I think it should be safe to assume yes.
Actually, my image gives '1049' for SmalltalkImage current osVersion.
(I'm not sure how to decipher this, as I am running 10.4.10 ...)
I'm running the Carbon VM - are you running the Unix one?

a matter of personal style.
I haven't read through the whole tutorial, but perhaps the exitSides:
method is defined elsewhere. In any case, I'd guess that you are
correct and it is trying to do an assignment, although it may also
need to do other things.

I not see that.
Heh, yes, of course, I feel that way all the time! :)

As others have said, of course the most important thing is to pick a
style that works well and use it consistently. I like Beck's style,
but as you have seen, there are other good ones in use.

Hi Jacob,
I'd be happy to share my Unix/OS X code if it would help - let me
know!
Benjamin Schroeder
thanks! i would greatly appreciate your code!
I'll clean it up a little and post it today (or maybe tomorrow - I'm

if you saw, but collections also respond to #atRandom
directly, so you could do

Hope this helps,
Benjamin Schroeder
