Here are another four patches of numerics improvements.

The second patch adds fast C implementations of the R6RS
number-theoretic division operations: `div-and-mod', `div', `mod',
`div0-and-mod0', `div0' and `mod0'.  Note that these operations will
accept any real numbers (except division by zero), not just integers.

The first three are equivalent to `euclidean/' et al from Taylor
Campbell's proposal, and those are the names I gave them in guile core.
The other three I named `centered/', `centered-quotient', and
`centered-remainder', because the range of their remainder operation is
centered on 0 in a twos-complement sort of way.  They are almost the
same as Taylor's `round/' et al, but in my opinion they have superior
properties, as I explained in a recent commentary on this list.

The last two patches improve the extensibility of numeric operations,
and as a side effect add documentation strings to many of them.

The last patch might be slightly controversial.  Although it does not
make `integer-expt' a generic function, nonetheless it can now
exponentiate _any_ scheme object that can be multiplied using `*'.
raising to a negative exponent, the reciprocal operation must also be
supported.  As a side effect, (expt <obj> 0) will return 1 and
(expt <obj> 1) will return <obj> for any scheme object whatsoever,
without operating on it at all.  Raising to any other power will however
throw an exception if the requisite methods have not been defined.

I've attached a simple demo that I wrote in about 10 minutes, which
defines a bare-bones matrix class and uses `expt' to do fast matrix
exponentiation.  The demo uses this to define a very fast and exact
fibonacci procedure (fib n).

    Best,
     Mark

Subject: [PATCH] Add two new sets of fast quotient and remainder operators

* libguile/numbers.c (scm_euclidean_quo_and_rem, scm_euclidean_quotient,
  scm_euclidean_remainder, scm_centered_quo_and_rem,

  renaming imports of `euclidean-quotient', `euclidean-remainder',
  `euclidean/', `centered-quotient', `centered-remainder', and
  `centered/', which are equivalent to the R6RS operators.

* module/rnrs/arithmetic/fixnums.scm (fxdiv, fxmod, fxdiv-and-mod,
  fxdiv0, fxmod0, fxdiv0-and-mod0): Remove redundant checks for division
  by zero and unnecessary complexity.
  (fx+/carry): Remove unneeded calls to `inexact->exact'.

* module/rnrs/arithmetic/flonums.scm (fldiv, flmod, fldiv-and-mod,
  fldiv0, flmod0, fldiv0-and-mod0): Remove redundant checks for division
  by zero and unnecessary complexity.  Remove unneeded calls to
  `inexact->exact' and `exact->inexact'

* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: (test-eqv?): New internal predicate for
  comparing numerical outputs with expected values.

  Add extensive test code for `euclidean/', `euclidean-quotient',
  `euclidean-remainder', `centered/', `centered-quotient',
  `centered-remainder'.

* test-suite/tests/r6rs-arithmetic-fixnums.test: Fix some broken test
  cases, and remove `unresolved' test markers for `fxdiv', `fxmod',
  `fxdiv-and-mod', `fxdiv0', `fxmod0', and `fxdiv0-and-mod0'.

* test-suite/tests/r6rs-arithmetic-flonums.test: Remove `unresolved'
  test markers for `fldiv', `flmod', `fldiv-and-mod', `fldiv0',
  `flmod0', and `fldiv0-and-mod0'.

* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Arithmetic): Document `euclidean/',
  `euclidean-quotient', `euclidean-remainder', `centered/',
  `centered-quotient', and `centered-remainder'.

  (Operations on Integer Values): Add cross-references to `euclidean/'
  et al, from `quotient', `remainder', and `modulo'.

* doc/ref/r6rs.texi (rnrs base): Improve documentation for `div', `mod',
  `div-and-mod', `div0', `mod0', and `div0-and-mod0'.  Add
  cross-references to `euclidean/' et al.

* NEWS: Add NEWS entry.

