* Docs: Hy <-> Python interop fix#1061
I separated the existing text in two sections, with some additional
explanations and a link to Hy's `import`.
* added interop page
* simplified interop section in tutorial
* remove the TODO from interop section in tutorial
Because yay
* Corrections from @Kodiologist
I kept the part about mangling, but added a warning about its incompleteness. I
think it can be useful for somebody who just wants to use a Python module in his
code. Maybe it can be removed when the actual documentation for mangling is
written.
* Added myself to AUTHORS.
I'll do my best to be worthy of it. Thanks for this awesome project!
Unlike Python, Hy allows the programmer to intermingle positional and keyword arguments. This change removes an exception to that rule for method calls, in which the method callee always had to be the first thing after the method. Thus, `(.split :sep "o" "foo")` now compiles to `"foo".split(sep="o")` instead of `HyKeyword("sep").split("o", "foo")`.
It's not tested, and sure enough, a glance at the code suggests that `case` and `switch` will evaluate their first argument once for every clause, which is unlikely to be desirable. I say remove it, but if anybody wants to fix and test and re-add `case` (and change it to a square-bracket syntax like `cond`), be my guest.
I don't see why you'd put this in the standard library. I guess it could be useful for when you're maintaining a library and you want to change the name of a function or macro but keep the old name around for a while so people's code doesn't break immediately. But that's a pretty limited purpose.
* Add comp, constantly and complement
relates #1176
* Fix composition order in comp
* comp without parameters returns identity
* Doc edits for comp, complement, constantly
* Test that `(comp)` returns `identity` exactly
* Simplify the `reduce` call in `comp`
* updated version of comp
I have some macros for using pandas and NumPy that expect : to be a keyword instead of an ordinary symbol. These tests will ensure that we don't break this unless we want to.
