# Documentation for `cl-losh`
This library is my own personal utility belt.
Everything I write in here is MIT/X11 licensed, so you're free to use it if
you want. But I make no guarantees about backwards compatibility -- I might
change and break things at any time. Use this at your own risk.
[TOC]
## Package `LOSH`
This package exports all of the symbols in the other packages.
If you just want to get everything you can `:use` this one and be done with
it. Otherwise you can `:use` only the ones you need.
## Package `LOSH.ARRAYS`
Utilities related to arrays.
### `DO-ARRAY` (macro)
(DO-ARRAY (VALUE ARRAY)
&BODY
BODY)
Perform `body` once for each element in `array` using `value` for the place.
`array` can be multidimensional.
`value` will be `symbol-macrolet`ed to the appropriate `aref`, so you can use
it as a place if you want.
Returns the array.
Example:
(let ((arr (vector 1 2 3)))
(do-array (x arr)
(setf x (1+ x))))
=> #(2 3 4)
### `FILL-MULTIDIMENSIONAL-ARRAY` (function)
(FILL-MULTIDIMENSIONAL-ARRAY ARRAY ITEM)
Fill `array` with `item`.
Unlike `fill`, this works on multidimensional arrays. It won't cons on SBCL,
but it may in other implementations.
### `FILL-MULTIDIMENSIONAL-ARRAY-FIXNUM` (function)
(FILL-MULTIDIMENSIONAL-ARRAY-FIXNUM ARRAY ITEM)
Fill `array` (which must be of type `(array FIXNUM *)`) with `item`.
Unlike `fill`, this works on multidimensional arrays. It won't cons on SBCL,
but it may in other implementations.
### `FILL-MULTIDIMENSIONAL-ARRAY-SINGLE-FLOAT` (function)
(FILL-MULTIDIMENSIONAL-ARRAY-SINGLE-FLOAT ARRAY ITEM)
Fill `array` (which must be of type `(array SINGLE-FLOAT *)`) with `item`.
Unlike `fill`, this works on multidimensional arrays. It won't cons on SBCL,
but it may in other implementations.
### `FILL-MULTIDIMENSIONAL-ARRAY-T` (function)
(FILL-MULTIDIMENSIONAL-ARRAY-T ARRAY ITEM)
Fill `array` (which must be of type `(array T *)`) with `item`.
Unlike `fill`, this works on multidimensional arrays. It won't cons on SBCL,
but it may in other implementations.
## Package `LOSH.BITS`
Utilities for low-level bit stuff.
### `+/16` (function)
(+/16 X Y)
Perform 16-bit signed addition of `x` and `y`.
Returns two values: the result and a boolean specifying whether
underflow/overflow occurred.
### `+/32` (function)
(+/32 X Y)
Perform 32-bit signed addition of `x` and `y`.
Returns two values: the result and a boolean specifying whether
underflow/overflow occurred.
### `+/64` (function)
(+/64 X Y)
Perform 64-bit signed addition of `x` and `y`.
Returns two values: the result and a boolean specifying whether
underflow/overflow occurred.
### `+/8` (function)
(+/8 X Y)
Perform 8-bit signed addition of `x` and `y`.
Returns two values: the result and a boolean specifying whether
underflow/overflow occurred.
### `-/16` (function)
(-/16 X Y)
Perform 16-bit signed subtraction of `x` and `y`.
Returns two values: the result and a boolean specifying whether
underflow/overflow occurred.
### `-/32` (function)
(-/32 X Y)
Perform 32-bit signed subtraction of `x` and `y`.
Returns two values: the result and a boolean specifying whether
underflow/overflow occurred.
### `-/64` (function)
(-/64 X Y)
Perform 64-bit signed subtraction of `x` and `y`.
Returns two values: the result and a boolean specifying whether
underflow/overflow occurred.
### `-/8` (function)
(-/8 X Y)
Perform 8-bit signed subtraction of `x` and `y`.
Returns two values: the result and a boolean specifying whether
underflow/overflow occurred.
## Package `LOSH.CHILI-DOGS`
Gotta go FAST.
### `DEFUN-INLINE` (macro)
(DEFUN-INLINE NAME
&BODY
BODY)
Like `defun`, but declaims `name` to be `inline`.
