49:07.700 --> 49:16.980
-And with that, I was able to understand what are group captures and group captures that
+43:41.360 --> 43:46.760
+a function that I have defined that converts it to an object of a certain class and that
-49:16.980 --> 49:17.860
-receive a name.
+43:46.760 --> 43:55.240
+class represents re patterns. So this thing is treated as a pattern for re.lua and it
-49:20.900 --> 49:23.140
-Well, let me explain what this does.
+43:55.240 --> 44:04.040
+is matched again the string and it returns the same thing as the other one. Also this
-49:23.220 --> 49:30.180
-This thing here captures, sorry, parses the empty string and returns this as a constant.
+44:04.040 --> 44:10.680
+thing here also has a comparison with lpeg.rex, but these patterns are very, very trivial.
-49:30.180 --> 49:35.860
-So this is something that doesn't exist in regular expressions.
+44:10.680 --> 44:17.340
+They don't do anything very strange. So let's go back and see what kinds of very strange
-49:36.980 --> 49:40.180
-It parses nothing and returns this as a capture.
+44:17.340 --> 44:31.480
+things there are. Here is the page of lpeg.rex at GitHub. Here is the documentation. It's
-49:40.820 --> 49:48.580
-Then this thing here returns these two constants here and parses the empty string, and this
+44:31.480 --> 44:39.120
+relatively brief. It explains lpeg.rex as being an extension of re.lua. So
-49:48.660 --> 49:56.500
-thing here, d, converts the results of this thing here into a group capture and stores
+44:39.120 --> 44:44.880
+it explains mainly the additional features. Here is a quick reference that explains only
-49:56.500 --> 49:58.020
-it in the label d.
+44:44.880 --> 44:56.840
+the additional features. Some of these things I was able to understand by struggling a lot,
-50:01.380 --> 50:03.860
-And then here's another constant capture.
+44:56.840 --> 45:08.720
+and some I wasn't able to even by spending several evenings trying to build examples.
-50:03.860 --> 50:11.460
-And I realized that these things here were similar to how Lua specifies building lists.
+45:08.720 --> 45:16.600
+This is something very nice. lpeg.rex comes with some example parsers. Here is
-50:11.780 --> 50:16.580
-When we build, sorry, a table, when we build a table and we say that the first element
+45:16.600 --> 45:25.720
+a parser that parses the lua grammar. I mean, this is the grammar for lua 5.4 at the end
-50:16.580 --> 50:20.420
-of the table is here, this element is put at the end of the table.
+45:25.720 --> 45:35.080
+of the reference manual. It's just this. And this is a kind of BNF, and this is the BNF
-50:21.140 --> 50:30.820
-When after that we say d equals to, say, 42, we are putting the 42 in the slot whose key
+45:35.080 --> 45:43.840
+translated to the language of lpeg.rex. This thing uses many constructions that are
-50:30.820 --> 50:31.380
-is d.
+45:43.840 --> 45:51.840
+in re.lua and some extra constructions that are described here. With these examples,
-50:33.380 --> 50:37.860
-This was happening with LPEG captures, but there was something very strange.
+45:51.840 --> 46:00.280
+I was able to understand some of these things here that are described here in the quick
-50:37.860 --> 50:46.260
-These group captures could hold more than one capture, more than one value.
+46:00.280 --> 46:13.840
+reference, but not all. So I wasn't able to use lpeg.rex by itself because some things
-50:46.260 --> 50:50.340
-So there was something between lists and tables.
+46:13.840 --> 46:21.560
+didn't make much sense. I decided to re implement it in my own style because that
-50:51.300 --> 51:00.740
-I started to use this notation to explain in my notation what they were doing.
+46:21.560 --> 46:29.120
+would be a way to map... at the very least, map what I understood and what I didn't and
-51:02.340 --> 51:04.900
-Many things start, things stop.
+46:29.120 --> 46:38.160
+learn one feature at a time, do comparisons and so on. Here I pointed to two features
-51:05.220 --> 51:08.900
-Many things start, things started to make sense.
