Ruby blocks
@endtoendpaper
Like JavaScript anonymous undefined functions

With the yield statement

def test
   puts "You are in the method"
   yield
   puts "You are again back to the method"
   yield
end
test {puts "You are in the block"}


def test
   yield 5
   puts "You are in the method test"
   yield 100
end
test {|i| puts "You are in the block #{i}"}

With each on array

array.each do |element|
  puts element
end

Reduce
The above functions/methods take in an array, multiply all the elements together, then return the result. The main idea behind reduce is taking a bunch of things and reducing them down to a single value.

# Ruby
def getProduct(array)
  array.reduce do |accumulator, element|
    accumulator * element
  end
end 



// JavaScript
const getProduct = array => {
  return array.reduce((accumulator, element) => {
    return accumulator * element
  })
}


Filter/Select
The main idea behind filter / select is passing each element to a block; if the element makes the block truthy, the element is added to a new array.

# Ruby
def getOddNums(array)
  array.select { |element| element % 2 != 0 }
end 



// JavaScript
const getOddNums = array => {
  return array.filter((element) => {
    return element % 2 !== 0
  })
}

Map 
array = ["11", "21", "5"]

array.map { |str| str.to_i }
# [11, 21, 5]

hash = { bacon: "protein", apple: "fruit" }

hash.map { |k,v| [k, v.to_sym] }.to_h
# {:bacon=>:protein, :apple=>:fruit}

Fiber Connector Types
@endtoendpaper
fiber-connector-types.png 497 KB
1. ST connectors: These connectors are the most common type of commercial fiber optic connector. These connectors utilize an exposed plastic tube housing the optical fiber.

2. SC-Connector: SC is short for Subscriber Connect is one of the most frequently used connectors. Used in fiber-optic networking, it has caps to prevent laser light reaching eyes.

3. FC connector: It is similar to ST connectors, these fiber optic connector's screws into their mating jacks. 

4. LC cables: latch and release into their jacks in a manner similar to Ethernet connectors. Smaller in form than SC connectors, their durability is not compromised, nor is cost increased. Instead of snapping or thermo forming the connector to the cable, it is glued. This makes it a popular connector for field use.

Straight Through vs Crossover Cables
@endtoendpaper
Straight through is the most common type and is used to connect computers to hubs or switches. They are most likely what you will find when you go to your local computer store and buy a patch cable. 

Crossover Ethernet cable is more commonly used to connect a computer to a computer and may be a little harder to find since they aren’t used nearly as much as straight through Ethernet cable.
