Would like to know if someone can recommend a site or book for someone
who has gone through a good tutorial(The Study Guide), and is looking
for a next step to provide easy programming challenges in Ruby.
Thanks for the help in advance. JSU

Hi JSU,

Ruby Quiz strikes me as ideal. Watch/search for posts in this group
with [QUIZ] in the subject, and check out http://rubyquiz.com/ for
past quizzes, including solutions.

Cheers,
Dave

On SPOJ, there's a lot of problems to practice on and it has support for
Ruby.

like to add a ref to James' book.

But, unfortunately, no way of seeing the submitted solutions. Of limited educational use.

Robert, please do not take offense that you are my pilot user for the
"automated being nice project"
Please kindly read http://pastie.org/509495
And please tell me how you feel being "thought" something in this way,
is it too lecturing?

Cheers
Robert

That's the only matter. There are some hints here:
Sphere Online Judge - Algorithmist and you can
expand it yourself because it's a wiki.

I perhaps should have quoted just the part about SPOJ, but I did amend the subject line to limit the reference

Other than that, did I find your post to be petty finger-wagging? Well yes, somewhat.

However, I will take your lesson to heart, in order to increase my "acceptation".

Cheers back at ya,

Bob Schaaf

Ok I have to change that, maybe a simple "please do not top post" is
indeed much better.
Anyway thank you for your kind feedback.

Yeah I see how I got that wrong, LOL

Cheers back at ya,

Thx Bob
