An article on Ruby Blocks and Procs

Building a Foundation with &blocks

What is a Block?

Blocks... What are they anyway? You've probably used them without even realizing it and most certainly have seen them, but do you know what they are?

If we wanted to take a simplistic approach at defining a block we could say:

A block is a chunk of code contained within the do..end or { curly braces } syntax that is to be executed at some point in time.

With that being said, if you've ever used the Enumerable#map or Enumerable#each method, you've probably used a block. Lets take a look at two different types of blocks before we go into more detail about what a block really is.

15 Questions to Ask During a Ruby Interview

Originally published in June 2008

When hiring Ruby on Rails programmers, knowing the right questions to ask during an interview was a real challenge for me at first. In 30 minutes or less, it's difficult to get a solid read on a candidate's skill set without looking at code they've previously written. And in the corporate/enterprise world, I often don't have access to their previous work.

To ensure we hired competent ruby developers at my last job, I created a list of 15 ruby questions -- a ruby measuring stick if you will -- to select the cream of the crop that walked through our doors.

What to expect

Candidates will typically give you a range of responses based on their experience and personality. So it's up to you to decide the correctness of their answer.
