alice-teacher A simpler example of my parameter bug

[Don Slater]

We will soon have a release of Alice 2.2 that takes care of this problem. This is a known issue that was added in a previous release. If you go to the Alice Downloads page, to the previous releases section, and older version does not seem to have this problem.

Our apologies,

Don Slater

The value of the parameter is mangled into the value 1.0. I created a program this morning which (I believe) illustrates this exact phenomenon.