+46:38.160 --> 46:44.880
+of lpeg. One I said, oh great, this thing can be used to define grammars, even recursive
-51:08.900 --> 51:14.420
-Many mysterious sentences in the manual started to make sense, but some didn't.
+46:44.880 --> 46:52.260
+grammars and so on. And this is an "oh no" feature. One thing that didn't make any sense at all:
-51:16.100 --> 51:25.060
-But at least I was able to send some intelligent questions to the mailing list, and the author
+46:52.260 --> 47:01.760
+group captures. One thing that I did to understand group captures was to represent them as diagrams.
-51:25.060 --> 51:27.540
-of Lua and LPEG answered some of them.
+47:01.760 --> 47:08.200
+Of course in the beginning I was drawing these diagrams by hand, but then I realized that
-51:29.700 --> 51:31.860
-He was not very happy about my questions.
+47:08.200 --> 47:16.680
+I could use the bits of lpeg that I already knew to build a grammar that would parse a
-51:32.020 --> 51:40.100
-He told me that those diagrams were a waste of time, that the manual was perfectly clear,
+47:16.680 --> 47:24.400
+little language and generate these diagrams in LaTeX. I was able to make this. In
-51:40.100 --> 51:42.900
-and so on, whatever.
+47:24.400 --> 47:35.520
+this diagram here, this thing above the arrow is a piece of Lua code that specifies an lpeg
-51:42.900 --> 51:51.620
-But I was able to, so it was weird, but I was able to understand lots of things from
+47:35.520 --> 47:43.160
+pattern. This thing here at the top is the string that is being matched and the things
-51:51.620 --> 51:52.340
-his answers.
+47:43.160 --> 47:57.880
+below the under braces are the captures that each thing captures. For example, this under
-51:53.940 --> 51:57.380
-So this is a copy of one of my messages.
+47:57.880 --> 48:03.520
+brace here corresponds to this pattern here that parses a single character but doesn't
-51:57.380 --> 51:59.300
-Then there's another one, another one.
+48:03.520 --> 48:10.680
+return any captures. This thing here parses a single B and doesn't return any captures.
-51:59.300 --> 52:04.580
-Some were the diagrams, then he complained about these diagrams.
+48:10.680 --> 48:17.800
+This thing here parses a single character and captures it. And this thing here parses
-52:04.580 --> 52:12.980
-He said that these things here that look like table constructions do not exist, whatever.
+48:17.800 --> 48:24.920
+the character D and captures it. And this other thing here that transforms this pattern
-52:15.380 --> 52:23.220
-Anyway, once I understood group captures, many features were very, very easy to understand,
+48:24.920 --> 48:35.040
+into another pattern returns first a capture with all the string that was parsed by this
-52:23.780 --> 52:28.260
-and I started to be able to use LPEG to build some very interesting things.
+48:35.040 --> 48:44.000
+pattern here and then all the captures returned by this thing here before the column. So this
-52:30.260 --> 52:36.340
-I was able to reproduce some of the features that I saw in LPEG-REX.
+48:44.000 --> 48:51.840
+was a way to build concrete examples for things that the lpeg manual was explaining in a very
-52:38.420 --> 52:40.980
-Remember that this, where is that?
+48:51.840 --> 48:58.600
+terse way and it worked for me. Some things that were very mysterious started to make
-52:42.420 --> 52:44.020
-This is a syntax of Lua.
+48:58.600 --> 49:10.200
+sense and I started to have intelligent questions to ask in the mailing list. With that
-52:45.860 --> 52:54.820
-Here, I was able to understand how these things here were translated to LPEG code, to LPEG
+49:10.200 --> 49:22.040
+I was able to understand what are group captures that receive a name. Well, let me explain
-52:54.820 --> 52:58.340
-patterns by using group captures in a certain way.
+49:22.040 --> 49:30.400
+what this does. This thing here parses the empty string and returns this as a constant.
-52:59.460 --> 53:05.060
-And I was able to implement them in lpeg1.lua.
