Hello Kasper Thanks for the feedback. I also like readable and  easy to understand code but I get the feeling that it;s good practice to use as minimal as possible if then's So I wonder if and how I can achieve that here.

I think the problem does not lend itself too much towards having “an object oriented solution”, as such. If you are looking for a one-liner using smalltalk libraries, you could do: ({10 -> 0. 5 -> 1. 1 -> 5. 0 -> 10} detect: [ :dist | dist key < distance ]) value but I really think your code is easier to read, which is what I appreciate the most.

I solved it like this : scoreX: anInteger y: anInteger2     | distance |     distance := (anInteger squared + anInteger2 squared) sqrt.     distance > 10         ifTrue: [ ^ 0 ].     distance > 5         ifTrue: [ ^ 1 ].     distance > 1         ifTrue: [ ^ 5 ].     ^ 10 but now I use three if then and I think it's ugly code. Is there a way I can make it more the smalltalk way ? Regards, Roelof
