in Ruby added by admin, on 6/2/2008 intermediate type

Ruby is famous (infamous?) for its extremely flexible type system, and as a so-called “scripting language”, the core of this mechanism is a lack of type checking. This feature allows for some very concise expressions and a great deal of flexibility, but sometimes makes your code quite a bit harder to understand.

Ruby blocks gotchas
in Ruby added by admin, on 31/12/2007 blocks intermediate metaprogramming
