[Cuis-dev] Array evalStrings

[Todd Blanchard]

Really?  I thought explicit checking for class types was an anti pattern.  

The fact that this was a problem demonstrates that it is brittle.

Seems a test for isString would be more future proof.

Similar for Array, why would OrderedCollection not be acceptable?

It prompts for a number of cells and a resolution window size but fails when trying to read the x value from a point. The problem is the Array>>evalStrings doesn’t understand the UnicodeString passed into it.
