I wonder if it's related to the memory address:
fun int almostrandom() { int a => int b; return b; }
while(true) { <<< almostrandom() >>>; 100::ms => now; }
always prints the same number...
while(true) { almostrandom() => int d; <<< d >>>; 100::ms => now; }
does also...
does "int a" return a memory address or something?
I don't know what's going on inside ChucK, but it does look like the uninitialized values for integers are memory addresses, maybe pointers onto the stack? They do grow as I'd expect for that hypothesis... fun int almostrandom() { int a => int b; return b; } fun void recurse(int times) { <<< almostrandom() >>>; if(times > 0) recurse(times - 1); } recurse(10); Ooh, ooh, points for anyone who uses this bug to implement resource pooling by memory usage! -- Tom Lieber http://AllTom.com/
