# Given an array of path strings, find the longest common prefix path.
def find_base_path(paths)
  return paths.first if paths.length <= 1
  arr = paths.sort
  f = arr.first.split('/')
  l = arr.last.split('/')
  i = 0
  i += 1 while f[i] == l[i] && i <= f.length
  f.slice(0, i).join('/')
end

Thank you! You've made my day.
