I see and appreciate your effort really, but there is no reason to
hide NumericalMethods from the book announcement.
I do not know NumericalMethods. I vaguely recall that you were no happy
that serge wants to change the code
because it would not be in sync with the book. Now we can co-evolve them.
Every I do is open-source and freely accessible so position yourself and
join effort (I do not like SciSmalltalk as a name).
Now we have the possibility to make on nice library but you need to sync.
I am trying to avoid what the Python community did with NumPy and
SciPy which is a mess.
Ah you see you have to sync with Serge. I think that Serge was not aware
about that you publish the code in your repository.
Now we want to rename the acronym (because DHB is not good) and probably
improve the code
of the library while keeping the book in sync (like using String
streamContents for printing).
I personally hate to see all the comment with a copyright and a commit
dates.

This is 8 months that I push didier to release it. I spent my
week-end to edit it.
So when you talk about respect use your energy th right way.

Didier Besset offered his great book "Object-Oriented
Implementation of Numerical Methods
An Introduction with Smalltalk and Java" to the community.
We would like to thank Didier Besset for his great book and
for his gift of the source and implementation to the community.
This is indeed, great news.
You can find
• Archive of the original book, with code in both Java
and Smalltalk
https://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates/ArchiveOONumericalMethods
https://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates/ArchiveOONumericalMethods/blob/master/NumericalMethods/2015-Jan-WholeBookST-Java.pdf
• An abridged version of Didier’s book, without the Java
implementation and reference; our goal is to make the book
slimmer and easier to read. The implementation presented in
this book is part of the SciSmalltalk library.
The implementation presented in his book is part of the
NumericalMethods library.
You want to promote SciSmalltalk, then first respect others.
NumericalMethods could be part of SciSmalltalk, but it is the
library where code was originally released.
Cheers,
Hernán