+49:30.400 --> 49:38.520
+So this is something that doesn't exist in regular expressions. It parses nothing and
-53:06.340 --> 53:14.180
-And after some time, I was able to use lpeg1.lua to build grammars that were able to parse
+49:38.520 --> 49:46.800
+returns this as a capture. Then this thing here returns two constants here and parses
-53:17.300 --> 53:19.860
-arithmetical expressions with the right precedence.
+49:46.800 --> 49:54.440
+the empty string. And this thing here, D, converts the results of this thing here into
-53:19.860 --> 53:25.700
-And here's an example in which I built the grammar step by step, and I test the current
+49:54.440 --> 50:04.160
+a group capture and stores it in the label D. And then here's another constant capture.
-53:25.700 --> 53:29.300
-grammar, and I replace a bit, and then I test the new grammar, and so on.
+NOTE Building lists
-53:31.780 --> 53:38.580
-And you can see that the result is always a tree that is drawn in a nice two-dimensional way.
+50:04.160 --> 50:15.560
+I realized that these things here were similar to how Lua specifies building lists.
-53:42.580 --> 53:52.340
-At this point, these powers here are returned as a list, as an operation
+50:15.560 --> 50:22.320
+When we build a table and we say that the first element of the table is here, this element
-53:52.900 --> 53:56.260
-pow with several arguments here.
+50:22.320 --> 50:30.600
+is put at the end of the table. After that we say D equals to say 42. We are putting
-53:56.820 --> 54:04.820
-And then I apply a kind of parsing combinator here that transforms these trees into other trees.
+50:30.600 --> 50:39.880
+the 42 in the slot whose key is D. This was happening with lpeg captures but there was
-54:05.540 --> 54:14.180
-And with these combinators here, I can specify that the power is associative in a certain
+50:39.880 --> 50:49.320
+something very strange. These group captures could hold more than one capture, more than
-54:14.180 --> 54:20.340
-direction, the division is associative in another direction, the minus is associative,
+50:49.320 --> 50:57.400
+one value. So there was something between lists and tables. I started to use this notation
-54:20.420 --> 54:24.420
-so it uses the same direction as a division, and so on.
+50:57.400 --> 51:09.840
+to explain in my notation what they were doing. Many things started to make sense, many mysterious
-54:24.420 --> 54:26.020
-And they have the right precedences.
+51:09.840 --> 51:20.480
+sentences in the manual started to make sense but some didn't. But at least I was able to
-54:28.660 --> 54:30.020
-So here are the tests.
+51:20.480 --> 51:26.960
+send some intelligent questions to the mailing list and the author of Lua and LPEG answered
-54:33.700 --> 54:37.140
-So here's my file lpeg1.lua.
+51:26.960 --> 51:35.920
+some of them. He was not very happy about my questions. He told me that those diagrams
-54:37.140 --> 54:38.340
-It has several classes.
+51:35.920 --> 51:47.280
+were a waste of time, the manual was perfectly clear and so on, whatever. So it was weird,
-54:38.980 --> 54:42.980
-Each class has tests after it.
+51:47.280 --> 51:56.440
+but I was able to understand lots of things from his answers. So this is a copy of one
-54:43.940 --> 54:51.780
-I was able to implement something that lpeg-reqs has that's called keywords.
+51:56.440 --> 52:02.040
+of my messages, then there's another one, another one, some of the diagrams. Then he
-54:51.780 --> 54:56.980
-That's very useful for parsing programs in programming languages.
+52:02.040 --> 52:10.080
+complained about these diagrams, he said that these things here that look like table constructions
-54:56.980 --> 55:06.580
-I was able to implement something similar to the debugger, to the PEG debugger that lpeg uses,
+52:10.080 --> 52:22.720
+do not exist, whatever. Anyway, once I understood group captures, many features were very easy
-55:07.220 --> 55:12.740
-but I was frustrated by some limitations of that debugger,
+52:22.720 --> 52:30.800
+to understand and I started to be able to use lpeg to build some very interesting things.
