New version of Little Number Chapter
Hi guys I took into account the remarks of mariano and I imagine that the chapter improved. It can be obvious for some people but I like to make sure that we all find this obvious. Because it is not difficult once you spend a little time on it. Now if somebody wants to extend and improve, he/she welcome. I will continue to work on the others chapters. Stef A guy that truly believe that software is only done when the documentation is packed too.
What book is this? On Sun, Sep 11, 2011 at 2:21 AM, Stéphane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse@inria.fr

These chapters are drafts for the future book Pharo By Example 2. The first one is in: http://pharobyexample.org/ On Sun, Sep 11, 2011 at 1:07 PM, Larry White <ljw1001@gmail.com> wrote:

2r1101 returns 13 13 printStringBase: 2 returns '1101' Integer readFrom: '1101' base: 2 returns 13 maybe 'answers' instead of returns? since in smalltalk we're sending messages and getting answers :) On 11 September 2011 09:21, Stéphane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse@inria.fr> wrote:

Hi, this chapter is very interesting and understandable. The one question i have is of course - how do the other numbers work, the ones that are not âlittleâ ones. I donât know if you plan other chapters (they would be very welcome) or if you could add a distinction between the different kind of numbers in the introduction to this chapter? One tiny remark: âgenderâ on page 14 is not a very good example to encode in one bit. As everyone knows, there are as many genders as there are people :) Best regards, Helene. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/New-version-of-Little-Number-Chapter-tp3804761p3817764...

I do not know :) I would like to learn that and I would love if somebody would explain that to me :) Did you see the float chapter I wrote?
