| Well, I understand he just learned english a couple of years ago. I've heard that when he started Ruby, he basically knew no english. Obviously, he is demand as a speaker now, so he has been working on his english. And most listeners are willing to listen, because he knows what he is doing. |

| Interesting, then, that he followed the convention of using English names for everything in the language. It's a convention, sure, but if I were building a language for myself and my first language wasn't English, I wouldn't be using English. Of course, this is why I don't have a world-class language to my name ;-) |
| BUT since the ... ( 9 months ago by s1e) |
| BUT since the latter hash is actually just for named parameters, you can probably pass both hash and the named param like google {:foo => "bar}, :boo => "far" and Ruby should interpret it fine It's questionable whether Rails should be rewritten to simply use variables instantiated by named params instead of internally deciphering them from an options hash I'm not in posession of 2.0, so I some of this is speculative, hope it helps though :-) |
| Hehe, Matz rocks. ... ( 9 months ago by s1e) |
| Hehe, Matz rocks. The last question was a bit awkward, but it showed Ruby's beauty The Hash object at the bottom of the arguments list Matz was explaining about, can actually have the brackets omitted, but is still interpreted as :a => hash. When you want to pass another hash in the parameter, you have to explicitly wrap them both in brackets, or instantiate by Hash#new If you have a function def google(opts) puts opts[:foo] + boo end This is how it looks google {:boo => "foo"}, {:far => "bar"} |
