Quite the opposite: Situation 1: you have a method with 20 lines of code that performs a calculation, and every time you need to execute that code you call the method. Situation 2: every time you need to do do the calculation, you write the 20 lines of code in your app. Which situation would you deem to be the one that repeats itself? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
