From: thunk on 5 Apr 2010 13:31 Robert, thunk is no guru but perhaps some of the "intuitive" excitement of things that could be done with this comes from the fact that the Ru'ids are distributable. This is understood in his primitive way from years of DOS based multi-layererd but pre-webland things of a somewhat similar nature without a depth of web-era specific do- thingings that cannot be all that different. The concept of an "Expert session" using the same central class as the run-time ru'ids and all kinds of dynamic mischief seems - ahh , put that ego down boy - "interesting" thunktocktor
From: thunk on 5 Apr 2010 14:13 ahhhh, The point about "satz" could have been lost, so sorry. Let's say this super succinctly: satz are just simple "hashes" satz follow simple conventions satz hang out in methods in an array with their siblings satz are understandable by computers - satz make for much more interesting output than the report-writers written by thunk in circa 1982 - (for mcGraw-hill) AS they can be turned into Techlish or TechDeutsch or you name it - the valuable stuff are symbols and those symbols are keys to the a yet unexplored land (for the author anyway).... and the author looked up tuples a couple of times now and they don't make sense to him. and since this works, and since is silly simple, and since he is seeing what he calls "worksheets" which elbow past "reports" and consider themselves to be of another nature than reports - reports have been done - oh wow, but the author could really write a book on that. not to over-advertise on these satz! no. they just are making the worksheets do things the author never thought he could do before. try turning a bunch of rdms stuff into readable sentences?!? has MS found a way to do that? then its not the MS the author knew. thunktocktor

I believe explaining this single thing makes it much simpler. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Please do not flagellate me. http://dictionary.reverso.net/german-english/Satz Essentially, a sentence, or a clause. Something similar to that. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

That correct but there's a second meaning, although much less frequently used. We Germans may say: "Das ist ein Satz Buchstaben" and aren't talking about sentences. The translated sentence is: "That's a set of letters". I think that meaning is more accurate here. Marvin -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. |
