Yeah I agree this quiz has potential for both newbies and more experienced
Rubyists. I will certainly try my hand in it. But I have a rule about not
reading code or APIs for other projects similar to something I'm solving,
so as not to taint my own problem-solving and API design. So I probably
won't look at EasyPrompt until I've written up my quiz solution...