+@deffnx {Scheme Procedure} div0-and-mod0 x y
+These procedures accept two real numbers @var{x} and @var{y}, where the
+divisor @var{y} must be non-zero.  @code{div0} returns the
+integer @var{q} and @code{rem0} returns the real number
+@var{r} such that @math{@var{x} = @var{q}*@var{y} + @var{r}} and
+@math{-abs(@var{y}/2) <= @var{r} < abs(@var{y}/2)}.  @code{div0-and-mod0}
+returns both @var{q} and @var{r}, and is more efficient than computing
+each separately.
+
+Note that @code{div0} returns @math{@var{x}/@var{y}} rounded to the
+nearest integer.  When @math{@var{x}/@var{y}} lies exactly half-way
+between two integers, the tie is broken according to the sign of
+@var{y}.  If @math{@var{y} > 0}, ties are rounded toward positive
+infinity, otherwise they are rounded toward negative infinity.
+This is a consequence of the requirement that
+@math{-abs(@var{y}/2) <= @var{r} < abs(@var{y}/2)}.

From 6e9ee1bdbd3a449d7d864d52a42cbab630d57ca1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Mark H Weaver <mhw@netris.org>
Date: Sun, 30 Jan 2011 09:52:51 -0500
Subject: [PATCH] Improve extensibility of core numeric procedures

* libguile/numbers.c (scm_quotient, scm_remainder, scm_modulo,
  scm_zero_p, scm_positive_p, scm_negative_p, scm_real_part,
  scm_imag_part, scm_numerator, scm_denominator, scm_magnitude,
  scm_angle, scm_exact_to_inexact): Change from SCM_GPROC to
  SCM_PRIMITIVE_GENERIC.  As a side effect, all of these procedures now
  have documentation strings.

  (scm_exact_p, scm_inexact_p, scm_odd_p, scm_even_p, scm_finite_p,
  scm_inf_p, scm_nan_p, scm_expt, scm_inexact_to_exact, scm_log,
  scm_log10, scm_exp, scm_sqrt): Change from SCM_DEFINE to
  SCM_PRIMITIVE_GENERIC, and make sure the code allows these functions
  to be extended in practice.

  (scm_real_part, scm_imag_part, scm_numerator, scm_denominator,
  scm_inexact_to_exact): Simplify type dispatch code.

  (scm_sqrt): Rename formal argument from x to z, since complex numbers
  are supported.

  (scm_abs): Fix empty FUNC_NAME.

* libguile/numbers.h (scm_finite_p): Add missing prototype.

  (scm_inf_p, scm_nan_p): Rename formal parameter from n to x, since
  the domain is the real numbers.

* test-suite/tests/numbers.test: Test for documentation strings.  Change
  from `expect-fail' to `pass-if' for several of these, and add tests
  for others.  Also add other tests for `real-part' and `imag-part',
  which previously had none.

Subject: [PATCH] Improve extensibility of `expt' and `integer-expt'

* libguile/numbers.c (scm_integer_expt): No longer require that the

  allows us to efficiently raise arbitrary objects to an integer power

  to efficiently exponentiate matrices if we define only multiplication

I agree they do have some good properties, and am happy to see them in
the core, and with non-privileged names (allowing for round_quotient et
al to be added, possibly, in the future).

If you have time though, I wonder would scm_centered_divide be a better
name than scm_centered_quo_and_rem?  "Divide" is the pronunciation of
the "/" procedure, I think.

Much appreciated.

To me this is fine, in principle; but I wonder about causing `(expt #t
0)' to produce 1.  It seems that in any case the range of the output
should be continuous -- i.e. if (expt <my-matrix> 1) produces a matrix,
and (expt <my-matrix> n) for n > 1 makes a matrix, then (expt
<my-matrix> 0) should also produce a matrix.  Or no?

Cheers,

Andy

Hello!

Thanks for working on this!

There are related test failures on i686-linux-gnu:

  http://hydra.nixos.org/build/875025

You can see the log and browse the build tree from there.

(I don’t want to be offensive, it’s just that I just feel a bit of
pressure with this release thing.  ;-))

Subject: [PATCH] Rework the testing framework for number-theoretic division operators

* test-suite/tests/numbers.test (test-eqv?): Remove special handling of
  zeroes.  Zeroes are now compared like all other numbers.  Exact
  numbers are compared with `eqv?' and inexact numbers are compared to
  within test-epsilon.

