Alright, so I apologize if this meanders a bit: I am very new to Ruby in general (I've self taught and studied up, but don't have much experience at all). What I'm trying to make is proof-of-concept web app that will take user input from a form, put it into a format usable by OpenRules (something with which I have even less experience), execute it, and display the output. I realize this sounds convoluted (which is why I'm thoroughly confused), but I need to figure out how to make this work. The way I see it, it shouldn't be difficult to acquire a record from the user and put it into a friendly format (.xls, I believe), but even ignoring my unfamiliarity with OpenRules, I'm not sure how to go about executing the rules (which seem to be tied to Java), or how to get the result back. Sorry for all the confusion! I'm on my first internship at an IT firm, and this was just "assigned" to me. I greatly appreciate any insight/advice/examples/etcetera that anyone has to offer!
