Talk & Topic Ideas, Coding Sprints & Hack-a-thons
Ideas for Talks
Rubyize This!
Presenter: Scott Patten
Rubyize This! was invented by François Lamontagne of Ruby Fleebie. The idea is that someone puts up a chunk of code that is written in Ruby, but in a not very Rubyish way. Then, everyone in the audience gets to Rubyize it!
I'll present some ugly sample code, and the audience will submit their refactorings to Refactor My Code. When everyone is done, you get to present your Rubyization.
Feel free to bring your own ugly sample code for us to work on too.
Should be fun for all, novice Rubyist to expert!
