Subject: Re: How to interator over two arrays?

Here are a couple hacks:

def dotproduct(a,b)
  (0..a.length-1).inject(0) {|s,i| s + a[i]*b[i]}
end

or perhaps:

require 'generator'
def dotproduct(a,b)
  SyncEnumerator.new(a,b).inject(0) {|s,(i,j)| s+i*j}
end

There's no type checking here, etc.  User beware.
I've also found that using 'generator' can be pretty slow sometimes.

I'll watch for better responses too.
