Hi,

is this intentional behavior?

#(a b c) collect: [ :each | each -> each first asciiValue ] as: Dictionary. "a Dictionary(1->#a->97 2->#b->98 3->#c->99 )"

(#(a b c) collect: [ :each | each -> each first asciiValue ]) asDictionary. "a Dictionary(#a->97 #b->98 #c->99 )"

I would expect that collect:as: for Dictionaries would act in the same way as #asDictionary.

Yes, I would expect the same… asDictionary is fairly recent, though. Before that, any kind of conversion would have been fine. Marcus
