Complete the Code Be sure to tweet us with hashtag #CompleteTheCode if you know the answer! Compiler Error Unlike many languages, Smalltalk has no if statement, let alone other control structures. Control flow is instead implemented as methods sent to objects. Like Objective-C, Smalltalk makes use of argument labels on each of a methods arguments, but does not wrap every method call in square brackets. Only six "keywords" are reserved in Smalltalk: true, false, nil, self, super, and thisContext, which are called pseudo-variables in the language. Like many languages in the 80s, Smalltalk uses the dot character to access properties, the semicolon to delineate statements, and curly brackets to denote blocks.
