Ruby Implementation

Do we really want literal copies of the dict file on the task page? --Rdm 13:58, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

I added a note to the submitters talk page and have chopped most of it from the example for now. --Paddy3118 17:13, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

What sort of a world is it where if someone says your dict looks big an Irish number chops it? From http://rosettacode.org/wiki/User_talk:Nigel_Galloway#Huge_Ruby_example I see I have two choices:

A) modify it to read the dict from a file
B) move it to a sub-page on its own

I choose C. Well B+ really. The + is, it finds a use for history, which I see relied on too often.--Nigel Galloway 11:53, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
