with:do: on SequencableCollection checks that both collections have the same
size (it raises an Error if not).
with: otherCollection do: twoArgBlock
"Evaluate twoArgBlock with corresponding elements from this collection and
otherCollection."
otherCollection size = self size ifFalse: [self error: 'otherCollection
must be the same size'].
1 to: self size do:
[:index |
twoArgBlock value: (self at: index)
value: (otherCollection at: index)]
I think we should not do that:
1) it is slow
2) when the other is larger, is would work and just omit the rest
3) if it is smaller, you will get an error anyway
There are just three methods doing such a size check:
with:do:
with:collect:
reverseWith:do:
(the last one actually raises a SizeMismatch exception, it is the sole
user of that exception)
Is there a reason why this makes sense?
I added an issue with a slice to clean it up:
