It provides all the usual high-level programming features that we've come to expect from languages like the Unix shell, Awk, Perl, or Rexx, such as: Variable-length strings Associative arrays Lists (A && B) is false. In J, it looks like this: which may better explain why I wouldn't want to code in J:^) J has ASCIIfied the zoo of APL strange character operators, at the cost of using braces and brackets as operators too, without regard for balancing, and extending them with dots and colons, so e.g. It is a scripting language that aims at providing the ability for applications to communicate with each other. For Tcl, there have been several OO extensions/frameworks (incr Tcl, XOTcl, stooop, Snit to name a few) in different flavors, but none can be considered as standard followed by a majority of users. TCL is string based scripting language and also a procedural language. Clif first learned to program in high school in machine language on a Monroe 600 programmable . Tcl/Tk 8.2.3 and Tcl/Tk 8.3.0 under windows. Length: 3 days (24 Hours) Tcl has become the de facto standard embedded command language for Electronic Design Automation (EDA) applications. Formally, what happened to the bracketed call is that it went through "applicative order" evaluation (i.e., do it now), while the braced commands wait for "normal order" evaluation (i.e., do when needed, maybe never the need is expressed through eval/upvar or similar commands). The memory model is constant-size instructions (strings in array elements), which are implemented as Tcl procs. Syntax: foreach var $Var_list { //operations for each $var } Example: On the limits: Tcl arrays may get quite large (one app was reported to store 800000 keys in Greek characters), and at some point enumerating all keys with array names db (which produces one long list) may exceed your available memory, causing the process to swap. This way, they are "pure values" and can be passed e.g. all No con-/destructors are needed, in contrast to the heavierweight matrix in Tcllib. more is the most important "end-user" of streams, especially if they are infinite. Indexes are useful for repeated information that is likely to be searched. Sorting can be done when pushing, or when popping, and since our push is so nicely generic I prefer the second choice (as the number of pushs and pops should be about equal, it does not really matter). I started with Backus' first Functional Program example. His two axioms are: and these can be implemented by a string map that is repeated as long as it makes any difference (sort of a trampoline) to simplify any expression consisting only of operators and constants (which are operators with zero arguments): which maps <><> to <>, <<>> to "", and returns <> for "true". Tcl (pronounced "tickle" or as an initialism) is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language.It was designed with the goal of being very simple but powerful. 122 exercises In these Tcl experiments, I use "" for "" and angle-brackets <> for the overbar-hook (with zero or more operands in between). Maybe another weekend John Backus turned 80 these days. Creating a new syntax for a DSL would defeat the purpose of Tcl. Note that +/ is considered one operator, which applies the "adverb" folding to the "verb" addition (one might well call it "sum"). For this we need to implement the construction operator, which is sort of inverse mapping while mapping a function over a sequence of inputs produces a sequence of outputs of that function applied to each input, Backus' construction maps a sequence of functions over one input to produce a sequence of results of each function to that input, e.g. Sorting roman numerals: I,V,X already come in the right order; for the others we have to introduce temporary collation transformations, which we'll undo right after sorting: As "control structures" are really nothing special in Tcl, just a set of commands, it is easier than in most other languages to create one's own. Saving also goes a good way to what is ceremonially called "committing" (you'll need write-locking for multi-user systems), while loading (without saving before) might be called a "one-level rollback", where you want to discard your latest changes. Streams in general should not be written in brackets (then the Tcl parser would eagerly evaluate them before evaluating the command), but braced, and stream consumers eval the stream at their discretion. This way, a stream can promise to be a potentially endless source of data, while taking only finite time to process and deliver what's really wanted. save it to a file for printing.

The following "General Problem Solver" (for small values of General) uses heavy metaprogramming: it. If composite functions like 'fork' are arguments to o*, we'd better let unknown know that we want auto-expansion of first word: Also, we need a numeric sort that's good for integers as well as reals ("Def" serves for all kinds of aliases, not just combinations of functions): As this file gets tacitly sourced, I am pretty confident that I've reached my goal for this weekend even though my median doesn't remotely look like the J version: it is as "wordy" as Tcl usually is. My "Def" creates an interp alias, which is a good and simple Tcl way to compose partial scripts (the definition, here) with one or more arguments, also known as "currying": The second parameter, "=", is for better looks only and evidently never used. Bit vectors can also be used to indicate set membership (set operations would run