Subject: Re: Programming Ruby For Newbies

I am currently reading Peter Cooper's "Beginning Ruby From Novice to
Professional" from appres. It has been a very funny experience and I have
enjoyed so far, with good examples and simple programming projects that tie
all together and help me make perfect sense of Ruby's ways. Check this book
at http://www.rubyinside.com/my-book-beginning-ruby-published-today-437.html


Hope it helps.

My personal dream book is "Learn to Pragmatically Program Ruby for
Rails, Head First (with Foxes)" by Chris Pine, Dave Thomas, David
Black, Kathy Sierra and _why the lucky stiff, but I doubt that will
ever get written (-;
