Re: [Pharo-project] String>>beginsWith: with empty strings issue

I'm not sure, but in ANSI, indexOfSubcollection:startingAt: is defined as returning 0 (no match) for an empty collection.

If a string can not contain the empty string, then how can (and does) it start/end with it? IMHO, to be consistent, the set of what I contain should be a strict superset of what I begin/end with. In that regards, according to the ansi-standard, returning false is correct. Cheers, Henry
