These are steps to setup a new project in ROR.
You must configure and install your Gems individually instead of copying the Gemfile from a previous project.

Refer to Heroku setup if you want to push your project to Heroku.

Using the Sieve of Eratosthenes to Find Prime Numbers in Ruby

The Sieve of Eratosthenes is a super efficient way to determine whether or not numbers are prime. Essentially, it takes a max number, and via the process of elimination, gives you an array that contains every prime number up to that max number.

The very short explanation is this:

1. Create an array from 0..max
2. Starting at 2, delete every multiple of 2 from the array.
3. Then, go back to the beginning, and delete every multiple of 3.
4. Repeat this starting from the next available number at the beginning of the array.

#How I built an audio book reader for my nearly blind grandfather

Last year, when visiting my family back home in Holland, I also stopped by my grand-parents. My grand-father, now 93 years old, had always been a very active man.

Trying to think of something for him to do, I suggested he try out audio books. After finally convincing him -- he said audio books were for sad old people -- that listening to a well performed recording is actually a wonderful experience, I realized the problem of this idea.

####The problem with audio devices and the newly blind. After my first impulse to jump up and go buy him an

A list of resources that aspiring Rails developers can use to learn Rails and other relevant technologies. This list includes some resources that I see recommended all over the web--not all of which I like--as well as some hidden gems that I've found valuable. This list is intended to supplement my blog post here.

• Codecademy
  • One of the more well-known sites to offer interactive programming tutorials, Codecademy is probably best utilized by those who are pretty new to programming, though the Ruby tutorial is good for teaching Ruby syntax and eventually gets into some less trivial material.
• Try Ruby
• Pretty similar to Codecademy. Once again, it's beginner-friendly, though, as someone who knew about object-oriented programming beforehand, I found it somewhat annoying to use, as there's no page with links to the individual exercises (at le
