Hello Andy,

you can find the code behind this in the instance classes of Object.

-> and => are both answering an Association with the sender as key and the argument as value.

Best regards

Betreff: [Newbies] What does the -> symbol mean?

I can't find it in my introductory books. The content was:

self entries add: aString -> aBlock

Is it a bit like the underscore character being the same as := ?

thanks
AB
