B/lwt: ListWriter Template.
@Purpose: A flexible object-lister taking care of plurals, inventory information,
various formats and so on.
@-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@p Specification.
The list-writer is called by one of the following function calls:
(1) |WriteListOfMarkedObjects(style)|, where the set of objects listed is
understood to be exactly those with the |workflag2| attribute set, and
(-a) the |style| is a sum of |*_BIT| constants as defined in "Definitions.i6t".
(2) |WriteListFrom(obj, style, depth, noactivity, iterator)|, where only the
first two parameters are compulsory:
(-a) the set of objects listed begins with |obj|;
(-b) the |style| is a sum of |*_BIT| constants as defined in "Definitions.i6t";
(-c) the |depth| is the recursion depth within the list -- ordinarily 0, but
by supplying a higher value, we can simulate a sublist of another list;
(-d) |noactivity| is a flag which forces the list-writer to ignore the
"listing the contents of" activity (in cases where it would otherwise consult
this): by default this is |false|;
(-e) |iterator| is an iterator function which provides the objects in sequence.
|WriteListOfMarkedObjects| is simply a front-end which supplies suitable
parameters for |WriteListFrom|.
The iterator function is by default |ObjectTreeIterator|. This defines the
sequence of objects as being the children of the parent of |obj|, in object
tree sequence (that is: |child(parent(obj))| is first). Moreover, when using
|ObjectTreeIterator|, the "listing the contents of" activity is carried out,
unless |noactivity| is set.
We also provide the iterator function |MarkedListIterator|, which defines
the sequence of objects as being the list in the word array
|MarkedObjectArray| with length |MarkedObjectLength|. Here the "listing
the contents of" activity is never used, since the objects are not
necessarily the contents of any single thing. This of course is the
iterator used by |WriteListOfMarkedObjects(style)|: it works by filling
this array with all the objects having |workflag2| set.
The full specification for iterator functions is given below.
The list-writer automatically groups adjacent and indistinguishable terms
in the sequence into plurals, and carries out the "printing the plural
name" activity to handle these. Doing this alone would result in text such
as "You can see a cake, three coins, an onion, and two coins here",
where the five coins are mentioned in two clauses because they happen not
to be adjacent in the list. The list-writer therefore carries out the activity
"grouping together" to see if the user would like to tie certain objects
together into a single entry: what this does is to set suitable |list_together|
properties for the objects. NI has already given plural objects a similar
|list_together| property. The net effect is that any entries in the list with
a non-zero value of |list_together| must be adjacent to each other.
We could achieve that by sorting the list in order of |list_together| value,
but that would result in drastic movements, whereas we want to upset the
original ordering as little as possible. So instead we use a process called
{\it coalescing} the list. This is such that for every value $L\neq 0$
of |list_together|, every entry with that value is moved back in the list
to follow the first entry with that value. Thus if the original order is
$x_1, x_2, ..., x_N$ then $x_j$ still precedes $x_k$ in coalesced order
unless there exists $i<j<k$ such that $L(i) = L(k) \neq 0$ and $L(j)\neq L(i)$.
This is as stable as it can be while achieving the "interval" property
that non-zero $L$ values occur in contiguous runs.
We therefore obtain text such as "You can see a cake, five coins, the tiles
W, X, Y and Z from a Scrabble set, and an onion here." where the coins and
the Scrabble tiles have been coalesced together in the list.
It's important to note that the default |ObjectTreeIterator| has the
side-effect of actually reordering the object tree: it rearranges the children
being listed so that they appear in the tree in coalesced order. The
|MarkedListIterator| used by |WriteListOfMarkedObjects| has the same
side-effect if the marked objects all happen to share a common parent.
It might seem odd for a list-writer to have side effects at all, but the
idea is that occasional coalescing improves the quality of play in many
small ways -- for instance, the sequence of matches to TAKE ALL is tidier --
and that coalescing has a small speed cost, so we want to do it as little
as possible. (The latter was more of a consideration for I6: interpreters
are faster nowadays.)
This specification is somewhat stronger than that of the I6 library's
traditional list-writer, because
(i) it supports arbitrary lists of objects, not just children of specific
parents, while still allowing coalesced and grouped lists,
(ii) it can be used recursively in all cases,
(iii) it uses its own memory, rather than borrowing memory from the parser,
so that it can safely be used while the parser is working, and
(iv) it manages this memory more flexibly and without silently failing by
buffer overruns on unexpectedly large lists.
The I7 version of |WriteListFrom|, when using |ObjectTreeIterator|, differs
from the I6 version in that the object |o| is required to be the |child| of
its |parent|, that is, to be the eldest child. (So in effect it's a function
of parents, not children, but we retain the form for familiarity's sake.)
In practice this was invariably the way |WriteListFrom| was used even in
I6 days.
Finally, the |ISARE_BIT| is differently interpreted in I7: instead of printing
something like " are ducks and drakes", as it would have done in I6, the
initial space is now suppressed and we instead print "are ducks and drakes".
@p Memory.
The list-writer needs to dynamically allocate temporary array space of a known
size, in such a way that the array is effectively on the local stack frame:
if only either the Z-machine or Glulx supported a stack in memory, this would
be no problem, but they do not and we must therefore use the following.
The size of the stack is such that it can support a list which includes every
object and recurses in turn to most other objects: in practice, this never
happens. It would be nice to allocate more just in case, but the Z-machine is
desperately short of array memory.
@c
Constant REQUISITION_STACK_SIZE = 3*{-value:Data::Instances::count(K_object)};
Array requisition_stack --> REQUISITION_STACK_SIZE;
Global requisition_stack_pointer = 0;
[ RequisitionStack len top addr;
top = requisition_stack_pointer + len;
if (top > REQUISITION_STACK_SIZE) return false;
addr = requisition_stack + requisition_stack_pointer*WORDSIZE;
! print "Allocating ", addr, " at pointer ", requisition_stack_pointer, "^";
requisition_stack_pointer = top;
return addr;
];
[ FreeStack addr;
if (addr == 0) return;
requisition_stack_pointer = (addr - requisition_stack)/WORDSIZE;
];
@p WriteListOfMarkedObjects.
This routine will use the |MarkedListIterator|. That means it has to create
an array containing the object numbers of every object with the |workflag2|
attribute set, placing the address of this array in |MarkedObjectArray| and
the length in |MarkedObjectLength|. Note that we preserve any existing
marked list on the stack (using the assembly-language instructions |@push|
and |@pull|) for the duration of our use.
While the final order of this list will depend on what it looks like after
coalescing, the initial order is also important. If all of the objects have
a common parent in the object tree, then we coalesce those objects and
place the list in object tree order. But if not, we place the list in
object number order (which is essentially the order of traversal of the
initial state of the object tree: thus objects in Room A will all appear
before objects in Room B if A was created before B in the source text).

