Subject: Re: Methods with lots of arguments

I would write this method like this:

def somemethod(foo, bar, baz, *options)
   quux = options[:quux] || nil # or another default value
   blargle = options[:blargle] || nil # or another default value
   ...
end

This method can be called as follows:
somemethod('a', 'b', 'c', :blargle => 'test')

But I don't this it's too hard to make a small helper class for this, to 
make this even more easy, there probably already exists one (but I 
wouldn't know).

Peter
