Hi, I 'm rather new to Ruby, but most of what it mentions seems similar to what I've seen so far.
The only thing I question is that it says always to include the parentheses around parameter lists. I tend to do the very opposite, only including parentheses when absolutely necessary. I think Phlip said something similar? Unless I totally misunderstood. So I guess that's my question to everyone else: do you include parenthesis around arguments or not?