@p About Iterator Functions.
Suppose |Iter| is an iterator function and that we have a "raw list"
$x_1, x_2, ..., x_n$ of objects. Of these, the iterator function will
choose a sublist of "qualifying" objects. It is called with arguments
|Iter(obj, depth, L, function)|
where the |obj| is required to be $x_j$ for some $j$ and the function is one
of the |*_ITF| constants defined below:
(a) On |START_ITF|, we return $x_1$, or |nothing| if the list is empty.
(b) On |SEEK_ITF|, we return the smallest $k\geq j$ such that $x_k$ qualifies,
or |nothing| if none of $x_j, x_{j+1}, ..., x_n$ qualify.
(c) On |ADVANCE_ITF|, we return the smallest $k > j$ such that $x_k$ qualifies,
or |nothing| if none of $x_{j+1}, x_{j+2} ..., x_n$ qualify.
(d) On |COALESCE_ITF|, we coalesce the entire list (not merely the qualifying
entries) and return the new $x_1$, or |nothing| if the list is empty.
Thus, given any $x_i$, we can produce the sublist of qualifying entries by
performing |START_ITF| on $x_i$, then |SEEK_ITF|, to produce $q_1$; then
|ADVANCE_ITF| to produce $q_2$, and so on until |nothing| is returned, when
there are no more qualifying entries. |SEEK_ITF| and |ADVANCE_ITF| always
return qualifying objects, or |nothing|; but |START_ITF| and |COALESCE_ITF|
may return a non-qualifying object, since there's no reason why $x_1$ should
qualify in any ordering.
The iterator can make its own choice of which entries qualify, and of what
the raw list is; |depth| is supplied to help in that decision. But if |L|
is non-zero then the iterator is required to disqualify any entry whose
|list_together| value is not |L|.
@c
Constant SEEK_ITF = 0;
Constant ADVANCE_ITF = 1;
Constant COALESCE_ITF = 2;
Constant START_ITF = 3;
! Constant DBLW; ! Uncomment this to provide debugging information at run-time
@p Marked List Iterator.
Here the raw list is provided by the |MarkedObjectArray|, which is convenient
for coalescing, but not so helpful for translating the |obj| parameter into
the $i$ such that it is $x_i$. We simply search from the beginning to do
this, which combined with other code using the iterator makes for some
unnecessary $O(n^2)$ calculations. But it saves memory and nuisance, and the
iterator is used only with printing to the screen, which never needs to be
very rapid anyway (because the player can only read very slowly).
@c
[ MarkedListIterator obj depth required_lt function i;
if (obj == nothing) return nothing;
switch(function) {
START_ITF: return MarkedObjectArray-->0;

