Re: RDoc 2 (Was: Improvements to RDoc (ideas for GSoC))

It's easy to add "specials" to RDoc markup, depending upon how  
complicated you want them to be.  I wrote a small wiki using RDoc 2's  
markup here:

http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2008/02/14/an-rdoc-wiki

A WikiWord is handled like this:

class WikiHtml < RDoc::Markup::ToHtml
   def initialize
     super

      <at> markup.add_special(/\b(([A-Z][a-z]+){2,})\b/, :WIKIWORD)
   end

Sorry. That should be SOAP::RPC::Proxy::Operation#marshal.

I'm not positive, but I think you could implement James's idea in
SOAP::RPC::Proxy#marshal (in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/soap/rpc/proxy.rb
here).

I haven't tested this, but I would save this:

module SOAP
module RPC

class Proxy
private
  class Operation

Hello Erik:

Please pat yourself on the back for me.  I haven't used rubyscript2exe 
yet but I'm grateful that you've provided the option.

You can also use JRuby, then bundle up your app in a jar and use Java 
Web Start to deploy it.  Installation is a matter of clicking a link on 
a Web page.

Fellow Happy Camper Logan Barnett gave a demo of this at last weekend's 
MountainWest RubyConf.

Wow, this is too much information for a monday morning (or for a late 
night monday night at the time being! :D

Nice article, i hope you manage to keep it on a regular basis...

Huh... it may have just a fallen into place. What do you think of:

  require 'facets/module/basename'
  require 'facets/module/modspace'

  module Paramix  # or PatrametricMixin ?

    def self.append_features(base)
      base.modspace.module_eval %{
        def #{base.basename.to_s}(parameters, &block)
          Delegator.new(#{base}, parameters, &block)
        end
      }
    end

    # It you want to define the module method by hand. You
    # can use Parmix.new instead of Parmix::Delegator.new.

    def self.new(delegate_module, parameters={}, &base_block)
      Delegator.new(delegate_module, parameters, &base_block)
    end

    #

    class Delegator < Module

Hello Charles:

My head hurt trying to understand the wikipedia description for 
polynomial time so I stopped read it.  That aside, a cool algorithm was 
pointed out by Tim Pease in March of 2007.  It uses regular expressions 
to achieve, to a point, non-exponential solving times for prime numbers.

Here is an example of that algorithm demonstrated via a method which 
extends the Fixnum class.

class Fixnum
   def is_prime?
     ((("1" * self) =~ /^1$|^(11+?)\1+$/) == nil)
   end
end

irb(main):009:0> 2.is_prime?
=> true
irb(main):010:0> 113.is_prime?
=> true
irb(main):008:0> 123457.is_prime?
=> true

The turnaround time on solving is almost instantaneous for this
