This is my technical interview cheat sheet. Feel free to fork it or do whatever you want with it. PLEASE let me know if there are any errors or if anything crucial is missing. I will add more links soon.

Studying for a Tech Interview Sucks, so Here's a Cheat Sheet to Help

This list is meant to be a both a quick guide and reference for further research into these topics. It's basically a summary of that comp sci course you never took or forgot about, so there's no way it can cover everything in depth. It also will be available as a gist on Github for everyone to edit and add to.

Modules (lesson from 29 July 2015) covers object model, namespaces, mixins, and functions.

Modules

To understand modules, we first have to understand a little bit about how Ruby works. So, lets define the things that exist in Ruby and see how they work together. Then, we will be able to understand how modules fit into this, and what they are here for.

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.

##What is Rails?

Rails is an open source web application framework written in Ruby. It is a full-stack framework that has been optimised for programmer happiness and sustainable productivity. It emphasises the use of well-known software engineering patterns and paradigms, including convention over configuration (CoC), don't repeat yourself (DRY), the active record pattern, and model–view–controller (MVC).

Extra: David Heinemeier Hansson (DHH) is the creator of Rails, having extracted it from his work on Basecamp. He first released Rails as open source in July 2004.

Interview questions reloaded

1. What is a class, what is an object and why we need modules

This may be simple, but it allows to start a conversation between two strangers involved into the same craft.

Answer:

Classes are a blue-print, they may hold data, likely they hold methods; classes are directly connected with an idea of objects, because object is an instance of a class. As objects are first-class citizens in Ruby, there is a main, root class Object, and all classes are inherited from this root entity. Modules, generally, are a tool for mix-ins and they provide something we call a namespace. Modules cannot be initialised the way we can do this with classes, but they provide a multiple inheritance.

2. Who’s _why and what’s up with his Shoes?
