I am deeply in love with "Smalltalk Best Practice and Patterns" by Kent Beck. Its the best book I have read on programming , its clear, 100% practical, straight to the point without unnecessary theories , surprisingly small yet so large . I would recommend it to anyone not just introducing to Pharo , but any programming language out there , OO or not. Some of the concepts should also feel familiar for a functional programmer like you. http://www.amazon.com/Smalltalk-Best-Practice-Patterns-Kent/dp/013476904X/r… I have not used it only to learn OO but also as a source of inspiration for my projects since it actually a pandora box of cool ideas :) On Mon, Aug 25, 2014 at 5:56 PM, Ichiseki <is076(a)outlook.com> wrote: > @Sebastian & Sven > I've already read and did PBE.

I solved many exercices in Project Euler a couple years ago. I'll see if I still remember my username and let you know!

Start with Pharo by Example (PBE), http://pharo.org/documentation Teaching/learning design/style is plain hard and takes times.

Well, there is a good way to start with Pharo by Example. http://pharobyexample.org/versions/PBE1-2009-10-28.pdf 2014-08-25 16:40 GMT+02:00 Ichiseki <is076(a)outlook.com>: > I would love to do that but: > I have neither a good understanding of smalltalk not pharo.

I would love to do that but: I have neither a good understanding of smalltalk not pharo. I don't have a good OO style - I come from a Functional paradigm- I'm not used to variables Of course I've been trying with some of them. But wanted to know it there was a way to check the answers. Not only if they are correct, also if they are in a good OO/Pharo/ST style. thanks Ichiro -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Workbook-exercises-and-problems-tp4774634p4774642.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

It would be even better if you wrote about it and shared the results with the rest of the community. If you have questions, shoot. Sven

Why not solve those same problems in Pharo? 2014-08-25 16:26 GMT+02:00 Ichiseki <is076(a)outlook.com>: > I'm trying to find examples and problems, exercises to solve in Pharo but > it > seems that it is little in that department. > I come from Haskell, there we have 99 problems solved in Haskell and also, > Project Euler. > Also Python, Ruby ....and other have this. > Is there a place where I can find more food? > Thankyou > > Ichiro > > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://forum.world.st/Workbook-exercises-and-problems-tp4774634.html > Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > >
