Simple For Loops

Week 3 Stretch Goal Tips

In general there are two types of problems to solve:

  1. "Calculate some value based on all the numbers in the array"
  2. "Find a number in the array and stop once you've found it"

In pretty much all cases, all you need to do is have a way of looping through the array of numbers, keeping track of what you have done so far, and reporting the result at the end.

Interested in becoming friendly with local crows after reading stories and first hand accounts. Obtained peanuts. Later, found grackles, but not crows. They're smaller and travel in larger flocks. Were not very interested in peanuts. They have irridescent blue heads. Curious if the small blue glass left in my garden is from the crows?

Squirrels like peanuts too. I threw a peanut towards an squirrel and it bounced off him. It did not phase him. He ate the peanut.

Adding apartment to our api project
  1. add apartment to gemfile
  2. run initializer to generate config/apartment.rb
  3. Create our Event model (which maps to schemas)
  4. before_validate: create self.schema that uses .parameterize.underscore from self.name on event model
  5. after_create: create new apartment tenant on the event model
  6. Set up the config to ignore a few of our models that are public
  7. hard code the config to select a single event schema, for now
  8. migrate over all the data:

Started having some strange behavior today.


My ruby deploy script (via mina) was crashing on irc notifications.


OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=unknown state: unknown protocol


Later in the day, a few of our client software scripts could only connect 2-at-a-time
(when one would drop, a third would join in its place). When I dug into the guts of
it, the python error message was:

Google Chrome Pending video status


There's an outstanding bug in Google Chrome where video resources aren't properly closed after
download, so the socket limit gets maxed and subsequent videos (and all ajax calls) hang.
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=234779


I tried, with no success:


    

  • Removing the  tag after unload (in an attempt to force the resource to be released)
    •