}
return nothing;
}
}

];
@p Coalesce Marked List.
The return value is the new first entry in the raw list.
@c
[ MarkedListCoalesce o i lt l swap m;
for (i=0: i<MarkedObjectLength: i++) {
lt = (MarkedObjectArray-->i).list_together;
if (lt ~= 0) {
! Find first object in list after contiguous run with this list_together value:
for (i++: (i<MarkedObjectLength) &&
(LT_Compare((MarkedObjectArray-->i).list_together, lt) == 0): i++) ;
! If the contiguous run extends to end of list, the list is now perfect:
if (i == MarkedObjectLength) return MarkedObjectArray-->0;
! And otherwise we look to see if any future entries belong in the earlier run:
for (l=i+1: l<MarkedObjectLength: l++)
if (LT_Compare((MarkedObjectArray-->l).list_together, lt) == 0) {
! Yes, they do: so we perform a rotation to insert it before element i:
swap = MarkedObjectArray-->l;
for (m=l: m>i: m--) MarkedObjectArray-->m = MarkedObjectArray-->(m-1);
MarkedObjectArray-->i = swap;
! And now the run is longer:
i++;
if (i == MarkedObjectLength) return MarkedObjectArray-->0;
}
i--;
}
}
return MarkedObjectArray-->0;
];
@p Object Tree Iterator.
Here the raw list is the list of all children of a given parent: since the
argument |obj| is required to be a member of the raw list, we can use
|parent(obj)| to find it. Now seeking and advancing are fast, but coalescing
is slower.
@c
Global list_filter_routine;
[ ObjectTreeIterator obj depth required_lt function;
if ((obj == nothing) || (parent(obj) == nothing)) return nothing;

if (function == ADVANCE_ITF) obj = sibling(obj);

Again, the return value is the new first entry in the raw list.