### `DEFUN-INLINEABLE` (macro)
(DEFUN-INLINEABLE NAME
&BODY
BODY)
Like `defun-inline`, but declaims `name` to be `notinline` afterword.
This is useful when you don't want to inline a function everywhere, but *do*
want to have the ability to inline it on demand with (declare (inline ...)).
## Package `LOSH.CONTROL-FLOW`
Utilities for managing control flow.
### `GATHERING` (macro)
(GATHERING
&BODY
BODY)
Run `body` to gather some things and return them.
`body` will be executed with the symbol `gather` bound to a function of one
argument. Once `body` has finished, a list of everything `gather` was called
on will be returned.
It's handy for pulling results out of code that executes procedurally and
doesn't return anything, like `maphash` or Alexandria's `map-permutations`.
The `gather` function can be passed to other functions, but should not be
retained once the `gathering` form has returned (it would be useless to do so
anyway).
Examples:
(gathering
(dotimes (i 5)
(gather i))
=>
(0 1 2 3 4)
(gathering
(mapc #'gather '(1 2 3))
(mapc #'gather '(a b)))
=>
(1 2 3 a b)
### `IF-FOUND` (macro)
(IF-FOUND VAR LOOKUP-EXPR THEN ELSE)
Perform `then` or `else` depending on the results of `lookup-expr`.
`lookup-expr` should be an expression that returns two values, the first being
the result and the second indicating whether the lookup was successful. The
standard `gethash` is an example of a function that behaves like this.
If the lookup was successful, `then` will be executed with `var` bound to the
result, and its value returned.
Otherwise `else` will be executed and returned, without any extra bindings.
Example:
(multiple-value-bind (val found) (gethash :foo hash)
(if found
'yes
'no))
; becomes
(if-found val (gethash :foo hash)
'yes
'no)
### `MULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND*` (macro)
(MULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND* BINDINGS
&BODY
BODY)
Bind each pair in `bindings` with `multiple-value-bind` sequentially.
Example:
(multiple-value-bind*
(((a b) (values 0 1))
((c) (values (1+ b)))
(list a b c))
; =>
; (0 1 2)
From https://github.com/phoe/m-m-v-b
### `RECURSIVELY` (macro)
(RECURSIVELY BINDINGS
&BODY
BODY)
Execute `body` recursively, like Clojure's `loop`/`recur`.
`bindings` should contain a list of symbols and (optional) starting values.
In `body` the symbol `recur` will be bound to the function for recurring.
This macro doesn't perform an explicit tail-recursion check like Clojure's
`loop`. You know what you're doing, right?
Example:
(defun length (some-list)
(recursively ((list some-list)
(n 0))
(if (null list)
n
(recur (cdr list) (1+ n)))))
### `WHEN-FOUND` (macro)
(WHEN-FOUND VAR
LOOKUP-EXPR
&BODY
BODY)
Perform `body` with `var` bound to the result of `lookup-expr`, when valid.
`lookup-expr` should be an expression that returns two values, the first being
the result (which will be bound to `var`) and the second indicating whether
the lookup was successful. The standard `gethash` is an example of a function
that behaves like this.
If the lookup was successful, `body` will be executed and its value returned.
Example:
(multiple-value-bind (val found) (gethash :foo hash)
(when found
body))
; becomes
(when-found val (gethash :foo hash)
body)
### `WHEN-LET*` (macro)
(WHEN-LET* BINDING-FORMS
&BODY
BODY)
Bind the forms in `binding-forms` in order, short-circuiting on `nil`.
This is like Clojure's `when-let`. It takes a list of binding and binds them
like `let*`, but if any of the expressions evaluate to `nil` the process stops
there and `nil` is immediately returned.
Examples:
(when-let* ((a (progn (print :a) 1))
(b (progn (print :b) 2))
(c (progn (print :c) 3)))
(list a b c))
; =>
:A
:B
:C
(1 2 3)
(when-let* ((a (progn (print :a) 1))
(b (progn (print :b) nil))
(c (progn (print :c) 3)))
(list a b c))
; =>
:A
:B
NIL
## Package `LOSH.DEBUGGING`
Utilities for figuring out what the hell is going on.
### `AESTHETIC-STRING` (function)
(AESTHETIC-STRING THING)
Return the string used to represent `thing` when printing aesthetically.
