Re: [Pharo-users] 64 bit version

And in Windows land, long is 32 bits even for 64 bit apps... Even after you're done with the VM part, someone will have to go audit all the external interfaces and make sure they really follow the manual. On 4/1/14 21:24 , p...@highoctane.be wrote: How would that work? Would this be a 32 bit

Re: [Pharo-users] a basic hash question

The interval 1 to: (10 raisedTo: 100) can be created just fine, yet hashing its elements won't compute. A generous interpretation of the intent of #=, where any wisp of equivalence is promoted to full fledged equality, is problematic in the long run. Here's another one:

The relevant spec does not state 'long' is of any particular size. On 4/19/18 1:24 , Serge Stinckwich wrote: On Thu, Apr 19, 2018 at 9:13 AM, Serge Stinckwich > wrote: I try to understand differences between 32 bits and 64

Re: [Pharo-users] A mentoring course ComplexCondition implementation

For a different take, check out the '::' chain syntax in Cuis. It's not exactly the same as complex conditions, but it accomplishes some of the same goals. For example, [a], [b], [c] ifAllTrue: [z] becomes [a] :: and: [b] :: and: [c]

Re: [Pharo-users] how to model this a better way

Perhaps what's been unsaid in this thread is that sometimes exercises put some solution above all others (because it's presented as "the" answer). On the one hand, maybe the messages here make it seem like there's no single answer, as if the language was at fault. On the other hand, one
