Re: [Pharo-users] question on syntax "negate numbers"
but if you omit the space between - and 3 the old compiler understands it too, hence its just a convenience thing that cant lead to misunderstandings, or? btw opal also understands this: -3@2. --> (-3@2) i mean, its obvious nevertheless that "-" is not a method like negated, but part of a number and opal is just a bit more flexible with number formatting. werner On 11/08/2014 04:40 PM, Nicolai Hess wrote: Old compiler refuses to accept this code: - 4 @ -5 ^-- nothing more expected Opal compiler does just fine: - 4 @ -5 -> (-4@ -5) who is right?

Re: [Pharo-users] next sttep after the example tutorial
Roelof, I just want to say that I highly recommend that you read Kilon’s PBE chapters in the link that he includes in his mail. It will help you to get the basic knowledge that you need to be able to improve your Pharo knowledge. From your mails it seems to me that you still need to work on that, to get the fundamentals right (sorry if I am mistaken in that, I’m only human).

Re: [Pharo-users] About PBE status was Re: How not to serve an AngularJs application from Pharo
yeah i have left some things behind like linking through chapters some meta-tags to figures , small info here and there to speed up my documentation effort. I felt that it was better to focus on the content itself and porting as many chapters as possible than the technical details with the assumption that people eventually would come in to fill my gaps. Personally I felt at some point that it would be better if PBE was inside Pharo , it would make it much easier for example instead of displaying images to have a link that would open the pharo tool and see directly the tool itself instead of a screenshot. Also examples could open in workspace so the user could directly play on them. Still searching a way to do this :) On Sat, Nov 8, 2014 at 10:09 AM, stepharo wrote: > Hi kilon > > Thanks for continuing to push it.

Hi kilon Thanks for continuing to push it. I really want to see PharoByExample in Pharo30/40. I will read and compare with the orginal the UpdatePharoByExample and do a pass on the chapters you did. I saw that some references are not found. I will have a look. I should change the latex template to print in a better way >> because right now this is a bit ugly but a detail.

Re: [Pharo-users] next sttep after the example tutorial
ok that top tool up there is finder , if you open it the first option for searching will be "selectors" , selectors are methods, if you did not know this I advise to read PBE since you need to have this basic understanding to use Pharo. I have also began to port PBE to Pharo 3 because existing PBE is still for Pharo 1.4 , you can read it here --> http://kilon.gitbooks.io/pbe/ On Sat, Nov 8, 2014 at 9:38 AM, Roelof Wobben wrote: > Hello, > > Sorry I mean a method. > > Pharo version : 3.0 > OS : Windows 7 Home > Image release : 30860 > > screenshot : http://snag.gy/ISMs7.jpg > > Roelof > > kilon alios schreef op 7-11-2014 22:08: > > also whats a module ? > > On Fri, Nov 7, 2014 at 10:45 PM, Roelof Wobben wrote: > >> Thanks, >> >> I can see a choice finder but as far as I can see I cannot use it for >> modules. >> >> Roelof >> >> >> >> >> kilon alios schreef op 7-11-2014 21:21: >> >> start here >> >> http://pharo.org/documentation >> >> here a video tutorial series i created >> >> https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqbtQ7OkSta0ULYAd7Qdxof851ybh-_m_ >> >> you can skip first video "Why Pharo" the rest is practical tutorials. >> >> if you got Pharo 3 or 4 , finder should be in the tools section of >> world menu. >> >> On Fri, Nov 7, 2014 at 8:13 PM, Roelof Wobben wrote: >> >>> oke, are there books / tutorials I can do so I can understand better >>> how smalltalk works. >>> >>> I was thinking of making a calculator as my first project. >>> >>> Roelof >>> >>> >>> >>> kilon alios schreef op 7-11-2014 18:34: >>> >>> yes, read all the pharo documentation, read the entire pharo code, >>> understand the entire pharo code, make a few hundrend pharo application and >>> boom your are an expert :) >>> >>> Seriously though, do whatever is interesting to you and ask questions >>> here and in stackoverflow.
