Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

Hey, I've been updating the statistics and we've had a decline in scratch blocks! From 82 to 70. Tell me if I'm crazy or not.

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

Does anyone have a list of previously requested blocks?

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

I may have miscounted the blocks... A recount was probably a good idea really. I don't have a list of previously requested blocks, They were taken off of the requests page once done. I assume you're wondering if the number of requested blocks for users is correct? I'm almost certain it is!

You assumed right. In the future, I think a page with previously requested blocks would be handy for the librarians.

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

^^ I've made those already  tongue

Credit to rubiks_cube_guy238 for the following (my idea, he helped with coding self perform):

This is more for people to use in their own blocks than as a block itself:

Code:

('repeat call %s %n times' #- #do:times:)

do: t1 times: t2
self do: t1 times: t2 current: 0

do: t1 times: t2 current: t3
t2 = t3 ifTrue: [^self].
self perform: (t1 asSymbol).
self do: t1 times: t2 current: t3 + 1

Mainly a dev code:

Code:

('do action of call %s' #- #do:)

do: t1
self perform: (t1 asSymbol)

First, the second is image shack, LOL! Lemme look at it converting it to weebly. Hmm... the first one. The second one is well...  a little too big, I think it should look thinner like a book, not a dictionary  tongue .


If you are reading this, please read to the end, because if you don't you won't know what's at the end. Don't just skip to the end though otherwise you won't be able to read the middle, which is most important. Now you must be wondering why you just read all that, the reason is you may have not noticed something, read it again and see if you notice it this time  smile

Sparks, can you send me the pass for the weebly account? Are we still thinking on doing it?

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

I asked if Pecola if he wanted to share his webbly account since it's mostly used for this. Sci or sparks (I can't remember who) suggested that we make an account just for the block library.

No card is needed, though we do ask that you give credit to the creators of the blocks you take out, I didn't spend my time adding the names of each block's creator for nothing!

... And I was commenting on your joke with an equally pithy witticism of my own. I'm not joking about the credit though. Or the fact I was joking - I wasn't joking about that. Or that. Or that. Or that. Or that. Or that. Or that. Or that. Or that.

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

Do you think we should make it clearer that if a modification of Scratch uses blocks from the library we request that they credit the block's sharer?

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

Can blocks including the block inserter be added to the library? (like in BYOB.)

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

All blocks that can be made by anyone with a standard copy of Scratch, BYOB or Panther can be shared in the library!

Sparks. I suggested to my parents that I be allowed my own account (as I would upload other stuff, not just for the Library), but they haven't looked into it yet.  hmm

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

Instance: The statements assigned to a sprite that runs the statements.

In no-Squeak words, an instance is a script assigned to an object that runs the script.

For example, in Squeak, you could make a "String" saying "This is a test" and making statements that tell the object to do something.

Another meaning of Instance: The word "example" in UK English form.
