[Pharo-project] Return values of methods

Aug. 19, 2009


      Dear List,

Consider the following method:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
AClass>>aMethod
	^ self compute
		ifTrue: [ #aSelector ]
		ifFalse: [ false ]
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
I read somewhere that having a method that may return different type  
of values is not of a good style. I first through it was in Kent's  
book, but I cannot find it.
Is there a book that talk about this coding style?

Cheers,
Alexandre
