Coding AI Experiments

Get the code

git clone http://github.com/timm/ezr

Make sure you select the right branch:

  % git branch -r
  origin/24Jun14
  origin/24feb28
  origin/24feb6
  origin/24may19
  origin/25may12
  origin/HEAD -> origin/main
  origin/Stable-EMSE-paper
  origin/main
  origin/sneak

You will told which BRANCh to go to use in lectures

 git checkout BRANCH

Once you get there, make sure the code runs

cd ezr/tests
make f=Numsym lua

This should print some help text.

Roll your own

Copy tests/Code.lua to tests/myCode.lua.

Edit that tile to do anything ant all with my code.

Run the code, add the output as a comment string at bottom of that code. Note, you may have to do tricky things with pathnames (e.g. adding “../”). The file tests/Makefile has a command test that handles that for lua:

 -include ../Makefile
 one?=Code
 
 lua: docs2lua $(one).lua
 	LUA_PATH='../src/?.lua;;' lua $(one).lua

With the code, the command

cd ezr/tests
make f=Numsym lua

will update all the tests/*.lua files (from any docs/[A-Z]*.md files), then runs lua on tests/Numsym.lua with a LUA_PATH that means lua can find ../src/*.lua files.

TODO What does the equivalent rule for Python look like? So code in /tests can read source Python files from /src. Hints:

• Read the Python manual
• If you want, don’t worrying about the docs/*.md to tests/*.lua thing. That’s a little tricky.

SUBMIT

• tests/Makefile
• a screenshot of your vscode-like environment where on the same screen is the code you are editing and a terminal showing the output from make f=Numsym lua.
