Re: [Newbies] Quinto Game Example Code Not Working

I'm working through the Squeak by Example book and ran into a snag. The code on page 33 for the Quinto game is returning an error message. I have the SBECell selected and "-- all --" is highlighted in the right pane, just like in the book, but it responds with the message "Unknown variable: initialize please correct or cancel: / declare temp / declare instance / cancel".

Sounds like a typo in your code. Maybe there is something wrong with your cut and paste (unicode and tabs drove me crazy in other languages - not in squeak so far).

Select all in your initialize method with command-a, backspace, rewrite it from scratch. The tutorial should be okay, i did it twice with some newbies.
