Python can be nicer than that:
integer_array = [1, -2, 3, -4, 5, -6, -7, 8, -9, 32727000]
for index, value in enumerate(integer_array):
print "integer [%d] = %d" % (index, value)
So can Smalltalk! :-)
integerArray := #(1 -2 3 -4 5 -6 -7 8 -9 32727000 9876543210).
On my Computer which is a 32-bit, my C compiler is able to handle Integer
size 4 bytes = 32 bits. So 2 exponent 32 less 1 is 2147483647. This is
the max
that my computer can handle. Can't handle your number 9876543210.
With C on 64-bit your number will not be a problem as an integer. C integer
is size 8 bytes = 64 bits. So 2 exponent 64 less 1 can be handled.
Is your computer 64-bit or does smalltalk handles wider size integers ?
integerArray doWithIndex: [:element :index|
Transcript show: 'integer [', index printString, '] = ', element
printString; cr]
(can you other guys handle the big number I added at the end OK?)
Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
All the best,
Bruce
