My favourite functions, #1 Plural()
|
| |
I revel in the pleasure that I get from adding really useful routines to my library (subroutines.rex) for use in Object Rexx.
Hoping to spread some of this pleasure around, I'm going to describe a few of the functions, starting with plural()
I really dislike programs which generate statements such as:... more »

Set: hasItem vs. hasIndex
|
| |
Recently I've been hit by a large run-time penalty when I was using hasItem() to check for the existence of items in a large Set (~500.000 items).
Checking for the existence of 1.000 items with hasItem() took 20+ seconds.
Checking the same with hasIndex() took less than 0.01 seconds.
While I do understand that in the general case, hasItem() may take longer than hasIndex(): in the case of Set, shouldn't those two methods behave the same?... more »

Method to decide whether to return copy, or modify receiver
|
| |
Can a method find out whether it is expected to return a (modified) copy of the receiver, or if it should directly modify the receiver?
I'd like to code e. g. a method "transpose" that, when called with
"Trans=Matrix~transpose"
it would return a copy of the transposed matrix, but when called with... more »

Space in file names: Problem with e.g. SysIsFileDirectory
|
| |
Using ooRexx 4.0.1 on Linux, I've struck a problem with filenames containing
spaces,
E.g. SysIsFileDirectory("/home/user /UKFSN list") does not find the directory.
What method is used to get around that problem, please?
