Hi,

=20

i'm a roob noob and I'm trying to grasp procs/blocks/etc. =20

=20

specifically, I'd like to pass a piece of code into a method.

the piece of code will contain a variable name and an assignment

=20

e.g.

=20

####################

def lamb_test =20

    cond =3D 'hello'

    yield

    puts cond + ' ' + name

  end

lamb_test {name =3D 'bob'}

###################

=20

When I do this, I get the following error:

"undefined local variable or method `name' for main:Object...

=20

is it possible to define a local variable like this on the fly with
blocks?

obviously, this is an oversimplified case but I want to be able to
dynamically insert a local variable and an assignment to that variable
into the "generic" function lamb_test

Is there a better way?

=20

TIA!
