Implement return prioritization #1786: superseeded

Now, as to how that's done at the low level, and whether the way it's done is a good way to do it, well, I can't help. Suffice to say, the main place to look for how this is handled at the low-level is MoarVM. I dug around for a couple minutes and have a link to a commit from nearly a decade ago. Does that help?

For a class the default representation is P6Opaque. This is one of a few dozen stock representations that Raku requires compiler backends implement as standard. See, for example, the 46 .c/.h pairs of C89 source files in the relevant MoarVM directory. A quick glance at the names of the source code files should paint a broad picture. A look at their code will fill in some details.

I'm hoping someone who knows C89 can take a quick gander at the C89 code implementing 47 representations in here and comment on it.

This is (yet another) very un(der)documented Raku feature (over a decade after it was introduced!), but one can browse what looks to me like reasonably clean and commented C89 code implementing 47 representations in the relevant MoarVM directory.

MoarVM's representation is very cool https://github.com/MoarVM/MoarVM/blob/master/docs/strings.asciidoc

GitHub, as one of the leading web-based Git repository hosting service, provides a powerful suite of CI/CD tools in the form of GitHub Actions. These are directly integrated into the platform which empowers developers to increase the speed, efficiency and reliability of delivering products. In this brief article, we will take a look at what CI/CD is, why we should use it, as well as some of its applications in my projects.

GitHub Actions is a modern CI/CD tool integrated natively on GitHub. Itenables the rapid automation of build, test, deployment, and other custom workflows on GitHub with no need for external tools.

GitHub Actions is GitHub's CI/CD solution. You can use it to run automated tasks each time you change your code. Although the platform lacks a built-in Kubernetes integration, third-party plugins such as Azure's Deploy to Kubernetes Cluster action can automate deployments and manage different rollout strategies.

GitHub Actions is a feature-rich CI/CD platform embedded within GitHub, enabling developers to automate, customize, and execute software development workflows directly in their repositories. An Action inside GitHub Actions is a discrete unit of automation that performs a specific task within a workflow. All the Actions are reusable, and there are many to choose from. You can even create your own reusable ones.

The real power of using PHP code-quality tools is when it’s added to your continuous integration process, which means it automatically checks the code every time someone makes a push or pull request to your project repo. In this section, we'll be looking at how to do just that. GitHub actions is available for free so we'll use it for demo purposes. Note that there are some limits to private repos, so set your test repo to public if you can.

You can even automate the running of this script — hence the directory name automation — to happen every time the data changes, using GitHub Actions.

You might remember that I’ve been taking an interest in GitHub Actions for the last year or so (I even wrote a book on the subject). And at the Perl Conference in Toronto last summer I gave a talk called “GitHub Actions for Perl Development” (here are the slides and the video).