  Rework the testing framework for number-theoretic division operators:
  `euclidean/', `euclidean-quotient', `euclidean-remainder',
  `centered/', `centered-quotient', and `centered-remainder'.
  Previously we compared all test results against a simple scheme
  implementation of the same operations.  However, these operations have
  discontinuous jumps where a tiny change in the inputs can lead to a
  large change in the outputs, e.g.:

    (euclidean/ 130.00000000000 10/7) ==> 91.0 and 0.0
    (euclidean/ 129.99999999999 10/7) ==> 90.0 and 1.42857142856141

  In the new testing scheme, we compare values against the simple
  implementations only if the input arguments contain an infinity or a
  NaN.  In the common case of two finite arguments, we simply make sure
  that the outputs of all three operators (e.g. `euclidean/',
  `euclidean-quotient', `euclidean-remainder') equal each other, that
  outputs are exact iff both inputs are exact, and that the required
  properties of the operator are met: that Q is an integer, that R is
  within the specified range, and that N = Q*D + R.

When using generic arithmetic operators, there's no way to return
objects of the correct type in all corner cases like this.

Since (expt <obj> N) for exact non-negative integer N may be defined as
(* <obj> <obj> <obj> ...) with N arguments, then what you are proposing
is essentially equivalent to this:

 (* <my-matrix> <my-matrix>) yields a matrix, and
 (* <my-matrix>) yields a matrix, therefore
 (*) should also yield a matrix.

Obviously there's no way to do this with a generic `*' operator.  In
fact, you can't even do it with a special `matrix*' operator, because it
wouldn't know what size the matrix should be.  You'd need a distinct `*'
operator for each size.  With tensors it gets even more hairy.
Similarly for `+' and `-'.

To avoid these complications, it is conventional to allow 1 to stand for
any multiplicative identity and for 0 to stand for any additive
identity.  Furthermore, it is convenient to allow any scalar to be
interpreted as the relevant multiplicative identity times that scalar.

     Best,
      Mark

Well... OK!  I'm feeling reckless, so I'm applying and pushing your
patch.  Here goes nothing!

I did apply it, but it made the test cases start to fail, because
numbers.test is loaded after ecmascript.test, and:

    scheme@(guile-user)> ,L ecmascript
    Happy hacking with ECMAScript!  To switch back, type `,L scheme'.
    ecmascript@(guile-user)> true * true;
    $1 = 1
    ecmascript@(guile-user)> ,L scheme
    Happy hacking with Scheme!  To switch back, type `,L ecmascript'.
    scheme@(guile-user)> (* #t #t)
    $2 = 1

I think that's the thing, anyway.  It just sounds really squirrelly.
Could you not extend `expt' or `integer-expt' instead?

How could changes in `expt' possibly affect (true * true) or (* #t #t)?
I don't understand what this has to do with my patch.

Sorry, I wasn't clear.

Your patch replaced a test that expected `(expt #t 0)' to fail with one
that expected `(expt #t 2)' to fail.  I assumed it was because it was
treating `(expt #t 2)' as `(* #t #t)', but I could be mistaken there.

You can see this error if you run the full ./check-guile, not just
./check-guile numbers.test.

Cheers,

Andy

Oh, I see.  Your implementation of ecmascript extends `*' to work on
booleans, is that right?  If so, then I think it naturally follows that
(expt <bool> K) should also work.

If there were a test case in numbers.test to verify that (* #t #t)
throws an exception (a test no less reasonable than (expt #t 2)), then
ecmascript would break that too, even without my recent patch.

I think it would be okay to simply remove the (expt #t 2) and
(integer-expt #t 2) tests.

In a sense there is no need to extend any of the arithmetic operators.
We could just force people to make their own operators like `g+', `g*',
etc.

The advantage of being able to extend the normal operators is that
existing code that uses `+', `*', `expt', etc, can work with any new
data type you later add.  It allows the whole system to be extensible.
I think that's a huge win.

     Mark
