Subject: Re: Polymorphic Code

Seems I have to clear things a bit up, as I got the feeling I'm 
misunderstood.
I don't say ruby doesn't have X or Y or so. I say asking "How do I do 
<Pattern A known from language X> in <language Y>" is the wrong 
approach.
That way you end up asking (contrieved example ahead) how to do a for 
loop in ruby and in turn iterate over e.g. an array using some odd 
construct intended to simulate a for loop which doesn't exist 1:1 in 
ruby instead of just using the way nicer each.
Instead IMHO you should ask "How do I solve problem X?"
As in "how do I iterate over an array?"

I'm hope I'm clearer this time.
Regards
Stefan
