Coin Change Problem solved in Ruby using While and Until. US Coins. Requires RSpec. To run: $ rspec change_spec.rb Not the fewest lines possible but definitely easy for others to understand. ;-)
class Change
def change(amount)
coins = []
remaining_amount = amount
while remaining_amount != 0
coin = get_highest_coin(remaining_amount)
coins << coin
remaining_amount = remaining_amount - coin
end
coins

Coin Change Problem Single Method. Solved in Ruby. Nested until loops. ( requires RSpec) Available coins are USD: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coins_of_the_United_States_dollar ;-)
class Change
def change(amount)
available_coins = [100,50,25,10,5,1] # http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coins_of_the_United_States_dollar
coins = []
index = 0
coin = available_coins[index]
remaining_amount = amount
until remaining_amount == 0
until remaining_amount >= coin
index = index + 1

Coin change problem. Solved in Ruby. using each loop Fewest lines (so far) slightly fancy: times and inject methods used - but no faster than the simple nested until loops Requires RSpec to run.
class Change
def change(amount)
available_coins, coins, remaining_amount = [100,50,25,10,5,1], [], amount
available_coins.each { | coin |
if remaining_amount - coin >= 0
remaining_amount / coin != 0 ? (remaining_amount / coin).to_int.times { coins << coin } : coins << coin
puts "Remaining Amount: #{remaining_amount} | Coin: #{coin}" # console feedback :-)
remaining_amount = amount - coins.inject(:+) # see: http://stackoverflow.com/a/1538801/1148249
end
}

Coin Change Problem Solved in 5 Lines of Ruby. ( Method code on SINGLE Line! ;-) Do NOT do this in RL kids! ( Seriously Unreadable/Unmaintainable! Simply a Thought Exercise in taking compression to its logical conclusions ... ) Surprisingly fast to execute! :-P
class Change
def change(amount)
available_coins, coins, remaining_amount = [100,50,25,10,5,1], [], amount; available_coins.each { |coin| if ((remaining_amount/coin).to_int > 0) then (remaining_amount/coin).to_int.times { coins << coin }; remaining_amount = amount-coins.inject(:+) end }; return coins
end
end
describe Change do
it "returns [1] for 1" do
expect(subject.change(1)).to eq [1]

A Basic Hello World NodeJS script in CoffeeScript. This can be a two or three line script. but i've done it this way to explain the components.
http = require 'http' # Require the HTTP Core NodeJS Module (notice the lack of brackets)
port = process.env.PORT or 4000 # The TCP port you want to "listen" on (see line #6) allows the system (e.g. Heroku to set it or uses 4000 on local machine)
http.createServer (req, res) -> # Creates a basic Web Server and gives you the REQuest and RESponse objects to the function
res.writeHead 200 # Write the HTTP Status Code "200" ("All OK") in the RESponse to the client (browser)
res.end 'Hello World!' # End the RESponse with the message 'Hello World'
.listen port # the dot before the word listen means "Chain" to the createServer and listen on the port
console.log "Visit: http://localhost:#{port}" # console.log allows you to write a "Note-to-self" on the command line.
