I feel these pieces of code aren't really explicit in what they do 5 + 'hello' 5 + (1 to: 10) 5 + (1@5) On Tue, Aug 24, 2010 at 5:42 PM, Guillermo Polito <guillermopolito@gmail.com

Well Collection and Point understand that message too.
One step at a time, but an issue entry now so we don't forget about it.

What we've been discussing with Guille is that sometimes the 'type checking' (or actually, the conversion) is done, and sometimes not.
For example:
5 + true
true does not understand 'adaptToNumber:andSend:', so no magic conversion is done, but strings understand that message so we get things like:
5 + 'foo' = 5
This should be consistent regardless the type of the parameter.