-55:12.740 --> 55:16.180
-and I implemented my own that is much better.
+52:30.800 --> 52:39.600
+I was able to reproduce some of the features that I saw in lpegrex. Remember that this
-55:17.700 --> 55:23.860
-And let me show something else.
+52:39.600 --> 52:53.400
+is a syntax of Lua. Here I was able to understand how these things here were translated to lpeg
-55:23.860 --> 55:32.900
-I was able to translate a good part of the Lua parser here to lpeg1.lua.
+52:53.400 --> 53:02.880
+code, to lpeg patterns by using group captures in a certain way. I was able to implement
-55:33.700 --> 55:39.940
-I haven't finished yet, but I have most of the translation here.
+53:02.880 --> 53:13.080
+them in ELpeg1.lua. after some time I was able to use ELpeg1.lua to build grammars that
-55:43.140 --> 55:50.420
-And after having all that, I was able to build other grammars very quickly.
+53:13.080 --> 53:21.080
+were able to parse arithmetical expressions with the right precedence. here's an example
-55:51.380 --> 55:59.220
-Writing new parsers finally became fun, and here's one example that I showed in the beginning.
+53:21.080 --> 53:26.920
+in which I built the grammar step by step and I test the current grammar and I replace
-56:03.620 --> 56:11.220
-If I remember correctly, I took a figure from the Wikipedia.
+53:26.920 --> 53:34.400
+a bit and then I test the new grammar and so on. You can see that the result is
-56:11.220 --> 56:17.220
-I don't have its link now, but I specified a grammar that parses
+53:34.400 --> 53:48.720
+always a tree that is drawn in a nice two dimensional way. At this point, these powers
-56:18.500 --> 56:21.140
-exactly the example that appears in the Wikipedia.
+53:48.720 --> 53:57.760
+here are returned as a list, as an operation power with several arguments here and then
-56:21.140 --> 56:28.100
-So with my grammar, considering that the top-level entry is statement,
+53:57.760 --> 54:05.560
+I apply a kind of parsing combinator here that transforms these trees into other trees
-56:28.100 --> 56:36.900
-when I parse this string here, the result is this tree.
+54:05.560 --> 54:14.200
+and with these combinators here I can specify that the power is associative in a certain
-56:38.100 --> 56:41.780
-And I can do some operations on that.
+54:14.200 --> 54:22.320
+direction, the division is associative in another direction, the minus uses the same
-56:41.780 --> 56:45.780
-I can define how this thing is to be converted into LaTeX.
+54:22.320 --> 54:29.520
+direction as a division and so on and they have the right precedences. So here are the
-56:47.460 --> 56:51.700
-I can define other operations that convert trees into other trees.
+54:29.520 --> 54:42.360
+tests. So here's my file ELpeg.lua, it has several classes. Each class has tests after
-56:52.580 --> 56:54.980
-And here are some tests of these operations.
+54:42.360 --> 54:52.040
+it. I was able to implement something that lpeg.rex has that's called keywords, that's
-56:58.340 --> 57:00.660
-This is what I showed in the beginning.
+54:52.040 --> 54:59.160
+very useful for parsing problems in programming languages. I was able to implement something
-57:00.660 --> 57:04.100
-I'm not going to explain all the details of this thing now.
+54:59.160 --> 55:10.640
+similar to the debugger, to the pack debugger that lpeg uses, but I was frustrated by some
-57:07.460 --> 57:14.260
-This show converts this thing into LaTeX in the way specified by these instructions here.
+55:10.640 --> 55:23.280
+limitations of the debugger and I implemented my own that is much better and let me show
-57:15.380 --> 57:16.340
-Let's say that...
+55:23.280 --> 55:33.800
+something else. I was able to translate a good part of the Lua parser here to lpeg1.lua.
-57:19.540 --> 57:20.260
-Well, whatever.
+55:33.800 --> 55:45.880
+I haven't finished yet but I have most of the translation here and after having all
-57:22.740 --> 57:23.540
-Really, whatever.
