Rather than focus on books, I advise you to focus on code. Start a small script. Have it do one thing well. Extend it slowly in an OOP fashion. Try to stay elegant and succint when possible. When you don't know how to solve something, ask others whether that is good. If they say it is bad, they say where to improve. Do this for a few months and you should be quite good in Ruby. The problem-solving domain of programming is unspecific to any particular language though. Also, if you can, always try to learn more about math. Higher math I almost forgot completely, we learned that in school. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
