Happy Saturday!! Well... sorta, I have to work most of today, but I'm getting a little coding in this morning. This week I finished the RubyMonk lessons and problems. A few reflections: i) RubyMonk is an excellent resource and was a great follow up to Codecademy. ii) From my experience, RubyMonk taught me a lot more than Codecademy, but perhaps I would have felt that way done the reverse as well iii) The last two lessons in RubyMonk seem kind of rushed. It's possible they were just topics I was not familiar with, but the I/O streams and File class lessons contained a ton of info and went too fast for my liking. I will be review these topics on my own.
There is one real criticism I have though. First, a note about myself - I'm an achievement whore. This should put the following complaint in the proper light. RubyMonk is stuck at 99% completion for me. Its saying I haven't finished the reading on Lambdas. I've gone over that lesson, the one before it, and the one after it like 10 times. Why??? Someone from RubyMonk please fix that. It's like a twitch for me. :P
Next up "Ruby in 100 Minutes"...
End of Monk
