I think I found another bug in the book. I am using the Safari version, and the code in the text doesn't match the screenshot. For example, the text says:
somePoints := OrderedCollection new.
500 timesRepeat: [��������somePoints add: {(50 atRandom - 25) . (50 atRandom - 25)}].
f := [ :x | (-2 * x) - 3 ].
"We use the Roassal Grapher engine to plot our points"
g := RTGrapher new.
d := RTData new.
d dotShape��������color: [ :p | (p second > (f value: p first))��ifTrue: [ Color red trans ]����������������������������������������ifFalse: [ Color blue trans ] ].
d points: somePoints.
d x: #first.
d y: #second.
g add: d.
g
""
The rendered code in the Safari version gets an error, whereas the screenshot version works:
f := [ :x | (-2 * x) - 3 ]. somePoints := OrderedCollection new. 500 timesRepeat: [ somePoints add: (( 50 atRandom - 25 ) @ ( 50 atRandom - 25 )) ]. g := RTGrapher new. d := RTData new. d dotShape color: [ :p | (p y > (f value: p x)) ifTrue: [ Color red trans ] ifFalse: [ Color blue trans ] ]. d points: somePoints. d x: #x. d y: #y. g add: d. g
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This may be part of the cause of my bug report on Git, e.g. there is a mismatch between the eBook version, the printed version and the Safari/OReilly version. It is Pharo 7.0.4, but I don't know if that matters in this case. I apologize for not following the procedure of cloning the github repository and creating bug request from there with pull requests, but I am still working out the configuration of Iceberg.