The default for the listing contents activity is to call this rule in its

an infinite regress. The activity is used only for the default

@p Partitioning.
Given qualifying objects $x_1, ..., x_j$, we partition them into classes of
the equivalence relation $x_i\sim x_j$ if and only
(i) they both have a |plural| property (not necessarily the same), and
(ii) neither will cause the list-maker to recurse downwards to show the
objects inside or on top of them, and
(iii) if they cause the list-maker to add information about whether they
are worn, lighted or open, then it will add the same information about both, and
(iv) they are considered identical by the parser, in that they respond to the
same syntaxes of name: so that it is impossible to find a TAKE X command such
that X matches one and not the other.
The equivalence classes are numbered consecutively upwards from 1 to $n$,
in order of first appearance in the list. For each object $x_i$,
|partition_classes->(i-1)| is the number of its equivalence class. For each
equivalence class number $c$, |partition_class_sizes->c| is the number of
objects in this class.

@p Grouping.
A "group" is a maximally-sized run of one or more adjacent partition
classes in the list whose first members have a common value of
|list_together| which is a routine or string, and which is not equal to
|lt_value|, the current grouping value. (As we see below, it's by setting
|lt_value| that we restrict attention to a particular group: if we reacted
to that as a |list_together| value here, then we would simply go around in
circles, and never be able to see the individual objects in the group.)
For instance, suppose we have objects with |list_together| values as follows,
where $R_1$ and $R_2$ are addresses of routines:
|coin| ($R_1$), |coin| ($R_1$), |box| ($R_2$), |statuette| (0), |coin| ($R_1$), |box| ($R_2$)
Then the partition is 1, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, so that the final output will be
something like "three coins, two boxes and a statuette" -- with three
grouped terms. Here each partition class is the only member in its group,
so the number of groups is the same as the number of classes. (The above
list is not coalesced, so the $R_1$ values, for instance, are not
contiguous: we need to work in general with non-coalesced lists because
not every iterator function will be able to coalesce fully.)
But if we have something like this:
|coin| ($R_1$), |Q| ($R_2$), |W| ($R_2$), |coin| ($R_1$), |statuette| (0), |E| ($R_2$), |R| ($R_2$)
then the partition is 1, 2, 3, 1, 4, 5, 6 and we have six classes in all.
But classes 2 and 3 are grouped together, as are classes 5 and 6, so we
end up with a list having just four groups: "two coins, the letters Q and
W from a Scrabble set, a statuette and the letters E and R from a Scrabble
set". (Again, this list has not been fully coalesced: if it had been, it
would be reordered |coin|, |coin|, |Q|, |W|, |E|, |R|, |statuette|, with
partition 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and three groups: "two coins, the letters Q,
W, E and R from a Scrabble set and a statuette".)
The reason we do not group together classes with a common non-zero
|list_together| which is {\it not} a routine or string is that low values
of |list_together| are used in coalescing the list into a pleasing order
(say, moving all of the key-like items together) but not in grouping: see
|list_together| in the {\it Inform Designer's Manual}, 4th edition.
We calculate the number of groups by starting with the number of classes
and then subtracting one each time two adjacent classes share |list_together|

@p Write Multiple Class Group.
The text of a single group which contains more than one partition class.
We carry out the "grouping together" activity, so that the user can add
text fore and aft -- this is how groups of objects such as "X, Y and Z"
can be fluffed up to "the letters X, Y and Z from a Scrabble set" --
but the default is simple: we print the grouped items by calling
|WriteListR| once again, but this time starting from X, and where
|lt_value| is set to the common |list_together| value of X, Y and Z.
(That restricts the list to just the objects in this group.) Because
|lt_value| is set to this value, the grouping code won't then group X, Y
and Z again, and they will instead be individual classes in the new
list -- so each will end up being sent, in turn, to |WriteSingleClassGroup|
below, and {\it that} is where they are printed.

@p Write Single Class Group.

@p Write After Entry.
Each entry can be followed by supplementary, usually parenthetical, information:
exactly what, depends on the style. The extreme case is when the style, and
the object, call for recursion to list the object-tree contents: this is
achieved by calling |WriteListR|, using the |ObjectTreeIterator| (whatever
the iterator used at the top level) and increasing the depth by 1.
