What Is The Ruby Programming Challenge For Newbies (RPCFN)?
The RPCFN is a monthly programming challenge for Ruby Newbies in the spirit of the Ruby Quiz. A new RPCFN will be posted on the RubyLearning blog every 1st of the month (normally). The contest is open to individuals only and you are invited to contribute solution(s) and/or discussion(s) as comments to the respective blog post. All solutions posted would be hidden to allow users to come up with their own solutions. On the 21st of the month, all the solutions will be thrown open for everyone to see and comment upon. No new solutions will be accepted from 21st onwards. The cycle begins again on the 1st of the following month. The Ruby working solution(s) should be clear-cut, follow Ruby conventions and still be easy to understand.
