Ruby

Hello,

I’m writing a tutorial for beginners, primarily aimed at Teachers and
Students.

I’ve written the following tutorial.

http://www.oriontransfer.co.nz/education/learn-ruby/lesson-0/index

Any feedback would be really really helpful. Thanks to anyone who takes
a look.

Any suggestions or feedback would be fantastic - what should I add or
remove, what was not clear / etc.

Kind regards,
Samuel

Hello,

I think there is a small error in the last example. It’s written:
# Do you wear a watch? Ruby can help you out!
puts “The time is: #{Time.now.to_s}”

I think it should say:

         puts "The time is: #{Time.now.to_s}"

Oh yes, Thanks - I’ve fixed it :slight_smile:

I haven’t read the tutorial, but this can be written as:

puts “The time is: #{Time.now}”

since string interpolation calls to_s for you.
