Hi!

I have stumbled on:

Float immediateSubclass: #SmallFloat64
  instanceVariableNames: ''
  classVariableNames: ''
  package: 'Kernel-Numbers’


Float variableWordSubclass: #BoxedFloat64
  instanceVariableNames: ''
  classVariableNames: ''
  package: 'Kernel-Numbers’


What are immediate subclass and word variable?

Re: [Pharo-users] What are immediate subclass and word variable subclass?

Makes sense. Thanks!

Re: [Pharo-users] What are immediate subclass and word variable subclass?

Immediate means it's stored in the OOP itself, like SmallInteger in 32 bits.
Variable word is like variable byte (ByteArray) I suppose, variable size,
with indices instead of named instance variables, but each index points to
a full word (I guess either 32 or 64bit depending on the VM)
