From: Krekna Mektek Date: 2006-05-25T22:41:55+09:00 Subject: Equivalent of collections in Java Hi list, I am reading the "from concepts to code" book from Jacquie Barker, but this book uses Java as the language to learn OO programming. This doesn't bother me at all although I'm learning Ruby, but sometimes I don't know if it is in Ruby and what it's called in Ruby. I am now reading about the concept of Collections, that is Collection objects, in Java, but I can't find something about it in my Pickaxe book. Does someone know the equivalent in Ruby? Also another tiny question: I read in the Pickaxe book : Integer(gets), how doest this work? I thought Integer is an object type and not a method which can indeed be called with an argument, like method(argument) ? Thanx again, Krekna
