Hi,

I am a newbie in Ruby. I wrote 2 small programs. Both are running with  
no errors.

For the first program it simulates a service queue in the variables  
musteri means customer and memur means worker of the bank. I would like  
to know how can i write it in Ruby way and more optimized.

For the second one i try to read system process table log it and then  
try to point programs which are using a lot of cpu and kill them. I use  
ps and awk except Ruby. I would like to know how can i do it with pure  
Ruby (without ps and awk ) and also with Ruby way. Thanks for all  
answers

ps: Comments of the code are in turkish but i suppose codes is enough  
for you. If it will be a problem i can translate them into english.

Have you tried running it with ‘ruby -rprofile’?
