That's interesting, I didn't know Racket worked like that. What I meant wasn't so much that its a new idea, rather that it's a good one.

Racket works this way.

Thanks for mentioning this.. very interesting. I even had this project starred on Github but did not remember it.. :)

I will give racket another look. Do you by any chance know some more real world Racket applications?

That certainly isn't the case with Racket either :)

This is why Racket has both.

I guess you are using Racket? Anyway, it's good to know that your approach works.

Has anyone attempted to do anything like this in Racket?

Thanks for the info. Curious - why the re-write if racket performed well enough?

Can you explain how racket solves this?

Also I had not heard of racket before, so that’s interesting too https://racket-lang.org/ thanks.

Have you ever looked into Racket?

Haven't watched the video yet because I'm at work, so pardon my likely misunderstanding of what the video is about, but wasn't there also someone working on something like this in Racket? Are you aware of each other's work?

I see, thanks so much for the detailed comment. I will check out Racket. Heard about it but didn’t look into it in depth.

Thanks, Racket is something I knew about, but never considered learning. Will take a look.

Several years ago I documented in a blog post a few experiments I did with Racket [1]. The experience was extremely pleasant, Racket is well designed and the documentation is superb.

Now that is awesome thank you! The more I have been looking into this the more I see how Racket could be the best tool for data munging.

duncan_bayne | karma 4002 | avg karma 1.91 · | 2017-08-01 07:45:58+00:00

Have you tried Racket?

aswanson | karma 5136 | avg karma 1.92 · | 2019-08-08 14:34:10+00:00

Yeah. But Racket seems so much cooler.

monsterix | karma 1903 | avg karma 3.03 · | 2013-11-01 04:56:49+00:00

> racket

That's an interesting choice of word!

How about Racket?
