YART - Yet Another Ruby Tutorial!!!

[Paul Barry]

Hello to all in the Ruby world!

[James Edward Gray II suggested I send this email to the list, as he
thought some of you may be interested ... so, here goes.]

I've spent the last few weeks putting together a classroom-based Ruby
tutorial. The slides (as PDFs) are available here:

http://glasnost.itcarlow.ie/~barryp/ruby-tut.html

Feel free to link to and/or use this material, which is designed to be
presented within a laboratory setting - my students are sitting in front
of PCs (directly interacting with Ruby) while I cover this material.

Regards.

Paul.

I think you've done a great job.

You should cross post to the emerging Ruby-Ireland mailing list too.

I had a quick look through your tutorials - good entry level stuff indeed.
Theres a whole bunch of QA engineers at my place that got very
interested at some WATIR tests we wrote. I have been looking for
good tutorials which come in at the novice level, or which can be
easily adapted into our own kind of training.

 

[Paul Barry]

I've no problems making the OpenOffice.org IMPRESS files available on my
website if people want to adapt my material (as it's not at all easy to
adapt PDFs).

Actually ... I'll do that sometime next week (and post to this list when
it's all on-line).

Cheers.

Paul.

P.S. I'll check out Ruby-Ireland, too.

Hello.

Thanks to everyone who sent me words of encouragement about my Ruby
Tutorial.

Managed to grab an hour this AM to work on putting OpenOffice.org
Impress and PowerPoint versions of my Ruby Tutorial slides on-line:

http://glasnost.itcarlow.ie/~barryp/ruby-tut-source.html

Feel free to use/adapt as you see fit, remembering - of course - to
share any enhancements with the community.

Have fun!

Paul.

Excelent work Paul, i just have noticed that there's a mistake in the
word Ruby at the title in my browser. It says:
"The source to the Rutby Tutorial".

I enjoyed doing this:

newRubyTutorial]$ cat download.rb
1.upto(14) do |i|
system( "wget http://glasnost.itcarlow.ie/~barryp/ruby/LearnRuby#{i}.odp")
sleep 5
end

WHAT! You didn't make this a rake task? <G>

Thanks!
