Once a student has gotten used to recipes and ingredients using the
staged 'next-ingredient' approach there's no reason to avoid
conventional function headers. As an added bonus we can now:
a) check that all 'reply' instructions in a recipe are consistent
b) deduce what to reply without needing to say so everytime
c) start thinking about type parameters for recipes (generic functions!)

At the lowest level I'm reluctantly starting to see the need for errors
that stop the program in its tracks. Only way to avoid memory corruption
and security issues. But beyond that core I still want to be as lenient
as possible at higher levels of abstraction.

Always show recipe name where error occurred. But don't show internal
'interactive' name for sandboxes, that's just confusing.
What started out as warnings are now ossifying into errors that halt all
execution. Is this how things went with C and Unix as well?

Front-loads it a bit more than I'd like, but the payoff is that other
recipes will now be able to describe the type checks right next to their
operation.
I'm also introducing a new use of /raw with literals to indicate unsafe
typecasts.

Turns out the default format for printing floating point numbers is
neither 'scientific' nor 'fixed' even though those are the only two
options offered. Reading the C++ standard I found out that the default
(modulo locale changes) is basically the same as the printf "%g" format.
And "%g" is basically the shorter of:
a) %f with trailing zeros trimmed
b) %e
So we'll just do %f and trim trailing zeros.

Finally terminate the experiment of keeping debug prints around. I'm
also going to give up on maintaining counts.
What we really need is two kinds of tracing:
a) For tests, just the domain-specific facts, organized by labels.
b) For debugging, just transient dumps to stdout.
b) only works if stdout is clean by default.
Hmm, I think this means 'stash' should be the transient kind of trace.

Should be a little bit more mnemonic.

First step to reducing typing burden. Next step: inferring types.
|
|
|
|

Also standardized warnings.

More verbose, but it saves trouble when debugging; there's never
something you thought should be traced but just never came out the other
end.
Also got rid of fatal errors entirely. Everything's a warning now, and
code after a warning isn't guaranteed to run.

Things I figured out:
- 'row' in render-screen doesn't perfectly track cursor-row in screen
- proximal cause was forgetting to add left:number to stop-printing
- trying to print to screen outside bounds was silently succeeding and
corrupting simulated memory
- if we silently ignore prints outside bounds things are fine
But why are prints outside screen bounds working? We should be accessing
screen data using 'index', and that's checking its bounds.

But still no difference in either memory footprint or in running time.
This will teach me -- for the umpteenth time -- to optimize before
measuring.

Let's see how much this helps edit.mu.
