4. def  what  is  ruby?      'A  programming  language'   end
5. def  why  do  i  need  to  learn  it?      ruby  on  rails  =  'Ruby  language'  +  'Rails  framework'      read  the  slides!  unless  u  likez  jsp   end
6. def  what  makes  ruby  =  :special      features  =  ['Object-­‐oriented']      features  <<  'Interpreted'      features  <<  'Open-­‐source'            #  And      features  <<  'Mixins'  #  somewhat  similar  to  multiple  inheritance      features  <<  "Native  threads"      features  <<  "Large  standard  library"      features  <<  "Centralized  package  management  through  RubyGems"      features  <<  "Built-­‐in  support  for  rational  and  complex  numbers"      features  <<  "Automatic  garbage  collection"      features  <<  "Default  arguments"      features  <<  "Literal  notation  for  arrays,  hashes,  regex  and  symbols"      features  <<  "Dynamic  typing  and  Duck  typing"      features  <<  "Operator  overloading"      features  <<  "Flexible  syntax  that  serves  as  a  foundation  for  DSL"   end

10. Chapter 1
11. Basic concepts of Ruby if  (a  !=  null)  {...}   null.toString()  //  NPE     unless  a.nil?  {...}   nil.to_s  #  ""   -­‐4.abs    #  →  4   6.zero?  #  →  false

Types in Ruby puts  -­‐4.type                                        #  Fixnum   puts  0x5C1.type                                  #  Fixnum   puts  01411.type                                  #  Fixnum   puts  12_000_000.type                        #  Fixnum   puts  1.5.type                                      #  Float   puts  12.043e-­‐04.type                        #  Float   puts  123456789101112131415.type  #  Bignum  
14. Types in Ruby -  Lightweight strings -  Escape sequences (\t, \n, …) -  Expression interpolation puts  'hello\tmiguel'  #  →  hello\tmiguel   puts  "hello\tmiguel"  #  →  hello    miguel   puts  "hello  #{'manolo  '  *3}"   #  hello  manolo  manolo  manolo   myvar.to_s

20. Types in Ruby my_waiku  =  %W(he  is  nice  to  my  #{2*7}  cats)   my_waiku.to_a  #  ["he",  "is",  "nice",  "to",  "my",  "14",  "cats"]     my_range  =  1..5   my_array  =  my_range.to_a  #  [1,  2,  3,  4,  5]     my_array[6]  =  7                  #  [1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  nil,  7]   my_array.insert(7,  8)      #  [1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  nil,  7,  8]   my_array.insert(-­‐1,  9)    #  [1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  nil,  7,  8,  9]     my_array.pop                        #  [1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  nil,  7,  8]   my_array.pop  3                    #  [1,  2,  3,  4,  5]   my_array.push  6,  7            #  [1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7]   my_array  <<  8  <<  9            #  [1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7,  8,  9]

22. Types in Ruby roles  =  {  :LA  =>  'Gaspar',  :PM  =>  'Tavares'  }   roles  =  {  LA:  'Gaspar',  PM:  'Tavares'  }   Alternate notation when keys are symbols RUBY  1.9.2  
23. Operators ==   !=   <   >   <=   >=   <=>   ===   .eql?   .equal?   Combined comparison  0  if first equals second  1  if first is greater than the second -­‐1  if first operand is less than the second
24. Operators ==   !=   <   >   <=   >=   <=>   ===   .eql?   .equal?   True if both have the same type and values 1.0  ==  1      #  true   1.0.eql?  1  #  false
25. Operators ==   !=   <   >   <=   >=   <=>   ===   .eql?   .equal?   True if both have the same object id a  =  1   b  =  1   a.equal?  b  #  true  (why?)
26. Operators ==   !=   <   >   <=   >=   <=>   ===   .eql?   .equal?   x  ?  y  :  z   Ternary operator
27. Operators &&   and   ||   or   !   not   = = / = /

33. Classes
34. Modules
35. Modules - You shouldn’t put things in a class that don’t really go together - Modules are a good excuse to break that rule without breaking it And because…
36. Modules mixins!
37. Blocks -  Somewhat similar to Java anonymous inner classes
