I've come across an implementation of #asInteger and #asSignedInteger in
Pharo 3.0 that leaves me scratching my head.
Can anyone explain why it was defined to answer what it does for strings
that one would really not expect to parse as a number.
'abc-123-xyz-897' asSignedInteger
===> -123
To my mind, the method that does this for the example string should have an
intention revealing name like #spelunkIntegerFromString or some such.
Thanks,
Richard
