self collect: aBlock as: Set
One more time, i found this very beatiful and useful extension to Collection protocol. And i am proud being a witness when this thing is born! :)
Yes, I remember saying I was not convinced some times ago... http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2008-June/129457.html Being able to change own opinion is a good thing !

Hi. I was needing something like the SQL select distinct, that doesn't take into account repeated objects. I didn't found anything useful in Collection, and thus, I have implemented this:
Collection >> collectDistinct: aBlock
collectDistinct: aBlock "Evaluate aBlock with each of the receiver's elements as the argument. Collect the resulting values into a Set, thus repeated objects will not be present. Answer the new collection."
| newSet | newSet := self species new asSet. self do: [:each | newSet add: (aBlock value: each)]. ^ newSet
Is there a better way ? Do you think it make sense to put this in Pharo ?
Cheers
Mariano
