As intended, yes. But not as expected from what digit usually means (any of the arabic figures of 1 through 9 and 0. [3<http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/digit> ]). I guess that'd change the behavior of too many things, but IMHO byteAt: would suit much better what this method does. 2011/5/2 Eliot Miranda <eliot.miranda@gmail.com>
digitAt: answers a byte in an integer and so is working as intended.

Hi, try to run the following:
(2 raisedTo: 100000) digitAt: 1
The expected result (if I understood what digitAt: should return) is 9, but the message returns 0 instead. In fact, it returns 0 for any index.
Is this a bug or am I missunderstanding how digitAt: should work?
