You're not alone, Tony:

These sections are pretty solid: intro, selectors, declarations, positioning https://github.com/camcclure/535/tree/dev

More coming tomorrow.

I'm with you too. Still trying to figure out some things.

Anthony--

One thing I notice is that a lot of your Ruby constructs aren't necessarily idiomatic. For example, I would imagine it's more common to see something like

class_file = []

over

class_file = Array.new

Also, any sort of loop construct could probably be replaced with iterable functions (each, etc.)

Zed Shaw makes a case for not using these. See http://learncodethehardway.org/blog/AUG_19_2012.html. I dig Zed. I don't know how I feel about this though. Regardless, it's not necessarily something that needs to change, but it is maybe something to be aware of.

Good catch, Matthew. I don't have the 100% feel for Ruby yet. I did realize that I over designed the ID and needed to just have a simple script to explain. That will be delivered in a future version.
