Beyond Enumerable: For Want of Better Windows | baweaver

Enumerable is probably one of, if not the most, powerful features of Ruby. It condenses several useful iteration patterns into more common language and allows us to focus on the problem at hand directly rather than by its component pieces like we might in a more imperative language. The problem is that while it is indeed powerful, there’s only so much it can do, so where do we find ourselves with problems that lie beyond Enumerable? This series explores some of those shapes, and how the lessons we learned from Enumerable are still very much applicable once we step beyond it. Our first step is into windows.
