After a little over a month of an immersive introduction to Ruby, I undertook my first Project. Starting from a blank sheet and having to take an idea for conception to completion was a challenge. Creating my first CLI turned out to be a process of break, then fix and repeat in a manner that was daunting, frustrating and exciting all at the same time.
Computers have always fascinated me. The ability of an inanimate object to capture, sort, store and share information at volume and speeds far greater than the human brain, the dawn of the digital revolution and the capabilities yet to be realized in computing drove me to seek a career in this field.