faster if processing 32 bits on one go with bitwise operators (&, |, ~, ^)) or pixels in a binary imary image, where each row could be implemented by a bitvector. Nth Prime Tcl is a scripting language somewhat like Perl but extensible and clearer. The book includes a short introduction to TCP/IP, as well as longer introductions to writing client . # predecessor function, when for integers. priority queue is any of the more clever ways: A*, Greedy, builds up a nest of foreachs suiting the problem, quick kills (with continue) to force unique values for the variables, and. See all Tcl exercises Get started with the Tcl track The best part, it's 100% free for everyone. Rules in this little challenge are of the form a bcD e, where, Here's my naive implementation, which takes the tape just as the string it initially is. }, can be represented by their truth table, which for example for {$a && $b} looks like: As all but the last column just enumerate all possible combinations of the arguments, first column least-significant, the full representation of a&&b is the last column, a sequence of 0s and 1s which can be seen as binary integer, reading from bottom up: 1 0 0 0 == 8. Tcl (Tool Command Language) is a very powerful but easy to learn dynamic programming language, suitable for a very wide range of uses, including web and desktop applications, networking, administration, testing and many more. If bitval is given, sets the bit at numeric position position to 1 if bitval != 0, else to 0; in any case returns the bit value at specified position. A more generic filter takes a condition and a stream, and on each call returns an element of the input stream where the condition holds if ever one comes along: Friends of syntactic sugar might prefer shell style: and guess what, we can have that in Tcl too (and not in Scheme!-), by writing a proc, that also resets all sprocs, with the fancy name "$" (in Unix, this could be the shell prompt that you don't type, but for Tcl we always have to have the command name as first word): To prove that we haven't cheated by using exec, let's introduce a line counter filter: This can be added to filter chains, to count lines in the original file, or only the results from grep: We further observe that more has a similar structure to filter, so we could also rewrite it in terms of that: The sort filter is unusual in that it consumes its whole (finite!) Classes in C++ started out as structs, so I take a minimal struct as example, with generic get and set methods. # make a list of 2**n lists, each with n truth values 0|1, #-- And here's some more hand-crafted bytecode implementations, #-- The stack routines imply a global stack::S, for simplicity, # a bytecode will consume at most two elements, #-- make a table of bytecode stack balances, #-- "peephole optimizer" - suppress code with redundancies. They're great practice and fun to do! 122 exercises to help you write better code. Here I use a global array for recording results: delivers in hardly noticeable time the R. numbers 1729, 4104, 13832 Or, how's this infinite Fibonacchi number generator, which on more fibo produces all the F.numbers (0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21) you might want? The special item "" (the empty string) indicates that the stream is exhausted. However, most of these share the features. Exercise 1 - Tcl procedure. # - rewrite a proc's default arg with given value. The process of creating a simple database consists only of setting an initial value for the ID: Let's consider a library application for an example. Tcl's lsort is stable, so items with equal priority will remain in the order in which they were queued: A practical application is e.g. Tcl was designed for creating domain-specific languages. In fact, the float limit is at n>170, so an intermediate result in the Stirling formula must have busted at 144. This idea may have been first brought up in Functional programming (Backus 1977), if not in Forth and Joy, and it's an interesting simplification compared to the lambda calculus. is a popular function with super-exponential growth. (!a || !b), but then again, these functions are equivalent. Any proc must however be called in compliance with Tcl's fundamental syntax: first word is the command name, then the arguments separated by whitespace. Running other programs from Tcl - exec, open Channel I/O: socket, fileevent, vwait More channel I/O - fblocked and fconfigure Communicating with other programs - socket, fileevent Time and Date - clock Using databases Introspection, Debugging and Performance Learning the existence of commands and variables - info State of the interpreter - info If you are able to automate below few task, more then 50% of work (based on TCL) can be done easily. :). ): proc flatten_list { l } { if { [llength $l] == 0 } { return {} } elseif { [llength $l] == 1 && [lindex $l 0] == $l } { return $l } else { set ret {} Like in switch, fall-through collapsing of several cases is indicated by "-", and "default" as final condition fires if none else did. Doing more steps towards functional programming, I came upon this interesting problem, and will shortly demonstrate that it can easily be solved in pure-Tcl. Just say "Hello, World!". Tcl - Environment Setup . Accessing fields in a table is more fun with the field names than the numeric indexes, which is made easy by the fact that the field names are in the first row: Here is how to filter a table by giving pairs of field name and glob-style expression in addition