### `BITS` (function)
(BITS N SIZE &OPTIONAL (STREAM T))
Print the bits of the `size`-bit two's complement integer `n` to `stream`.
Examples:
(bits 5 10)
=> 0000000101
(bits -5 10)
=> 1111111011
### `COMMENT` (macro)
(COMMENT
&BODY
BODY)
Do nothing with a bunch of forms.
Handy for block-commenting multiple expressions.
### `DIS` (macro)
(DIS
&BODY
BODY)
Disassemble the code generated for a `lambda` with `arglist` and `body`.
It will also spew compiler notes so you can see why the garbage box isn't
doing what you think it should be doing.
### `PR` (function)
(PR &REST ARGS)
Print `args` readably, separated by spaces and followed by a newline.
Returns the first argument, so you can just wrap it around a form without
interfering with the rest of the program.
This is what `print` should have been.
### `PRINT-HASH-TABLE` (function)
(PRINT-HASH-TABLE HASH-TABLE &OPTIONAL (STREAM T))
Print a pretty representation of `hash-table` to `stream.`
### `PRINT-TABLE` (function)
(PRINT-TABLE ROWS)
Print `rows` as a nicely-formatted table.
Each row should have the same number of colums.
Columns will be justified properly to fit the longest item in each one.
Example:
(print-table '((1 :red something)
(2 :green more)))
=>
1 | RED | SOMETHING
2 | GREEN | MORE
### `PRL` (macro)
(PRL &REST ARGS)
Print `args` labeled and readably.
Each argument form will be printed, then evaluated and the result printed.
One final newline will be printed after everything.
Returns the last result.
Examples:
(let ((i 1)
(l (list 1 2 3)))
(prl i (second l)))
; =>
i 1
(second l) 2
### `SHUT-UP` (macro)
(SHUT-UP
&BODY
BODY)
Run `body` with stdout and stderr redirected to the void.
### `START-PROFILING` (function)
(START-PROFILING &OPTIONAL CALL-COUNT-PACKAGES)
Start profiling performance. SBCL only.
`call-count-packages` should be a list of package designators. Functions in
these packages will have their call counts recorded via
`sb-sprof::profile-call-counts`.
### `STOP-PROFILING` (function)
(STOP-PROFILING &OPTIONAL (FILENAME lisp.prof))
Stop profiling performance and dump a report to `filename`. SBCL only.
### `STRUCTURAL-STRING` (function)
(STRUCTURAL-STRING THING)
Return the string used to represent `thing` when printing structurally.
## Package `LOSH.ELDRITCH-HORRORS`
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.
### `DEFINE-WITH-MACRO` (macro)
(DEFINE-WITH-MACRO TYPE-AND-OPTIONS &REST SLOTS)
Define a with-`type` macro for the given `type` and `slots`.
This new macro wraps `with-accessors` so you don't have to type `type-`
a billion times.
The given `type` must be a symbol naming a struct or class. It must have the
appropriate accessors with names exactly of the form `type`-`slot`.
The defined macro will look something like this:
(define-with-macro foo a b)
=>
(defmacro with-foo ((foo &optional (a-symbol 'a) (b-symbol 'b))
&body body)
`(with-accessors ((,a-symbol foo-a) (,b-symbol foo-b))
,foo
,@body))
There's a lot of magic here, but it cuts down on boilerplate for simple things
quite a lot.
Example:
(defstruct foo x y)
(define-with-macro foo x y)
(defparameter *f* (make-foo :x 10 :y 20))
(defparameter *g* (make-foo :x 555 :y 999))
(with-foo (*f*)
(with-foo (*g* gx gy)
(print (list x y gx gy))))
=>
(10 20 555 999)
### `DLAMBDA` (macro)
(DLAMBDA &REST CLAUSES)
## Package `LOSH.FUNCTIONS`
Utilities for working with higher-order functions.
### `FIXED-POINT` (function)
(FIXED-POINT FUNCTION DATA &KEY (TEST 'EQL) (LIMIT NIL))
Find a fixed point of `function`, starting with `data`.
Successive runs of `function` will be compared with `test`. Once `test`
returns true the last result will be returned.
`limit` can be an integer to limit the maximum number of iterations performed.
