Learn to Code with Ruby

This advanced course is designed for developers ready to master Ruby and object-oriented design. Beginning with an in-depth exploration of blocks, procs, and lambdas, you'll learn to write flexible, reusable code. You'll delve into the yield keyword, block return values, and advanced techniques for custom iterators and block parameters. The course then covers: - Ruby classes, including complex hierarchies, instance and class variables, method overriding, the self keyword, and encapsulation with private and protected methods. Emphasis is placed on best practices for robust, maintainable software. -Advanced topics such as inheritance, modules, and mixins are thoroughly examined, including inheritance hierarchies, the super keyword, and mixins for extending functionality. -Practical modules on file input/output, sets, and date/time manipulation are included. By the end, you’ll understand advanced Ruby programming and object-oriented design, ready to tackle complex projects. The course targets experienced Ruby developers familiar with basic syntax and foundational principles.

This course is designed for those with a foundational understanding of Ruby seeking to elevate their skills. - It begins with string operations, exploring differences between single and double quotes, multi-line strings, and string concatenation, while also covering string comparisons and manipulations. - Control structures are introduced next, including various loops and conditional statements with practical examples like the FizzBuzz problem. - You'll learn to implement while and until loops, use keywords like next and break, and delve into recursion. - The final sections cover debugging and advanced array methods, teaching you to use tools like the debugger and binding.break, and exploring array iteration methods like each, map, and select. - You'll also cover ranges, strings, Hashes and explore how object references and copies work in Ruby. The course is ideal for developers with basic Ruby knowledge looking to deepen their expertise and improve problem-solving abilities. This approach combines theoretical explanations with practical applications, featuring hands-on coding exercises and real-world examples.
