It could be handy to have some gotchas explicitly listed under "gotchas for C programmers" (or Java or PHP or whatever language to which you're accustomed) for all the ways in which Ruby can differ subtlely (or not so subtlely in some cases.) However that doesn't really fit the layout of your current slides. If they were categorised that way, I'd list single- vs double-quotes under C-style gotchas (they're bog standard in perl and bash, but 'ab' is a 16-bit integer in C). Otherwise, all round, cool presentation. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
