Good Ruby Code (RE: why dosn't ruby support // to comment?

Kevin Kleinfelter

Which brings to mind the question -- which of the applications on RAA are examples of exceptionally well written code? I'm still
learning Ruby. I find that if I just write programs, I write idiomatic C programs in Ruby. I'm looking for recommendations on well
written applications/frameworks/libraries that are an educational and interesting demonstration of superb Ruby code.

TIA

But, hey, now I'm sounding like a dour old pedant. Good Ruby code is a
pleasure to read, especially when I run across an idiom so clear and
powerful that it makes me want to start coding just so I can copy it.

You might do well to look at the libs shipped with the Ruby standard
library.

I am naturally biased, but I believe Ruby Quiz is a great source fir
learning idiomatic Ruby (and clever tricks):
