This is a curiosity question that will hopefully help me understand the Squeak *system* better.
I have an Aida application in which I find myself doing a lot of list manipulation, and given the reputation Smalltalk has for the strength of it's collection classes, I felt sure I would find a method SOMEWHERE that exchanged two elements. So...am I just no good at finding what I'm looking for (swap, exchange, move?), or is it because it is so simple to write something like exchange: index1 and: index2 |temp| temp := self at: index1. self at: index1 put: (self at: index2). self at: index2 put: temp. that no one would even think of needing to include such behavior? Again, just wondering so I can "measure" my understanding of how little I know and better gauge whether I think I can find an answer from the system itself... Of course, the answer is probably "why don't you just..." along with a single line...! Thanks, Rob
