Ruby Koans – Day 1 Progress

Posted on June 5, 2018June 6, 2018 by christine
Reading Time: < 1 minute

Slow start at first, but I think I am picking up speed.  equals and == sucks, they mean the exact opposite that they do in Java.  Ruby, == is equivalence (.equals in Java), and use .equal? to check if the objects are the same (== in Java).  That’ll probably hang me up for a while.  This resource from ruby-lang helped out, it gave me a quick context to wrap my mind around.

11/282 Koans finished end of day

Haven’t figure out my first Ruby book to try, but I will probably be giving this Ruby in 20 Minutes tutorial a try, and Ruby Monk’s Primer a go too.
