 4zv4l | the only external library I use is dimscord | 21:15:09 |
| 4zv4l | but yeah it's ok | 21:15:14 |
 caravaggio | am i the only one that finds nim exercism challenges bad? | 21:15:16 |
 Elegantbeef | -d:ssl says otherwise | 21:15:19 |
| Elegantbeef | I think they can be bad depending if you solve them idiomatically | 21:15:53 |
| 4zv4l | yeah right I didn't see it that way xD | 21:24:42 |
 Dudugz | I made a simple file to compile and test my binaries :v so i just debug run or debug build or debug for both. More practical than going to each one's directory, compiling with -d:ssl and then going back to the binaries directory and running each one | 21:34:37 |
 Gumbercules | bad in what way? | 21:58:07 |
| caravaggio | I've done quite a few exercism stuff, for some reasons the nim ones don't have instructions | 22:03:51 |
| caravaggio | I like playing on exercism when am on a pc without a compiler and just turned off the nim track | 22:04:20 |
| caravaggio | Most have step by step instructions | 22:04:29 |
| Elegantbeef | What's the fun in that | 22:04:37 |
| caravaggio | The nim ones I did. Felt like vague hints on what I needed to do | 22:05:08 |
| caravaggio | I guess I was just looking for structure | 22:09:12 |
| caravaggio | I dont want the answers handed to me ofc no learning in that | 22:09:43 |
| caravaggio | But small step by step hints that lead in the right direction would be useful, no? | 22:10:08 |

|  Raynei486 changed their display name from Raynei486 to Raynei486#3955. | 22:27:34 |

| Raynei486 | If there was a function in sdl2/image.nim that is not exported in sdl2.nim, how do I access it? | 22:27:44 |
| Elegantbeef | import std2/image | 22:27:58 |
| Raynei486 | I tried importing sdl2/image but it still can't find the proc | 22:28:02 |
| Elegantbeef | Is the proc exported in image? | 22:28:16 |
| Raynei486 | yeah
proc load*(file: cstring): SurfacePtr {.importc: "IMG_Load".}
| 22:28:46 |
| Elegantbeef | Then it should be accesible when you do import std2/image | 22:29:11 |
| Raynei486 | okay it somehow magically resolved itself when I aliased it as import sdl2/image as image | 22:33:13 |
| Raynei486 | I guess it didn't know what I was referring to | 22:33:15 |
 geekrelief#4078 | I used exercism to start learning Nim. It got my feet wet and see alternate implementations was educational. Beyond that, I think you'll learn more finding a goal and hacking towards it while reading the manual and api docs. | 22:33:22 |
