is " #^ " legal syntax?

by Udo Schneider

All, I just hit a case where I needed to return the caret character "^" as a Symbol. However simply doing something like method ^ #^. doesn't work. Even inspecting the symbol itself #^ inspect. doesn't work. "Quoting" the caret works fine: method ^ #'^'. So I'm wondering whether #^ (w/o) quoting is considered to be legal syntax and it's a parser "bug" or whether it's invalid by definition CU, Udo

Hi john I will start to finish the magritte tutorial for Magritte 3.0. I will send it to you and the pharo togo mailing-list. We should really get a cool app for TogoApp. What idea do you have in mind? With remi we were thinking about a - a mini meetic kind of application - a kind of application that people can fill up with their mobile and register restaurant (the minister would love this one :) Stef Le 26/9/15 16:05, ATTIOGBE Damessi Douwonou a Ã©crit : > Hello Stephane and All, > > I'm John student from TOGO!

Hi John, welcome to Pharo. Don't hesitate to tell us about your journey and ask questions here. Truly mastering a system as complex as Pharo takes a long time. Make sure you have lots of fun on the way! Stephan

Well minute 5:12 and 11:40 of the first video show explicitly sliders *and* scripting. But the piece of code is not plugged to the canvas, but to a particular object in the canvas (in this case to and slider). > Now the Dr.Geo script feature is really "/to add scripting behaviour > to a particular object which was previously drawn in the canvas/".

Scripting, in my finding, was related with any selected kind of object (two points, a line, etc) and made them behave accordingly to the script, so it was not to a particular selected object which can take or send messages to others in the same canvas (like in Geogebra, Etoys or Scratch). > It is likely you were looking for something different, although > re-reading your email I think I got your question right. > > Anyway, never mind. > Ok.

I share your commitment to the open mustang model, but The referenced Geogebra videos show parametrized sliders, I don't see scripting (i.e piece of code plugged in the canvas). Now the Dr.Geo script feature is really "/to add scripting behaviour to a particular object which was previously drawn in the canvas/". Did you really take a look to this Dr. Geo feature? It is likely you were looking for something different, although re-reading your email I think I got your question right. Anyway, never mind.

I share your commitment to the open mustang model, but my students don't. So they look for features like sriptable objects which were drawn on canvas first. Is a feature that could be useful on spreading the adoption of Dr Geo, so more people can enjoy the open mustang. I also share that that ideas are cheap and implementation is difficult and I know that this is a small community with solo projects (like mine) which has very powerful implementations like Dr. Geo. I hope to make a constructive comment on possible features, not any pressure or nonconstructive critique on Dr Geo development. Cheers and thanks for the last video.

Some news from the growing pharo teacher front

by stepharo

Hi guys I want to let you know that there will be a new pharo lecture in YaoundÃ©. I presented Pharo during a seminar and the previous minister of education was there and asked us to do a lecture. In June we did it with Damien C. by skype. And now there is an official lecture at YaoundÃ© given by Prof. Metalagia. This is an excellent news. I will give some lectures in december there. In Togo my first visit was quite successful: 120 participants to the conferences I gave (it was still vacation time there). There were 60 students following lectures from 8h to 17h during 4 days... Yes I'm exhausted ;) A new Pharo lecture will start in north Togo. I will go back in December. One of the idea is to help students to get good in Pharo and pharo web stack and build web apps and other. I hope that we can have within 2/3 year There is a competition AppTogo. People are learning C# and others. I hope that some students will compete with Pharo so I will be looking for potential mentors to help them. Giving them advices, pointing them to the right solution/framework and may be a bit of pair rogramming if skype works. I distributed the Pharo Starter Kit (we will announce it officially now that I have 10 gb space on my server) People love the Youtube videos folder I'm collecting. Yes internet is a pain there. Chloupis I put your great youtube tutorial! Thanks for it. some students watched it. Stef