+55:45.880 --> 55:54.960
+that I was able to build other grammars very quickly. Writing new parsers finally became
-57:24.020 --> 57:28.500
-And here's the result, the LaTeX result.
+55:54.960 --> 56:08.560
+fun and here's one example that I showed in the beginning. If I remember correctly, I
-57:34.900 --> 57:46.260
-And these diagrams here are generated by this file here that defines a simple grammar that parses
+56:08.560 --> 56:15.680
+took a figure from the Wikipedia, I don't have its link now, but I specify a grammar
-57:46.260 --> 57:53.460
-this thing here, and then LaTeX it in a certain way, and then also tests this thing.
+56:15.680 --> 56:24.280
+that parses exactly the example that appears in the Wikipedia. So with my grammar, considering
-57:54.100 --> 58:00.900
-To check if this code here, that is Lua code that generates an LPEG grammar,
+56:24.280 --> 56:36.680
+that the top level entry is statement, when I parse this string here, the result is this
-58:02.900 --> 58:08.740
-parses this subject here and returns the expected result.
+56:36.680 --> 56:44.840
+tree and I can do some operations on that. I can define how this thing is to be converted
-58:12.740 --> 58:15.140
-So this is the code that I wanted to show.
+56:44.840 --> 56:53.400
+into LaTeX. I can define other operations that convert trees into other trees and here's
-58:15.700 --> 58:21.700
-I wanted to show many more things, but I wasn't able to prepare them before the conference.
+56:53.400 --> 57:01.760
+some tests of these operations. This is what I showed in the beginning. I'm not going to
-58:22.580 --> 58:29.060
-And I hope that soon, for some value of soon, I'll be able to create
+57:01.760 --> 57:10.480
+explain all the details of this thing now. This show converts this thing into LaTeX in
-58:29.620 --> 58:37.060
-REPL-based tutorials for LPEG here and lpeg1.lua, where LPEG is something very famous.
+57:10.480 --> 57:39.320
+the way specified by these instructions here. And here's the result, the LaTeX result.
-58:37.060 --> 58:39.460
-Here is a module of LPEG.
+57:39.320 --> 57:46.880
+These diagrams here are generated by this file here that defines a simple grammar that
-58:40.500 --> 58:48.100
-I could also do something like this for LPEG-REX, and lpeg1.lua is the thing that I wrote,
+57:46.880 --> 57:56.720
+parses this thing here and then LaTeX it in a certain way and also tests to check if this
-58:48.820 --> 58:58.900
-the one that has tests in comments, and the tests usually generate trees,
+57:56.720 --> 58:06.600
+code here that is Lua code that generates an lpeg grammar, parses this subject here, and
-58:58.900 --> 59:00.900
-and sometimes they generate tag code.
+58:06.600 --> 58:16.880
+returns the expected result. So this is the code that I wanted to show. I wanted to show
-59:03.300 --> 59:04.420
-Yeah, so that's it.
+58:16.880 --> 58:23.920
+many more things, but I wasn't able to prepare them before the conference. And I hope that
-59:04.420 --> 59:07.860
-I wanted to present much more, but I wasn't able to prepare it.
+58:23.920 --> 58:33.240
+soon, for some value of soon, I'll be able to create REPL based tutorials for LPG, G and
-59:07.860 --> 59:08.660
-So sorry.
+58:33.240 --> 58:42.080
+ELpeg1.Lua where Lpeg is something very famous. Here is a module of LPG. I could also do something
-59:08.660 --> 59:09.140
-Thanks.
+58:42.080 --> 58:55.600
+like this for ELpeg, and ELpeg1.lua is the thing that I wrote, the one that has tests in comments
-59:09.140 --> 59:10.260
-Bye.
+58:55.600 --> 59:04.920
+and the tests usually generate trees and sometimes they generate tag code. So that's it, I wanted
+59:04.920 --> 59:26.040
+to present much more, but I wasn't able to prepare it. So sorry, thanks, bye!
