Don't read this blog...

i am trying to teach myself Ruby from the pickaxe, this means i need to come up with my own exercises to practice with.  My plan is to implement sorting algorithms and swipe exercise ideas from my C++ text. I'd like to go by chapters and post my solutions. This blog is for my own consumption, feel free to read it but i have no intention of making it have value to anyone but me. besides I'll probably loose enthusiasm in a week and have blogger sending me emails harassing me to post something.
