good! you liked the idea :-) I have a semantic problem with "Better small polymorphic classes than a large ugly one". I understand that objects are polimorphic, not clases. I think we should say something about smalltalk meta-circular property and something about that everythings is an object... For example:
* We don't fear metaprogramming because it brings dinamism to live * We love objects because objects are everything and everything is an object or something like that :-) On Tue, Aug 24, 2010 at 6:51 AM, Stéphane Ducasse <[email protected] > wrote: > Since some of you are newcomers to smalltalk or may be did not know the > value of pharo core people > here is a first draft I wrote this morning thinking about pharo > > http://code.google.com/p/pharo/wiki/PharoZen > > * Beauty in the code, beauty in the comments > * Simplicity is beautiful > * Communication is key > * Classes structure our vocabulary > * Messages are our vocabulary > * Polymorphism is our esperanto > * Better small polymorphic classes than a large ugly one > * Tests are important but can be replaced > * Abstraction and composition are our friends > * Explicit is better than implicit > * Magic only at the right place > * Simple processes to support progress > * One step at a time > * There is no unimportant fix > * Quality is a emerging property > * A system with robust abstractions that a single person can understand > > Stef > Please comment also on the wiki. > _______________________________________________ > Pharo-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-users > -- *Hernán Wilkinson Agile Software Development, Teaching & Coaching Mobile: +54 - 11 - 4470 - 7207 email: [email protected] site: http://www.10Pines.com <http://www.10pines.com/>*
