Unicode vs. Programming Languages

By indeyets, on July 26th, 2007%

I really-really want to see a programming language, which allows using proper unicode symbols for operators.

I mean:

× instead of *
→ instead of ->
← instead if <-
≠ instrad of !=
≤ and ≥ instead of <= and >=

This list can be continued more and more…

I perfectly understand the roots of current situation and I don’t ask to use . . . → Read More: Unicode vs. Programming Languages

DateTime vs numeric timezone

By indeyets, on July 11th, 2007%

Is it possible to create DateTime object if I have some date string, and a numeric timezone value?

Something like:

$timestamp = ’2007-07-07 07:07:07′;
$timezone = ‘+0300′;

$obj = new DateTime($timestamp, new DateTimeZone(????));

I need this, to add proper support for YAML-timestamps in my syck extension.

In YAML, timestamps have several representations:

canonical: 2001-12-15T02:59:43.1Z
valid iso8601: . . . → Read More: DateTime vs numeric timezone

YAML: Syck for PHP is not read-only anymore

By indeyets, on July 5th, 2007%

One more good news for you, YAML-users.
I’ve implemented emitter functionality in php-binding of syck library. It is quite straight-forward, no fancy stuff for now, but it should work

Supported datatypes:

associative arrays
indexed arrays
strings
integers
floats
booleans
null

Objects are simply ignored now, though I am planning to add support for them later. See TODO for details.

Example, to give you idea:

$data . . . → Read More: YAML: Syck for PHP is not read-only anymore
