Hi Sonia,
ActiveSupport extends Object with the #tap method (backported if
necessary from ruby 1.9/1.8.7) for this exact purpose:
number.scan(/./).map do |digit|
digit(SpecialDigits[digit] || digit, size)
end.
tap {|result|
# probe here!
pp result
}.
transpose.map do |line|
line.join(" ")
end.join("\n")
HTH
