Nope, got that beat. I'll be 66 on Sunday. First code in 1970 in a freshman Fortran class at ASU, but really learned logic as an aircraft mechanic at age 18 in the Air Force. If you had a problem on the aircraft that you didn't know about, you used decision logic tables or problem solution charts to find the symptoms and search for solutions. Just a big nested if else statement. Steve -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
