Ruby Under a Microscope

Introduction

To understand how Ruby works, read its C source code. After learning each part of Ruby's internal implementation we perform an experiment and use Ruby to test itself.

Most of the book discusses how MRI works.

MRI (Matz's Ruby Interpreter) was invented in 1993 by Yukihiro Matsumoto a.k.a Matz.

httpd = BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer(('localhost', PORT), SimpleHTTPServer.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler)

AngularJS

• Build custom directives. Basic controllers and templates are great, but anything beyond basic interactivity usually requires custom directives. The learning curve for custom directives can be challenging, so just take it one step at a time.
• Inter-directive communication via controllers.
• Become very familiar with scope usage, best practices, and pitfalls. Scope inheritance, and encapsulation are some of the areas where Angular can drive you insane, but this knowledge is essential in order to build large-scale, maintainable Angular apps.
• Explore the differences between Services, Factories, and Providers.
• Become a testing expert. One thing that I like about the Angular community is that tests are expected and encouraged.

Here are some resources to help:
