Hello,
I am trying to learn about squeak and writing a method to compute
factorial using a loop. Here's my code
===========
fact
"an alternative to factorial method"
| answer end |
answer := 1.
end := self.
1 to: end do:
[:index | answer := answer * index.
Transcript show: (answer printString), ' ', (index printString); cr. ]
============
The output looks fine, but when I call this method all that gets
returned is the original value sent. Please help me clear this hurdle.
