Post #109,333 by tuberculosis 7/11/03 7:08:42 PM Reply	Or maybe (string copyWithout: $ ) This is sort of a fun little exercise actually - I don't think in Smalltalk enough. Smalltalk is dangerous. It is a drug. My advice to you would be don't try it; it could ruin your life. Once you take the time to learn it (to REALLY learn it) you will see that there is nothing out there (yet) to touch it. Of course, like all drugs, how dangerous it is depends on your character. It may be that once you've got to this stage you'll find it difficult (if not impossible) to "go back" to other languages and, if you are forced to, you might become an embittered character constantly muttering ascerbic comments under your breath. Who knows, you may even have to quit the software industry altogether because nothing else lives up to your new expectations. --AndyBower

And I'm not buying yours... - (Yendor) - (7) - July 11, 2003, 12:59:35 AM EDT

I'm saying that a Computer Science or MIS Grad Student - (gdaustin) - (6) - July 11, 2003, 08:28:00 AM EDT

This is not a friggin' function! - (Arkadiy) - (5) - July 11, 2003, 08:45:08 AM EDT

Yep, the guy doesn't understand null terminated strings. - (a6l6e6x) - (4) - July 13, 2003, 02:14:06 PM EDT

Is that like - (Ashton) - (3) - July 13, 2003, 08:51:38 PM EDT

ah - now I understand - (Simon_Jester) - July 11, 2003, 09:00:22 AM EDT

Exactly - (deSitter) - (3) - July 10, 2003, 08:59:35 PM EDT

This is not "pressure programming" - (Arkadiy) - (2) - July 11, 2003, 08:41:33 AM EDT

Yes, precisely - (deSitter) - (1) - July 11, 2003, 09:27:10 AM EDT

Insertion Sort - (gdaustin) - (1) - July 11, 2003, 12:00:29 AM EDT

Merge Sort is better - (tuberculosis) - July 11, 2003, 03:51:27 AM EDT

What a waste of time - (tuberculosis) - (2) - July 11, 2003, 03:37:19 AM EDT

I think qsort is a bad example. - (static) - (1) - July 11, 2003, 10:25:16 AM EDT

I can tell you what will happen - (Arkadiy) - (1) - July 11, 2003, 10:28:04 AM EDT

Please... I can't take this kind of stimulation! I got Disney tunes running all through my head at just the thought of it.
