lancejpollard / Rails Nested Forms with belongs_to
Created January 13, 2010 23:09
Rails Nested Forms with belongs_to, doesn't work by default
# user.rb
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :address
accepts_nested_attributes_for :address # can't have allow_destroy
end
# users_controller.rb
class UsersController < ApplicationController
# Author: Pieter Noordhuis
# Description: Simple demo to showcase Redis PubSub with EventMachine
#
# Update 7 Oct 2010:
# - This example does *not* appear to work with Chrome >=6.0. Apparently,
# the WebSocket protocol implementation in the cramp gem does not work
# well with Chrome's (newer) WebSocket implementation.
#
# Requirements:
# - rubygems: eventmachine, thin, cramp, sinatra, yajl-ruby

Implementation of the recursive backtracking algorithm for maze generation
# Recursive backtracking algorithm for maze generation. Requires that
# the entire maze be stored in memory, but is quite fast, easy to
# learn and implement, and (with a few tweaks) gives fairly good mazes.
# Can also be customized in a variety of ways.
