Perhaps you might wish to reconsider the first sentence in the template methods section. Hopefully you are not trying to implement problems (software has enough of those already), but solutions to problems.

@Nizar : Yeah, I didn’t spend much time on example searching and building, sort of wrote it 2 minutes. Thanks for the tip though! I’ll try building more concrete working examples in my Ruby specific Patterns.

@riffraff : Fixed now. I did that zip thing as according to the design pattern figure, although now changed to the recommended way.

I second nizar’s suggestion: check your examples and stick to ruby practices: snake_case for methods, “zip” shall be capitalized, the last example lacks an “end”

But nice post anyway

Hi!

Nice post. Maybe you should look at existing Ruby libraries and dig up examples utilizing these patterns. That way your posts would be more than copy/paste…

P.S. Stick with Ruby’s recommended syntax.
