Online Documentation?

08:47 AM

Is there an online source that provides a brief description of each of the primitive methods?

Some of the method names are ambiguous when compared with other method names, and the differences in the behavior of the methods isn't always clear from the names.

For example, I haven't been able to figure out exactly what the differences are in the behavior of the pointAt method and the turnToFace method.

So far, the only thing that I have found in the way of Alice documentation consists of a few tutorials and some sample programs. Coming from a heavily Java background with a massive set of hyperlinked API documentation, I feel a little lost regarding Alice documentation.

Thanks,
