Re: [Bug-apl] Crash when refining an incorrect function

[Elias Mårtenson]

Should it really give an error though? Shouldn't I be able to simply redefine an existing function? I'm not sure what the standard says about that though.

Nevertheless, trying to edit the erroneous function gives me a different error message:

      ⍝ Define a function with an intentional bug

      ∇ r←x z y

[1] foo

[2] r←x+y

[3] ∇

      ⍝ Try to call the function

      10 z 20

VALUE ERROR

z[1]  foo

      ^

      ⍝ Now try to edit the function to fix the error

      ∇z

bad editor command '∇z' : problem 'Nabla.cc:442'

DEFN ERROR

      ∇z

       ^

Regards,

Elias

Hello Elias,

I have fixed the ⍎'→3' and ∇ r←x z y problems, see SVN version 44.

The ∇-Editor now throws a DEFN ERROR (the function should have been
opened with ∇z since an already existing function is opened).
