There are rails-related questions that are Ruby questions, but not all that many. Lemme give you an example. Say you know C. I quote this code: normalize(&r.start); and ask you if you can explain why that's "r.start" rather than "r.end". What are your chances? Hint: Roughly zero. Because that's actually a question about a particular program, rather than a question abuot the language. -s -- Copyright 2010, all wrongs reversed.
