# Sick of using Hashes or Hashie::Mash objects when working with API responses? 
# Yeah, me too.
# Let's use Virtus to make some nice objects that work like we'd expect.
# For more checkout: https://github.com/solnic/virtus

# Given we get some JSON back from an API like this
{things: [
  {name: 'Thing 1', created_at: '2014-09-11 15:57:33 -0700'},

This code visualizes the solution to this Twitter interview question.

My first solution only looked at immediate neighbors to figure out if you're in a trough that will collection water. The clever part is considering all values to the left and right of you, not immediate neighbors. My naive solution to [5,1,5] was pretty close, but as I expanded to more complex problems, considering your neighbors wasn't enough and my solution began to bloat. Looking at this answer gave me the insight to strip down my solution.

Once I had it solved I went back and built the simple solution display.

To run the tests simply run $> ruby -Itest rain_test.rb

# When an RSpec test like this fails,
# 
#   @my_array.should == [@some_model, @some_model2]
# 
# RSpec will call inspect on each of the objects to "help" you figure out
# what went wrong. Well, inspect will usually dump a TON OF SHIT and make trying
# to figure out why `@my_array` is not made up of `@some_model` and `@some_model2`.
#
# This little module and technique helps get around that. It will redefine `inspect`
# if you include it in your model object.
