Sorry, I don't have a collection of them. Try simple things like
3. 4. 12
to see
3 * 4 --> 12
3 lcm: 4 --> 12
or
'text'. 'TEXT'
to see
'text asUppercase --> 'TEXT'
Typing the arguments and the result doesn't always find what you are looking
for, because sometimes there is no one single methd that does what you want. I
can't think of a concrete example right now.
More frequently, I enter a method name fragment to find all method names that
match. For example, when I want to find methods that return information about
instance variables, I type
instance
in the top pane. That returns a lot of methods.
