You got your hands on some data that was leaked from a social network and you want to help the poor people.
Luckily you know a government service to automatically block a list of credit cards.
The service is a little old school though and you have to upload a CSV file in the exact format. The upload fails if the CSV file contains invalid data.
The CSV files should have two columns, Name and Credit Card. Also, it must be named after the following pattern:
YYYYMMDD
.csv.
One of the many reasons I love working with Ruby is it has a rich vocabulary that allows you to accomplish your goals with a minimal amount of code. If there isn't a method that does exactly what you want, it's usually possible to build an elegant solution yourself.
Let's take the example of simulating the rolling of a die.
We can represent a die as an array of its faces.
die = [*?⚀..?⚅]
# => ["⚀", "⚁", "⚂", "⚃", "⚄", "⚅"]
