Hi Michael,

 

Good question!

 

{Point x:1 y:1. Point x:2 y:2.}

 

It’s not obvious!  Notice the periods after the end of each element.

 

All the best,

 

Ron Teitelbaum

Subject: [Newbies] How does one create an array of points?

 

I've been trying to create an array of points (in Squeak 5) but am failing badly. See below: first part => what I get when I exec "print it" on the first part. Guidance please.

 

#(1@1 2@2) => #(1 #@ 1 2 #@ 2)

 

#((Point x: 1 y: 1) (Point x: 2 y: 2)) =>  #(#(#Point #x: 1 #y: 1) #(#Point #x: 2 #y: 2))

 

#(12 'b' $c) => #(12 'b' $c)

 

#(12 'b' $c 1@1) => #(12 'b' $c 1 #@ 1)

 

#(12 'b' $c (1@1)) => #(12 'b' $c #(1 #@ 1))

 

#(12 'b' $c (Point x: 1 y: 1)) => #(12 'b' $c #(#Point #x: 1 #y: 1))

 

Point x:1 y: 1 =>  1@1

 

(Point x:1 y: 1) => 1@1

 

#((Point x: 1 y: 1)) => #(#(#Point #x: 1 #y: 1))

 

#(1@1) => #(1 #@ 1)