to the header line, all rows that satisfy at least one of those come through (you can force AND behavior by just nesting such calls): This filters (and, if wanted, rearranges) columns, sort of what is called a "view": In the following few chapters you'll see how easy it is to emulate or explore other programming languages with Tcl. The goto command is defined "locally", and deleted after leaving the state machine it is not meaningfully used outside of it. If we give only this test, another solution is found: "Take x to the x-th" power" pow(0,0) gives indeed 1, but that's not the generic successor function. if someone mentions its name (minibot), tries to parse the message and answer. They always return a result (even if it is the empty string ""), so to call them functions might be most appropriate. Bertrand Russell commented that the author "has revealed a new calculus, of great power and simplicity" (somehow sounds like Tcl;^). An important functional form is the conditional, which at Backus looks like. For this we again need a 1-based integer range generator: At this point, a number is prime if the sum of the latest vector is 2. Ramanujan numbers: The pairs generator can be used to find Ramanujan numbers, which can be represented as the sum of two integer cubes in more than one way. For easier handling, it's a good idea to classify records somehow (we'll want to store more than books), so we add. is building a list of the floor and the ceiling of its single argument, the comma being the concatenation operator here, comparable to Backus' "construction" or Joy's cleave. Join Exercisms Tcl Track for access to For the 1000 programs with Goedel numbers 1..1000, it retains only a fraction for each stack balance: Simple starter discover the successor function (add one): Not bad: duplicate the number twice, divide by itself to get the constant 1, and add that to the original number. TCL is shell application that reads TCL command from its standard input or from a file and gives desired results. The following scripts are plain Tcl, they don't use the Tk GUI toolkit (there's a separate chapter for those). In Europe and elsewhere, the most widely used paper format is called A4. Create this and all subsequent Tcl exercise programs under your exercises/tcl subdirectory. true. For example, in. This looks better to me than /slashing as in Postscript. was instigated by the fact that in J, "NB." So here is one model of a state machine in ten lines of code. line-ends \r\n are not standardized to \n as usual in C), and prints as many lines as needed which each contain 16 bytes in hexadecimal notation, plus, where possible, the ASCII character. And formatMatrix and outProd are so general that one might include them in some library, while the task of producing a multiplication table may not come up any more for a long time Tcl follows strictly the Polish notation, where an operator or function always precedes its arguments. But this very soon crosses the limits of integers, giving wrong results. The test suite at end should give many examples of what one can do in "r". Clif is the author of the TclTutor package2 and the books Tcl/Tk for Real Programmers and Tcl/Tk: A Developer's Guide3. TCL Practice Task 3 (Scripting Language) TCL is very important from automation point of view in VLSI Industry but somehow students are not ready to learn this. Whether you need to automate repetitive behavior, extend the functionality of an application, control multiple tools with a single script or create a custom GUI, Tcl is your best choice. Transparent OO for Tcl, or TOOT for short, is a very amazing combination of Tcl's concept of transparent values, and the power of OO concepts. through functions that take a table and return a table. Here, pushing has to be done by dedicated code because a previous instance would have to be removed: The first element is the least recently, the last the most recently used. Make sure the fields (cells) match those in the header. To find out how big a paper format is, one can measure an instance with a ruler, or look up appropriate documentation. But the program "dd" (which just duplicates the top of stack twice) has a stack balance of +2, and hence can never pass the example test. $ mkdir ~/cs498gpl/exercises/tcl $ cd ~/cs498gpl/exercises/tcl. This page was last edited on 16 April 2020, at 06:44. Consider the following model: Fields may well be implemented as array entries, so we could have an array per record, or better one array for the whole database, where the key is composed of ID and tag. Tcl/Tk for Programmers is an introduction to the high-level Tcl/Tk scripting language for experienced programmers with either Unix or Windows background. The balance of longer programs can be computed by just adding the balances of their individual bytecodes: The partitioning will run for some seconds (depending on nmax I tried with several ten thousand), but it's needed only once. The idea in the paper I read is to use them as names of very simple functions: Glory be to the 11 rules of man Tcl that this is already a crude though sufficient reimplementation: The bracketed expr command is evaluated first, returning 0 or 1 as result of the comparison. Rational numbers, a.k.a. The following script. (after 286 seconds): After partitioning, 54005 programs had the -1 stack balance, and the correct result was on position 48393 in that list And finally, with the half-million set of programs, here's a solution for the successor function too: "d-" subtracts top