Description

One of the examples from http://groovy.codehaus.org/JN0025-Starting is incorrect.

def x= ['a', 'b', 'c'] as Integer[] //convert each item in list to an Integer
assert x[0] == 97 && x[1] == 98 && x[2] == 99 //access each element individually

It causes java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "a"
