Hi and greetings to all group members!
I'm a new Ruby user with a background in Applescript, Hypertalk
(Supercard), and a little Unix. I was intrigued by Matt Neuburg's
article about Applescript and Ruby, and that's what got me reading some
intro books on Ruby. I just bought Textmate and I am lovin' it!
Anyway, I am wondering why this seemingly simple script fails:
sizeList = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6]
countarray = [3,4,6]
countarray.each {|x| sizeList.delete_at(x)}
what I want to happen is that sizelist gets deleted at the positions
specified in countArray, but the result I am getting is:
0
1
2
4
6
and the expected result should be 0,1,2,5, right?
What gives?
TIA,
vince
