First two requirements complete. Time to start the 3rd! Write tests, not just to drive the code; but for safety in the future! Don't modify existing behavior when making a test pass. I really like the Elvis Operator [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elvis_operator] "I know…
MORE TDD FIZZBUZZ!!! Let's start the SECOND requirement... We may be going slightly slower than I've seen FizzBuzz done... Maybe... I can't think of any additional tests that will fail for the first requirement, since we have a general solution - We can move onto…

Something that's been brought up to me, repeatedly, is if I can show how I do things. My style of coding is something that isn't common. It's well recognized by experienced developers as something they used to great success in the past. It'…
OK - Take number 5? I think this is take number 5 at working with SmallTalk. I'm using Cincom VisualWorks [http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/main/products/visualworks/]. It was demo'd by [Carl Gundel] at a Seattle Software Crafter Meetup [https://www.meetup.com/seattle-software-craftsmanship/events/…