of stack from itself, pushing 0; the second duplicate to the 0-th power gives 1, which is added to the original argument. The toplevel proc takes a paired list of inputs and expected output. Training will provide the detailed practical exposure on each aspect of project flow setup mostly focused on Physical Design, STA, and functional verification with multiple hands on examples. Since the pseudo-register M can also be used for writing back, it cannot be implemented by simply copying the value. Introduction to the Tcl 3 Language The next ve chapters constitute a Tcl language tutorial. Tcl is a powerful scripting language that runs under Unix, Linux, VMS, DOS/Windows, OS/2, and MacOS (at least). Intro to Tcl: Exercises #2 Exercises #2 Rewrite the change function (Exercise 1.3) to work for any set of coins (or notes) for any decimal currency. After version 8.0/8.0, the unusually fast development of Tcl/Tk has slowed to a more normal pace. In an RPN language, the example might look like this: which has the advantage that execution goes from left to right, but requires some stack awareness (and some swaps to set the stack right;^), Implementing Def, I took an easy route by just creating a proc that adds an argument and leaves it to the "functional" to do the right thing (with some quoting heaven:-) }. Chapter 4 discusses Tcl I/O support for les, pipes, and sockets. But func isn't limited to math functions (which, especially when recursive, come out nice), but for expr uses in testing predicates as well: Exposing expr binary arithmetic operators as Tcl commands goes quite easy too: For "-", we distinguish unary and binary form: Having the modulo operator exposed, gcd now looks nicer: For unary not I prefer that name to "! Here are some Tcl codelets to demonstrate how all Boolean operations can be expressed in terms of the single NAND operator, which returns true if not both his two inputs are true (NOR would have done equally well). The correct hypot() function would be. Enrol for e-learning course for self paced learning. OO (Object Orientation) is a style in programming languages popular since Smalltalk, and especially C++, Java, etc. Different from switch, numbers are compared by numeric value, no matter whether given as decimal, octal or hex. Just like functions, procedures take arguments and return some value. ", http://csc.smsu.edu/~shade/333/project.txt, https://en.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Tcl_Programming/Examples&oldid=3678753, Common Lisp: (documentation 'foo 'function), The ratio between the longer and the shorter side of an A format is constant, pop: retrieve and remove one object from the container, in a stack, the most recently pushed object is retrieved and removed (last in first out, LIFO), in a (normal) queue, it is the least recently pushed object (first in first out, FIFO). Arguments are pushed on the stack, and the result of the "software", the stack at end, is returned. is used as comment indicator, both being well known Latin abbreviations: Again, the "->" argument is for eye-candy only but it feels better to me at least. Exercism is fun, effective and The numbers of the bits finally still set are supposed to be primes, and returned: Here's code to count the number of 1-bits in a bit vector, represented as an integer list. If they don't, we have found a fact that isn't dependent on the variable's value, and the resulting constant is returned, otherwise the unsolved expression: with a helper function in that reports containment of an element in a list: which means, in expr terms, {(!$a || $a) == 1}, for all values of a. Another example, cooked up by myself this time, computes the average of a list. In Tcl, a sensible implementation for compact data storage would be as a list of lists. Tcl is a string based scripting language. Here I want to explore how a database can be implemented in the Tcl spirit of simplicity, and how far that approach takes us. fractions, can be thought of as pairs of integers {numerator denominator}, such that their "real" numerical value is numerator/denominator (and not in integer nor "double" division!). Filters may be characterized as "selectors" (who may return only part of their input, like "grep") and/or "appliers" who call a command on their input and return the result. #-- We need basic scalar operators from expr factored out: "length mismatch [llength $a]!= [llength $b]". Adding "records" to the table is as easy as. I added converters between characters and integers, and between strings and lists (see the dictionary below). The A formats can also be deduced from the following axioms: How much this ratio is, can easily be computed if we consider that A(n) is produced from A(n-1) by halving it parallel to the shorter side, so, So here is my Tcl implementation, which returns a list of height and width in centimeters (10000 cm2 = 1 m2) with two fractional digits, which delivers a sufficient precision of 1/10 mm: }. On the other hand, Tk is a cross platform widget toolkit used for building GUI in many languages. returns the first solution found, or else an empty string: A record is a nonempty set of fields with a unique ID, A field is a pair of tag and nonempty value, both being strings, a set F of functions that map objects into objects (, an operation, application (very roughly, eval), a set FF of functional forms, used to combine functions or objects to form new functions in F, a set D of definitions that map names to functions in F, "tcl" evaluates the top of stack as