[self-interest] pie-chart tutorial [1 Attachment]

[Russell Allen]

Hi Stephen, 

You can see if mapBy: is a defined method name by selecting it and right
clicking and choosing 'implementers' 

Also, when your code pops up the error, you should be able to expand the
stack on the error's outliner, and play around with it. My guess is that
'data copy' is returning nil, or some other object which doesn't
understand mapBy: You should be able to get an outliner of it and see
for yourself what object it is. 

Try clicking things which are raised like buttons, or small triangles
which look like they might expand and see how you go :)
