How can I convert a string such as '2007-01-31 12:22:26' to a Time
Re: [QUIZ] Word Search (#107)
Hi, nice quiz ... Not too time intensive ;-) On Dec 29, 2006, at 5:06 PM, Ruby Quiz wrote: > Today's quiz would've been most useful in elementary school, where =20 > over half of > the homework assignments were word search puzzles.

It allows for snaking, see "test_snake", and also for matches that =20 leave the field on one side and comes back on another, e.g. YRUB. See =20= test_overflow. > * An option to give a hint, i.e., "The word ruby traverses the = bottom > left and bottom right quadrants." nah. > * Decide what to do with accented letters.

Funny enough, my Sudoku solution took less lines than this one ... Cheers, Mariano =EF=BF=BC=EF=BF=BC=
