New Rabbit Tortoise Story sumanth krishna

Good old lessons in teamwork from an age-old fable The Tortoise And The Hare *Once upon a time a tortoise and a hare had an argument about who was faster. That’s not true. The fastest runner is me! I’m the fastest runner. *They decided to settle the argument with a race. They agreed on a route and started off the race.Fine! Ok, let’s have a race. *The hare shot ahead and ran briskly for some time. Then seeing that he was far ahead of the tortoise, he thought he'd sit under a tree for some time and relax before continuing the race. Poor guy! Even if I take a nap, he could not catch up with

Ruby on Rails simple examples & strings

Tue, 18 Dec 2007 14:17:21 GMT

Ruby on Rails : Strings Today we will look into few examples and introduce on strings with working examples. Say we start on simple math factorial function The mathematical definition of n factorial is: n! = 1 = n * (n-1)! (when n==0) (otherwise) In ruby, this can be written as: def factorial(n) if n == 0 1 else n * factorial(n-1) end end You may notice the repeated occurrence of end. (Note: the syntax of ruby more closely mimics that of a language named Eiffel.) You may also notice the lack of a return statement. It is not needed because a ruby function returns the last thing that was evalu
