Next in the series ’same Kata, different language’ I wanted to post my very own Kata in Scheme.
Currently I am learning Scheme. Due to my lack of knowledge in Scheme I could not write the tests (nor code) for the negative numbers part of the string calculator. I would have loved to get there, but [...]

Watching the same [...]

No Katacast this week
By Corey Haines in UncategorizedDue to time constraints, we won’t be having a katacast this week. It takes a long time to prepare one of these, and, unfortunately, the past couple weeks have seen some unfortunate things come up to take attention.

String Calculator
By Corey Haines in KatasRoy Osherove and Gil Zilberfeld of TypeMock talked about the katacast series on their podcast, ‘This Week in Testing,’ and called me out to do Roy’s standard TDD practice, String Calculator. There are a few screencasts of this kata in C# linked from his page, which are well-worth watching. It is always interesting seeing the [...]
