    @ryansobol Rubocop is fine, but rspec is the one that's failing...
    @ryansobol
    1) OrangeTree#fruit returns the value of @fruit
    Failure/Error: expect(orange_tree.fruit).to eq(50)
    NoMethodError:
    undefined method `fruit' for #<OrangeTree:0x007fab61ace810 @fruit=50>
     # ./spec/class7/exercise2_spec.rb:14:in `block (3 levels) in <top (required)>'

    If you are ever in Los Angeles, go to UCLA and look at the first computer that ever sent a message over the internet. I think the message was sent to a university in the Bay area, maybe Berkley. And the message was one word.

    Found this last night - could be helpful for supplemental learning. It pulls in resources from all over the web to learn Ruby programming and also web dev w/ Ruby on Rails. http://www.theodinproject.com/ruby-programming

    hi class- if anyone's around, just wondering if there are any tips for Class 8, ex 3 homework? I'm stuck on where to assign the block_param to 'lunch'.
    Derek Maffett
    @DerekMaffett
    Let me take a look at the assignment really quick
    Okay, so you're trying to figure out how to define a method which calls a block with a parameter?
    Rachel Lanman
    @RSR312-206
    right, I'm already calling the block in my method, but not sure how to then call the same block, but now with a parameter
    Derek Maffett
    @DerekMaffett
    You're using yield, right?
    Rachel Lanman
    @RSR312-206
    i'm using block.call
    Derek Maffett
    @DerekMaffett
    Oh, okay. I usually use #call on procs, but I guess that works too
    Rachel Lanman
    @RSR312-206
    ah ok
    Derek Maffett
    @DerekMaffett
    No big deal, I just looked it up, and it works the same way
    Rachel Lanman
    @RSR312-206
    i tried yield on some earlier exercises, and I thought rubocop may have taken issue, but I cant remember
    Derek Maffett
    @DerekMaffett
    I don't think rubocop dislikes yield, but I could be wrong. It might also have to do with whether you reference the block being passed in as a parameter or just leave no reference to it in the method definition
    Either way, you're calling a block of code to be run.
    How would you normally pass a parameter to a block of code being run (you do it all the time with normal methods)?
    Rachel Lanman
    @RSR312-206
    right
    wouldn't the parameter be within the method like this: method(parameter) ?
    Katie Kim
    @kayeon
    @/all Cactus tomorrow! happy hour ends @ 6pm tho. will be workin' on homework til about 5ish or so. who's all in? (so far, Noah, Stephanie, Zac, Ryan, Jane, Me) Dave? Patrick? Rachel? Tyler? Kim? Derek? etc etc? :) I mean... @ryansobol - can we just grab a 6pack and meet on 2nd floor?? There's always great drinkin' places on the Hill too...
    Rachel Lanman
    @RSR312-206
    I work till 5, and will then probably need to finish up some homework, so @kayeon I'll text you when I'm done around 7 and see if the group is still there
    Derek Maffett
    @DerekMaffett
    You can define a regular method like that. Importantly, though, when you call a method, you pass in parameters that way.
