In software development, even the simplest tasks can reveal profound lessons. I recently tackled an interesting Ruby problem: cleaning an array by removing substrings found in other elements. While it sounds straightforward, the solution taught me the power of leveraging Ruby’s enumerable methods like reject and any?. In my latest article, I dive into this challenge, share an elegant solution, and explore why focusing on these ‘small and little things’ can make a big difference in our code. Check it out and let me know your thoughts!
