[Pharo-users] Workbook, exercises and problems

I'm trying to find examples and problems, exercises to solve in Pharo but it seems that it is little in that department. I come from Haskell, there we have 99 problems solved in Haskell and also, Project Euler. Also Python, Ruby and other have this. Is there a place where I can find more food?

Re: [Pharo-users] Workbook, exercises and problems

I would love to do that but: I have neither a good understanding of smalltalk not pharo. I don't have a good OO style - I come from a Functional paradigm- I'm not used to variables Of course I've been trying with some of them. But wanted to know it there was a way to check the answers. Not only

I solved many exercices in Project Euler a couple years ago. I'll see if I still remember my username and let you know! On Aug 25, 2014 5:48 PM, Sven Van Caekenberghe s...@stfx.eu wrote: Start with Pharo by Example (PBE), http://pharo.org/documentation Teaching/learning design/style is plain

Re: [Pharo-users] Workbook, exercises and problems

I am deeply in love with Smalltalk Best Practice and Patterns by Kent Beck. Its the best book I have read on programming , its clear, 100% practical, straight to the point without unnecessary theories , surprisingly small yet so large . I would recommend it to anyone not just introducing to Pharo

Re: [Pharo-users] Workbook, exercises and problems

That is indeed a very good book, a big step above a plain introduction. But the best book is actually Andrés Valloud's A mentoring course on Smalltalk - I can guarantee you it will blow your mind ;-) The cool thing about Pharo/Smalltalk is that once you get the basics (minimal syntax, new

Ignaciostarted to write the ST99 problems in the pfte but he stopped after a couple of them. https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/PharoForTheEnterprise/745/artifact/ The problem with little problems is that sometimes you can write them in a single method so there not really exciting. Now

Re: [Pharo-users] Workbook, exercises and problems

Stef, The project is not abandoned, it is still open to anyone. I simply stopped because it was supposed to be a collaborative effortand there was not even a single contribution beside you and me. But I'm available to work again if there are contributions to add. best reagards Nacho *Lic.
