This repository contains some quests to be solved using basic Ruby syntax. Run the server and try to solve the problems described there.
# haven't tested on Windows, there migth be some additional packages
# and compiler needed
bundle install
ruby courseboard.rb
The server should be running on http://localhost:4567
You need the server only for the Quest 4. Otherwise it's ok just to open
public/index.html page.
The solutions are in directories quest#n. In Ruby there are often more
ways how to write things. Therefore there might be more files (with
suffixes such as _long, _medium, _short). Usually, the shorter
versions use some more advanced Ruby feature. I recommend to compare the
differences to learn something new.
You might be also intereted in the way the server is written. It's just
a few lines of code, that provide a basic websockets features, using
sinatra and sinatra-websocket gems.
