Subject: ANN: Teach yourself Ruby - the hard way!

A frequent question from Ruby newcomers is "Okay, I've read the
tutorials - now what?". To that end, I'm putting together a series of
tutorials, each of which leads the student step by step through the
construction of a complete ruby program. There are no answers and no
explanations provided - rather, each question is followed by a hint
containing relevant topics to be looked up in the Pickaxe, on Google,
etc.

The entry-level program is an arithmetic tutor; the reader is assumed
to have worked their way through Chris Pine's tutorial, and have a
copy of the docs handy. (Later programs will assume that the reader
has done the previous ones). Here's the first, tentative draft -
comments and suggestions welcomed.
