From: Chuck Taylor Date: 2010-04-11T09:31:39+09:00 Subject: question about pickaxe code example in chapter 12 of pickaxe in the tutthreads_10.rb example there is a line threads.each(&:join) that appears to be doing what you would expect from the line threads.each {|t| t.join} I'm wondering if anyone could point me at a more general description of how this bit of code is doing something like turning a symbol into a code block? (this is totally a guess on my part) Thanks for any light that you can shed on the matter. -chuck -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
