Thanks Werner, I will check later with the VW image too but I've integrated your fix. I've splitted the tests to their own package. The repository is world writable so feel free to add future improvements.

Hi HernÃ¡n, i had a superficial look at DHBNumerical and it does indeed what i wanted to do, thanks again. i ran DHB-Numerical-Tests and it showed 5 errors.i added this method: DhbNevilleInterpolator>>initialize super initialize. leftErrors :=#(). rightErrors :=#() and the tests showed only 1 error. i havent looked, what the code does, it was only an instinctive fix, hence use with caution. the last error is not fixable in this instinctive way, one would have to understand how DhbClusterFinder actually finds clusters, and i have not yet looked at the doku and dont have the time at the moment. werner

Pharocasts: GUI with Polymorph

by laurent laffont

Develop a contact manager desktop application. You will learn: - how Pharo helps the "Program by intention" style of programming - how to create basic persistency of created Contact object - how to compose a GUI, basic widgets, events and layout http://www.pharocasts.com/2011/02/pharo-gui-with-polymorph.html <http://www.pharocasts.com/2011/02/pharo-gui-with-polymorph.html> Laurent Laffont - @lolgzs <http://twitter.com/#!/lolgzs> Pharo Smalltalk Screencasts: http://www.pharocasts.com/ Blog: http://magaloma.blogspot.com/

Hi HernÃ¡n i wasn't aware of this, it is interesting indeed. thanks werner > Have you tried the DhbMatrix at http://www.squeaksource.com/DHBNumerical.html ?

long time ago I guess there was a class Array2D which could work as a matrix. Now I do not remember if it was replaced or rewritten.

Matrix

by Werner Kassens

Hi, i use Pharo-1.1-11411 and got a few questions. i looked at the comments of Matrix: it talks about Array2D but this object does not exist? it says "Element-wise matrix arithmetic works", but this is not true: while + - * functions in this way: aNumber + aMatrix, "/" does not always function: aSmallInteger / aMatrix produces an error, because aMatrix is tested with isZero. a simple fix would be to change the first program line in SmallInteger>>/ from: aNumber isZero ifTrue: [^(ZeroDivide dividend: self) signal]. to: (aNumber isNumber and: [aNumber isZero]) ifTrue: [^(ZeroDivide dividend: self) signal]. further aMatrix + aNumber and similar arithmetic dont work. but with the above fix it would work nicely with simple implementations like this: Collection>>/ / aNumber ^aNumber adaptToCollection: self andSend: #/ and so forth. while testing these things with Fractions, i noticed this: printing {3/4} produces this output:{(3/4)}. printing {{0.75}} produces this output:#(#(0.75)). printing {{3/4}} produces this output:{((Array new: 1) at: 1 put: (3/4); yourself)}. i wonder what the last output wants to tell me? does it want to tell me, that the last thing uses up a lot more memory than the first two, and accessing it takes more time, so that i should use the second thing instead, or is it (more or less) just print output related? werner
