Hi all!


Consider the following:


foo := [:a :b | a raisedTo: b].
bar := #raisedTo:.

foo value: 2 value: 3. "5"
bar value: 2 value: 3. "5"

foo numArgs. "2"
bar numArgs. "1"


How can I overcome this inconsistency?

In situations where a symbol acts as "evaluable", quaking like a block, it is confusing to get these different results

Does there already exist a unified protocol? Or am I doing something wrong in general when I need this?


Best,

Christoph
