"In fact, as Ethan Dicks has pointed out, virtually anything can be given to the troll (or thief) in this version: your hands, your eyes, the eastern wall, a compass direction, even "ME". The troll will then eat them and you will be unable to interact with them for the rest of the game (although you can still go "east" if you give "east" to the troll)."

Today I learned something horrible: emacs lisp uses dynamic scope.
14:05
< celticminstrel>
?
14:07
<@ToxicFrog>
Bindings are stacked at runtime rather than compile time.
14:07
< celticminstrel>
...there's a compile time in lisp?
14:09
<@ToxicFrog>
...yes? Most interpreted languages have a compile step, it just happens just before it runs (and doesn't emit machine code)
14:09
< celticminstrel>
Okay then.
14:10
<@ToxicFrog>
Emacs Lisp in particular compiles to bytecode for the EL virtual machine, and _can_ be precompiled to improve load times (because it can skip compilation and just feed the bytecode image straight into the VM)
14:10 OperatorAbu_ [ad@Nightstar-6571a1f3.gprs.plus.pl] has left #code []
14:11
<@ToxicFrog>
Anyways. What this means if that the following EL code: (defun (test x) (lambda () x)) ((test 1))
14:11
<@ToxicFrog>
Will complain that x is undefined rather than returning 1.
14:11
<@ToxicFrog>
(or possibly it will return some unrelated global x)
14:12
<@ToxicFrog>
Because by the time the lambda is called, the x that was passed to test is no longer in scope.
14:17
<@ToxicFrog>
There are some (ugly) macros to work around this and let you create closures anyways :/
14:22 * ToxicFrog eyes python
14:22
<@ToxicFrog>
Why would entries vanish from a dictionary?
14:24
< celticminstrel>
No idea. :/
14:24
< celticminstrel>
...well, unless you explicitly delete them.
14:25
<@ToxicFrog>
...or, perhaps, because I got myloops mixed up and was reinitializing the dictionary every loop, so only the last (4000/pathlen) entries were making it into the final version.
14:25
<@ToxicFrog>
And this was not an obvious error because python ues function scope rather than block scope >.<
14:27
< celticminstrel>
Which is kind of helpful sometimes.
14:32
<@ToxicFrog>
When?
14:32 Thaqui [Thaqui@27B34E.D54D49.F53FA1.6A113C] has joined #code
14:32
<@ToxicFrog>
You can do function scope with block scope just by declaring your locals at function level. You can't do the converse except by wrapping each block with a lambda (which is ugly in most languages and doesn't work in python anyways)
14:34
< celticminstrel>
When you assign a variable in an if-else statement and the use it later.
14:34
< celticminstrel>
Though you're right, it can be done with block scope by pre-declaring the variable.
14:40
<@ToxicFrog>
I'd rather predeclare than having loop variables leaking all over the place.
