Hi, I''m somewhat of a Rails newbie and am trying to understand how to formulate n-way (3 or 4 way) joins in Rails (where the join tables contain extra data as well.) Let me give you my basic entities: foos id - pk name - unique bars id - pk name - unique bazs id - pk name - unique frozs id - pk name - unique then i have two separate join tables: foos_bars_bazs - 3 way join

Hey, i found some n-way threads on the list, but I think they don`t solve my case, or I didn`t understand how all of it works. I''m new to Rails, so be pacient. :) I''ll use an example of movie catalog, I''m realing doing a kind of movie catalog, for laerning rails, and I did this: Models: Movie, Actor, Director, Writer, Country, Language The Movie model HABTM Actor,

It has not classes, the basic data structure is a struct, yet even those are only used to pass messages. It is using the Actor-Oriented model, not Object-Oriented. I have been creating it to deal

I know one of R's advantages is it's ability to index, eliminating the need for control loops to select relevant data, so I thought this problem would be easy. I can't crack it. I have looked through past postings, but nothing seems to match this problem I have a data set with one column of actors and one column of acts. I need a list that will give me a pair of actors in each row,

Thanks, first, to everyone who''s asked and answered questions on this list, and to the creators of RSpec - it is all very helpful. I''ve searched the mailing list, and had a couple 2hr googling sessions that didn''t help me find an answer. I''ve run into a problem getting my first non-trivial view spec to run. I get an error when trying to generate a link_to()

I have a model layer containing Movie, Person, Role, and RoleType, making it possible to express facts such as "Clint Easterbunny is director of the movie Gran Milano". The relevant model and associations look like this class Movie < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :roles, :include => :role_type, :dependent => :destroy has_many :participants, :through => :roles, :source

Hello, I am quite new to Rails and i was wondering if i could get some help to populate a join table? I got (for example) a table called films, a table called acteurs and a join table called acteurs_films. I have specified the HABTM relationship and I manage to do it through the console by doing: acteur=Acteur.new acteur.name="blabla" acteur.films << film acteur.save and

Dear LLVM community, I am affiliated with the design and development of the Pony<http:/www.ponylang.org> programming language, which was recently published and has since been discussed on hacker news<https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9482483>, reddit [1]<http://www.reddit.com/r/ponylang>

I saw this was mentioned briefly last year, but there seemed to be some confusion as to what coroutines entailed and the thread died out. This technique has an unfortunate number of names, but it does get a lot of use, including popular languages like Ruby. I'm currently working on a programming language called Minnow (http://www.minnow-lang.org). It's an actor-based language, where

Is it possible to create / save a new record from a controller other than the one I specified when I created the scaffolding? My situation is that I have two tables. Emrecs is the parent. Actors is the child and has a foreign key named emrec_id that references emrec.id. I scaffolded both, creating controllers and views for each. My app collects info from the user to fill in the two tables,

Hey all, I'm looking for a plotting method for two-mode networks. Having a n x m matrix where n is the first set of entities/ actors and m representing the second set, I want to colour both sets of actors differently. I tried "plot.network" from the network-package, but I did not succeed. Even the proposed solution from Gabor Grothendiek

Can anyone explain this behavior? Essentially, I've created a short file to be read in via source() that gets some descriptive information on a series of variables in a data frame. For each variable, I do three things: print('last.hc.actors') quantile(last.hc.actors,probs=seq(0,1,0.1),na.rm=T) stem(last.hc.actors) where the variable name is (in this case) last.hc.actors. All that

I ran the same dd tests from KnowYourNFSAlpha-1.pdf and performance is inconsistent and causes the server to become unresponsive. My server freezes every time when I run the following command: dd if=/dev/zero of=garb bs=256k count=64000 I would also like to mount a path like: /volume/some/random/dir # mount host:/gluster/tmp /mnt/test mount: host:/gluster/tmp failed, reason given by server: No

Hi all I didn''t get a response to my first post so I thought I''d try again. is anyone successfully using capistrano to deploy their app from a windows box? I''m trying to deploy a test app to my dreamhost account but all i get is "rake aborted!" with no further information. Can someone please confirm if capistrano even works under windows? many thanks al

Hi dear all, the following code is correct. but I want to use non-numeric x-axis, for example if I replace time <- seq(0,72,6) by month <- c("Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec","Pag") Ofcourse I use factor(month) instead of

All, I''m setting up a deployment script with Capistrano at the moment, and am running into some trouble when it attempts to pull the code down from the SVN server when I run the deploy task. The SVN server runs over https, and the problem seems to be when I get asked whether I want to accept or reject the certificate. I hit ''p'' to accept the certificate permanently,