a Tcl script, scalar @ scalar scalar (like expr does), vector @ vector vector (all of same dimensions, element-wise), measure the stack balance for each bytecode, iterate once over very many possible programs, computing their stack balance, partition them (put into distinct subsets) by stack balance, perform each 'discovery' call only on programs of matching stack balance, Brute force is simple, but may demand very much patience (or faster hardware), The sky, not the skull is the limit what all we can do with Tcl:), classes can be defined, with variables and methods, objects are created as instances of a class, objects are called with messages to perform a method, or just as parts of a transparent value, with TOOT, a is the state in which they can be applied, b is the character that must be read from tape if this rule is to apply, D is the direction to move the tape after writing (R(ight) or L(eft)), e is the state to transition to after the rule was applied, Every animal is suitable for a pet, that loves to gaze at the moon, No animals are carnivorous, unless they prowl at night, No animals ever take to me, except what are in this house, Animals that prowl at night always love to gaze at the moon. The print version is available from Amazon in USA/Canada and their European sites including UK , Germany , France , Spain and Italy . Tcl/Tk for Programmers is an introduction to the high-level Tcl/Tk scripting language for experienced programmers with either Unix or Windows background. Especially, indexing the isa field allows iterating over "tables" (which we still don't explicitly have! Should you need a unit matrix (where the main diagonal is 1, and the rest is 0), just call outProd with a different function (equality, ==): which just requires expr's equality to be exposed too: One of the fascinations of functional programming is that one can do the job in a simple and clear way (typically a one-liner), while using a collection of reusable building-blocks like lmap and iota. of Tcl. We still have the canonical truth values 0 and 1 as returned from expr with a comparison operator. Streams are interesting if they don't deliver the same result on every call, which requires them to maintain state between calls e.g. Practical Programming in Tcl and Tk by Brent Welch, Ken Jones. However, as integer division takes place, it would be better to make that. Threads are for people who can't program state machines.". with automatic analysis Tcl is a popular and widely used cross-platform script programming language that achieves significant productivity gains when used by skilled engineers. I won't go into all details of the above code, just some: (<.,>.) Such process chains can be emulated in Tcl with the following rules: A stream is modelled here as a procedure that returns one stream item on each call. The book includes a short introduction to TCP/IP, as well as longer introductions to writing client . Tcl/Tk 8.5 Programming Cookbook (2011) , by Bert Wheeler, provides over 100 recipes to effectively use Tcl/Tk 8.5. This code for transposing a matrix uses the fact that variable names can be any string, including those that look like integers, so the column contents are collected into variables named 0 1 2 and finally turned into the result list: An integer range generator produces the variable names, e.g iota 3 => {0 1 2}. So I tried with another a^2+b^2=c^2 set, and HEUREKA! In Tcl, the two ways of reading a file are a good example: The second construct may be less efficient, but is robust for gigabyte-sized files. OK, I bite the bullet, set nmax to 500000, wait 5 minutes for the partitioning, and then: Hm.. cheap trick again it was discovered that the solution is just the successor of the second argument. Chapters 5-8 introduce more commands and techniques and giving the correct result 2.5. orders to, and bills from, booksellers) can be added with little effort, and cross-related also to external files (just set the value to the filename). For Joy's sets I haven't bothered yet they are restricted to the domain 0..31, probably implemented with bits in a 32-bit word. A Functional Style and Its Algebra of Programs. Tcl/Tk for Programmers introduces high-level Tcl/Tk scripting language to experienced programmers with either Unix or Windows backgrounds. In this article, we will know how to use procedures in TCL. In Spencer-Brown's terms, [] (which is "", the empty string with no arguments) is false ("nil" in LISP), and [<>] is the negation of "", i.e. Another test, inequality: Trying to call 14 (OR) with more than two args: The constant 0 result is a subtle indication that we did something wrong:). They are for instance the building blocks of relational databases and spreadsheets. Continuous, active development since the early 1990's. Tcl - Logical Operators. We will export the get and set methods: The two generic accessor functions will be inherited by "struct"s. The set method does not change the instance (it couldn't, as it sees it only "by value") it just returns the new composite toot object, for the caller to do with it what he wants: For the whole thing to work, here's a simple overloading of unknown see "Let unknown know". For functional composition, where, say for two functions f and g. again a proc is created that does the bracket nesting: Why Backus used Transpose on the input, wasn't first clear to me, but as he (like we Tclers) represents a matrix as a list of rows, which are again lists (also known as vectors), it later made much sense to me.
