It''s good if you want to do more than the Rails book shows you. A lot of it is 1.1 stuff. Julian. On 16/03/2006, at 9:50 AM, Sean Hussey wrote:> Subject says it all.

Anybody have the Pragmatic cookbook and the O''Reilly cookbook and willing to do a comparison? (Do really need two cookbooks?)

It''s well written, and it covers a huge range of topics [2]. I haven''t tried the Rough Cuts program, so can''t comment on that, but I''m definitely looking forward to the print edition. Ruby puts the ''fun'' in programming, the Ruby Cookbook puts the ''fu'' in fun :) [1] http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/182417 [2] http://www.crummy.com/writing/RubyCookbook/#outline> Sean > _______________________________________________ > Rails mailing list > Rails@lists.rubyonrails.org > http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails >-- Bill Guindon (aka aGorilla) The best answer to most questions is "it depends".
Thanks for the links Bill but the OP was asking about the RAILS cookbook. Any info on that? I can''t seem to find the table of contents on the O''Reilly site.
