damn. sometimes I really wish we had SortedSet back. and I mean the actually-performant version not the crappy version
<leftylink>
I know I know youre just going to tell me "just use a gem"
<leftylink>
well shit man sometimes the gem isn't available
<leftylink>
so what do you want me to do

matz rejected it, "Unlike the past, it's not smart to add the standard library. Use gem." https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/2348. so it looks like it will never happen. unless new information comes to light that makes it worth reconsidering
<leftylink>
huge shame. they think tsort is worth putting in standard library, but not sorted set
<leftylink>
well the other alternative when gems aren't available is of course "you write your own sorted set implementation"

if someone responds "but I don't want to implement my own because I like to stand on the shoulders of giants" then someone else will respond "so you don't want to implement your own because you are lazy and don't contribute to society"
<leftylink>
though there are practical considerations - it is not necessarily easy to make it fast. may want to use a C extension
<leftylink>
and then they say "I want it to be fast because I want to have a priority queue and performance is critical" and then people respond "joke's on you for using Ruby in a context when performance is critical" and they get laughed out of the room. I've seen this conversation dozens of times before and I'm tired of it

is there a convenient way to match an IP address with a regex? or do I just have to write it out like [[:digit:]]{1,3}\.etc?
<Rounin>
Even then, it would technically have to account for the number ranges... Then there's IPv6
wra1th has quit [Client Quit]
<Rounin>
I mean, the 200s only go up to 255... But then, 249 is allowed, but not 259
<henk>
Rounin: yeah, exactly why I’m asking (: what I wrote is ugly and not even correct but the correct version is even more ugly
<Rounin>
Yeah... It's not a typical regex problem
<henk>
oh, damn, XY problem, let me rephrase
<weaksauc_>
what are you trying to fdo
<Rounin>
It might be easier to just see if it can be parsed as an int, fit into an 8-bit unsigned number and perhaps check that it doesn't have leading zeroes (unless that's allowed)
<henk>
I have a string containing an IP address among other stuff. I want to extract the IP address from that string.
<Rounin>
Oh... So it might not have to be correct
<henk>
don’t care whether with a regex or not. it’s most likely IPv4
<henk>
and I’m not verifying some untrusted input but working with the output of some program. which may or may not actually return output containing an IP and it’s ok if my ruby program just fails and exits if it cannot find an IP in the output.
<Rounin>
It would also allow invalid ones like 0.299.275.1, but still
<henk>
weaksauc_: if everything goes well, yes
<henk>
but if not, then something else will fail already, so let’s just assume that it is (:
<weaksauc_>
nothing easily separated like a field seperator?
<henk>
I know I can just match on /IP \[0\]: '(.*)'/ because the IP is in between the '' but I’m wondering if there is a more reliable way that actually tries to get the IP. because I’m also not sure whether that other program might just output »IP [0]: ''« in case of problems …
<henk>
in this case, it doesn’t matter much, but generally I like safety. so if it doesn’t mean much hassle, I’d like to go the safer route …
<weaksauc_>
i wonder if there is anything in stdlib to parse ips
<henk>
yeah, that’s exactly my point: it’s very ugly. if I were to use this, I’d put it in an object that stands alone, ideally in shame, in some corner of my code. I certainly don’t want to put this monster right in the middle of some line :D
<henk>
IPAddr.new does not accept a string containing any other stuff but an IP address, it seems … that’s the only thing I found so far that sounded at least a little promising
<weaksauc_>
yeah could use that
<weaksauc_>
use a simple regex and catch errors