A second value is also returned: `t` if a fixed point was found or `nil` if
the iteration limit was reached.
### `JUXT` (function)
(JUXT &REST FUNCTIONS)
Return a function that will juxtapose the results of `functions`.
This is like Clojure's `juxt`. Given functions `(f0 f1 ... fn)`, this will
return a new function which, when called with some arguments, will return
`(list (f0 ...args...) (f1 ...args...) ... (fn ...args...))`.
Example:
(funcall (juxt #'list #'+ #'- #'*) 1 2)
=> ((1 2) 3 -1 2)
### `NULLARY` (function)
(NULLARY FUNCTION &OPTIONAL RESULT)
Return a new function that acts as a nullary-patched version of `function`.
The new function will return `result` when called with zero arguments, and
delegate to `function` otherwise.
Examples:
(max 1 10 2) ; => 10
(max) ; => invalid number of arguments
(funcall (nullary #'max)) ; => nil
(funcall (nullary #'max 0)) ; => 0
(funcall (nullary #'max 0) 1 10 2) ; => 10
(reduce #'max nil) ; => invalid number of arguments
(reduce (nullary #'max) nil) ; => nil
(reduce (nullary #'max :empty) nil) ; => :empty
(reduce (nullary #'max) '(1 10 2)) ; => 10
## Package `LOSH.GNUPLOT`

### `GNUPLOT` (function)
(GNUPLOT DATA &REST ARGS &KEY (X #'CAR) (Y #'CDR) &ALLOW-OTHER-KEYS)
Plot `data` to `filename` with gnuplot.

You shouldn't call this function directly — it's exposed just so you can see
the list of possible gnuplot arguments all in one place.
### `GNUPLOT-EXPR` (macro)
(GNUPLOT-EXPR EXPR &REST ARGS)
Plot `expr` (an expression involving `x`) with gnuplot.
See the docstring of `gnuplot-args` for other keyword arguments.

### `PRINT-LICENSES` (function)
(PRINT-LICENSES QUICKLISP-PROJECT-DESIGNATOR)
Print the licenses used by the given project and its dependencies.

want to do this in a separate Lisp image if you don't want to clutter your
current one.
If the project does not specify its license in its ASDF system definition it
will be listed as 'Unspecified'. You should manually figure out what license
it uses (and maybe send a pull request).

### `NORM` (function)
(NORM MIN MAX VAL)
Normalize `val` to a number between `0` and `1` (maybe).

outside the 0/1 range.
### `PRECISE-LERP` (function)
(PRECISE-LERP FROM TO N)
Lerp together `from` and `to` by factor `n`, precisely.
Vanilla lerp does not guarantee `(lerp from to 0.0)` will return exactly
`from` due to floating-point errors. This version will return exactly `from`
when given a `n` of `0.0`, at the cost of an extra multiplication.
### `RADIANS` (function)
(RADIANS DEGREES)
Convert `degrees` into radians.
The result will be the same type as `tau` and `pi`.

(RANDOM-AROUND VALUE SPREAD)
Return a random number within `spread` of `value`.
### `RANDOM-ELT` (function)
(RANDOM-ELT SEQ)
Return a random element of `seq`, and whether one was available.
This will NOT be efficient for lists.
Examples:
(random-elt #(1 2 3))
=> 1
T
(random-elt nil)
=> nil
nil
### `RANDOM-GAUSSIAN` (function)
(RANDOM-GAUSSIAN &OPTIONAL (MEAN 0.0) (STANDARD-DEVIATION 1.0))
Return a random float from a gaussian distribution. NOT THREAD-SAFE (yet)!
### `RANDOM-GAUSSIAN-INTEGER` (function)
(RANDOM-GAUSSIAN-INTEGER &OPTIONAL (MEAN 0) (STANDARD-DEVIATION 1))
Return a random integer from a gaussian distribution. NOT THREAD-SAFE (yet)!
### `RANDOM-RANGE` (function)
(RANDOM-RANGE MIN MAX)
Return a random number in [`min`, `max`).
### `RANDOM-RANGE-EXCLUSIVE` (function)
(RANDOM-RANGE-EXCLUSIVE MIN MAX)
Return a random number in (`min`, `max`).
