What Hacker News says

It turns out the docs [1] try to explain how it works: > The method finder will take the input objects (receiver and arguments) and perform their permutation to be able to find more results. Then, it will lookup in the receiver's hierarchy the approved and forbidden methods to run on the hierarchy and run them on the permutation of objects. which sounds like an exhaustive search. I dug a little further and found this [2] which points to the actual implementation in the `MethodFinder` class. I don't know enough Smalltalk to decipher it :( [1] https://github.com/pharo-open-documentation/pharo-wiki/issue... [2] https://csharp.developreference.com/article/18692966/How+doe...
