Clojurians Log v2

it looks like we may be good to release this week

the sporadic REPL breakage was because of some subtle tweaks in GCL

standard REPLs seem fine - and minor changes were required for Ambly and Krell

quite possible other REPLs aren't affected

looking into the CI issues

There was some discussion previously about BigInt support (perhaps extending some of the experimental stuff done in https://gist.github.com/mfikes/9fc981ed7a190b8e9b2912eee98fdd5e). I'm going to put together some notes regarding a more expansive design to add a numeric tower to ClojureScript that mimics Clojure's (for example, including ratios and other things).

@mfikes @sritchie09 has implemented this for ClojureScript for http://github.com/sicmutils/sicmutils

Yup, Ratio, BigInt, and the goog numbers are all covered if you want to talk, @mfikes

Oh, nice. I'll take a look at that. 🙂

numbers.cljc, value.cljc, ratio.cljc

Hah. It would be interesting to have complex number support in the Clojure tower. 🙂

I was going to say, for bonus points :):)

And then a sqrt core function so (sqrt -1) returns one

Quaternions coming to Clojure 1.12

@mfikes I’m very happy to do an extensively annotated version of those namespaces for or with you, to explain why I had to add each non obvious piece

That's cool. I'll probably just read through it at some point.

@mkvlr @sritchie09 we'll definitely take a look - but @mfikes is looking into something integrated into the compiler etc. + the runtime stuff

it's gonna be a long-ish project

@dnolen no rush, didn’t expect it to be a small thing. In the short term: let us know when we should give master another try, our CI was green with https://github.com/clojure/clojurescript/commit/69b66374d857a176c5a9cd8cc0cbb7506876640d

yes, of course this makes sense. I should have said I’ve stared at this a bit and am happy to help with the effort, if there’s some way to do it
