A ruby course

Brian Schröder

10/4/2004 5:18:00 PM

Hello List,

again I ask for your help. I'm going to give a 16 hours course on ruby
this week, and I've created some slides to aid me with this.
I have to admit that some examples might not be as bright as I wish, and
also there are missing some exercises.
I created the slides in english, such that they can be used by a bigger
part of the community if need should be.

The slides will not cover all that I hope to say in the course, when the
slides have finished I will start with a free experimentation phase
based on my ants sample implementation
http://ruby.brian-schroede...

It would be great if some of you could look at the slides and correct
the language and if somebody comes up with a great example or exercise I
would also be glad for comments.

The slides are located at
http://ruby.brian-schroeder....

Regards,

Brian

The presentation is looking pretty good. One thing I did notice, on
page 19 and 20, the comments do not reflect the code. You talk about
yield, but use a passed block.

Cover slide looks good! ;)

This is great! Can I add your slides to the WhyRuby? repository
(http://whyruby.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?Ruby_Pre...)?

Do you have speaker notes?

If you had 1 to 2 hours to present ruby to a group of people what do
you think would be the most important point to get across? Mind you,
you would need to spend 30- mins on syntax.

I noticed a couple of typos:

Page 8: if the situation is not ambigue
should be: if the situation is not ambiguos

Page 11: skript
should be: script

Gee... there's a mistake in my correction! :-(

I should have said...
should be: if the situation is not ambiguous

Thanks ;) I really liked this. Even though the unetched one had a better
angle of vision, but the etched ruby is geekier.

Thanks for the comments. In fact there was a problem in my makefiles, I
had fixed this before but the update was not reflected. Guess I have to
learn rake.

I want to link to your sides on the slides homepage to give you the
credits for the image, where should I link to?

regards,

Brian

Shure, but the final relase will be on sunday after the course has
finished.
Until then I hope the slides will expand a bit more.

If you're worried about it, just include my name. Hmm, unless you want
to use it as an excuse to get more people hooked on Ruby Quiz?
<laughs> Seriously, the image is free. You're under no obligation.
I'm glad it helped.