### `RANDOM-RANGE-INCLUSIVE` (function)
(RANDOM-RANGE-INCLUSIVE MIN MAX)
Return a random number in [`min`, `max`].
### `RANDOMP` (function)
(RANDOMP &OPTIONAL (CHANCE 0.5))
Return a random boolean with `chance` probability of `t`.
## Package `LOSH.SEQUENCES`
Utilities for operating on sequences.
### `DROP` (function)
(DROP N SEQ)
Return a fresh copy of the `seq` without the first `n` elements.
The result will be of the same type as `seq`.
If `seq` is shorter than `n` an empty sequence will be returned.
Example:
(drop 2 '(a b c))
=> (c)
(drop 4 #(1))
=> #()
From Serapeum.
### `FREQUENCIES` (function)
(FREQUENCIES SEQUENCE &KEY (TEST 'EQL))
Return a hash table containing the frequencies of the items in `sequence`.
Uses `test` for the `:test` of the hash table.
Example:
(frequencies '(foo foo bar))
=> {foo 2
bar 1}
### `GROUP-BY` (function)
(GROUP-BY FUNCTION SEQUENCE &KEY (TEST #'EQL) (KEY #'IDENTITY))
Return a hash table of the elements of `sequence` grouped by `function`.
This function groups the elements of `sequence` into buckets. The bucket for
an element is determined by calling `function` on it.
The result is a hash table (with test `test`) whose keys are the bucket
identifiers and whose values are lists of the elements in each bucket. The
order of these lists is unspecified.
If `key` is given it will be called on each element before passing it to
`function` to produce the bucket identifier. This does not effect what is
stored in the lists.
Examples:
(defparameter *items* '((1 foo) (1 bar) (2 cats) (3 cats)))
(group-by #'first *items*)
; => { 1 ((1 foo) (1 bar))
; 2 ((2 cats))
; 3 ((3 cats)) }
(group-by #'second *items*)
; => { foo ((1 foo))
; bar ((1 bar))
; cats ((2 cats) (3 cats)) }
(group-by #'evenp *items* :key #'first)
; => { t ((2 cats))
; nil ((1 foo) (1 bar) (3 cats)) }
### `PREFIX-SUMS` (function)
(PREFIX-SUMS SEQUENCE)
Return a list of the prefix sums of the numbers in `sequence`.
Example:
(prefix-sums '(10 10 10 0 1))
=> (10 20 30 30 31)
### `PROPORTIONS` (function)
(PROPORTIONS SEQUENCE &KEY (TEST 'EQL) (FLOAT T))
Return a hash table containing the proportions of the items in `sequence`.
Uses `test` for the `:test` of the hash table.
If `float` is `t` the hash table values will be coerced to floats, otherwise
they will be left as rationals.
Example:
(proportions '(foo foo bar))
=> {foo 0.66666
bar 0.33333}
(proportions '(foo foo bar) :float nil)
=> {foo 2/3
bar 1/3}
### `TAKE` (function)
(TAKE N SEQ)
Return a fresh sequence of the first `n` elements of `seq`.
The result will be of the same type as `seq`.
If `seq` is shorter than `n` a shorter result will be returned.
Example:
(take 2 '(a b c))
=> (a b)
(take 4 #(1))
=> #(1)
From Serapeum.
## Package `LOSH.WEIGHTLISTS`
A simple data structure for choosing random items with weighted probabilities.
### `MAKE-WEIGHTLIST` (function)
(MAKE-WEIGHTLIST ITEMS WEIGHTS)
Make a weightlist of the given items and weights.
Weights can be any `real` numbers. Weights of zero are fine, as long as at
least one of the weights is nonzero (otherwise there's nothing to choose).
### `WEIGHTLIST` (struct)
Slots: `WEIGHTS`, `SUMS`, `ITEMS`, `TOTAL`
### `WEIGHTLIST-ITEMS` (function)
(WEIGHTLIST-ITEMS VALUE INSTANCE)
### `WEIGHTLIST-RANDOM` (function)
(WEIGHTLIST-RANDOM WEIGHTLIST)
Return a random item from the weightlist, taking the weights into account.
### `WEIGHTLIST-WEIGHTS` (function)
(WEIGHTLIST-WEIGHTS VALUE INSTANCE)
