I have a few paper books (Learn to Program and Ruby On Rails 2nd Edition) and a lot of ebooks and a few video tutorials, but I am looking for the cream of the crop. Thanks!
With great difficulty, to be honest. A lot of the modules I looked at did not have great documentation. Even the docs for built-in/standard libraries was not very accessible to me, as a newcomer.
I think there's a bit of an over-reliance on in-code documentation. It's not a substitute for good overviews, tutorials, and examples.
