README
:warning: :construction: Work in progress - it'll take a long while to translate whole book from Python to Ruby, stay tuned...
## Think Ruby Build
* LaTeX source, code examples, and exercise solutions
* Based on **Think Python, 2nd edition, by Allen Downey** which can be downloaded in PDF from [Green Tea Press](https://greenteapress.com/wp/think-python-2e/) or bought in paper and other formats from [O'Reilly Media](http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920045267.do).
* Stopped LaTeX version at Files chapter (Preface and chapter 4 still not converted, plus there are pending todos) - the [sep2018_latex_version](https://github.com/learnbyexample/ThinkRubyBuild/releases/tag/sep2018_latex_version) tag marks this point
* Going forward, translation would be based on markdown source
* For contributing guidelines, see https://github.com/learnbyexample/ThinkRubyBuild/issues/1### Table of Contents

## Motivation
* An attempt to translate the wonderful Think Python to Think Ruby
* Help me learn and understand Ruby better
* Forced to learn LaTeX is a bonus
## Build instructions
* To build the book from LaTeX source you will need a LaTeX installation
* TeX Live distribution is recommended with the following packages:
* texlive-latex-base
* texlive-latex-extra
* texlive-fonts-recommended
