Learning Smalltalk

First of all, this is not a blog which will teach you Smalltalk, rather it is an online notepad of my attempts to learn the language. Look upon this blog as a list of sudden insights and moments of overcoming stupidity!

Characters != String

I am sure it makes perfect sense but...

The fact that:
$a = 'a'
returns false is a bit unhelpful. Still, worth noting for the future. Also

$a = ('a' at:1)
returns true.
