It is much like a zen study, where you methodically concentrate on many tiny little pebbles, one at a time, moving them in the sand, to just the right place. According to the latest code coverage statistics, we are now at "72% code coverage":http://tapir2.ro.vutbr.cz/cover/latest-c_cover/src-extend_vtable-c.html, which is an increase of about 8% since my last report. ... read more |

I estimated that it would take about two weeks to get it to 50% and then another two weeks to get to 95%, but this was a bit optimistic.

I have added extensive examples of Parrot function and type signatures, as well beginning to increase test coverage of this subsystem.
