Programming With Nothing

05 April 2012

A wonderful video of Tom Stuart’s talk at the Ru3y Manor conference. The highlight is at ~17:15 where Tom has run into problems implementing the modulo operator using only Ruby procs, and turns to the Y and Z-Combinator functions for help: > The Y-Combinator only works in bat-shit languages, like Haskell… And Maths. I have now added, “implement FizzBuzz in Ruby, using only Procs, in a real programming interview”, to my life goals.
