Ruby Koans

When my work projects don't include a technology I want to develop more skill in, I look for ways to include a slice of it in my day.

Personally, I set aside an hour a day called "JTigger @ Play"... it's my chance to do whatever the heck I want... but what I REALLY want to do is make an investment.  Right now, my focus includes deepening my understanding of Ruby.  Not just learning the language, but the culture.

Today I started down the path to Ruby enlightenment.  Not really, but this project Ruby Koans is a cute and fun way to jump in the deep end.

I cranked through the first 16 today (in about 30 minutes from git clone and reading the instructions).  THe first steps seem like the right size: baby steps.  It's all review for me personally, but projecting back, I think I'd get enough of it as a total n00b.

Check it out!
