Wow - I hadn’t quite understood the implications here- can you explain that
2DArray reference a bit more?
I keep thinking slots are cool but haven’t quite spotted when to use them and
this seems like a compelling example that I haven’t quite grasped...

Hi Richard,
My example was about having a collection of bits. So, #do: and #select: do
continue to have the very same semantics.
The whole point is to save memory behind the scenes, while keeping the same API.
Consider a very large matrix of booleans. It would save memory to store
booleans as

Noury, when modelling something like this,
Thanks Julien. So, what I did experienced is because BooleanSlot is work in
progress.
To address my issue using slots, I guess collections should implement asBit
method (Sent by BooleanSlot).

Hello,
There is a work in progress prototype slot named BooleanSlot in the
Slot-Example package built-in the image.
I think this slot does what you want.
So, the answer is yes, it is possible to do that. But you will need to
fix todos left in BooleanSlot methods.

This idea can be generalized to other types of slots.
