Created April 12, 2011 15:41
Convert time to a float
# If you come across the need to store time as a float in ruby (I won’t judge you),
# you can use this bit of code. It assumes that each subpart of the time string is
# 60 parts of the previous part. This works for hours, minutes and seconds,
# regardless of how it is entered, and will always use the first "part" as the base
# measurement, i.e. 12:30 minutes becomes 12.5 minutes
j = 0
timer = 0

Limit open threads in ruby
# Pretty simple solution to harness the capability of multithreading without running into problems
# caused by doing too many things at once.
# In this example, I was trying to download hundreds of web pages, but opening all those connections
# simultaneously caused a variety of errors
# Contains download_link(link,save_dir,save_name) to download and save webpages locally (irrelevant)
require 'download_page'
