My Rubygem download hit 26 in half an hour..is it accurate?

Question

pocketm - my ruby gem hit a download of 26 in half an hour at rubygems.com

Answer 1

depends on what you do in it.
for something to be a good practise, you must be doing new things in it. not repeating what you do daily.
do something out of your comfort zone ( solutions to problems you never did before) you will learn new things, if you have not done it before.

below is a link to problems. complete it with ruby then check the other collection of resources try to complete them all. should be good practise.
