The next session is on January 27th

Hi,

We are planning to meet at 4:30 on the 27th at the Central Square Library. This will be the last session at the library for the foreseeable future, as the library needs our usual meeting room for temporary offices while the main Cambridge Library is under renovations. We are unsure how long this will last. I will keep you posted on the updates on this status.

The plan in the meantime is to meet via Skype. I cannot have a session on the night of February 3rd as I am going to be attending the Boston Ruby Group's monthly Hackfest -- I'll have details on the Hackfest tomorrow night -- so the next session after the one on the 27th will be on February 10th. We will have to meet later in the evening.

I posted the code on the Heroku garden cpe application. All of the regular attendess of the classes should have received an invitation to that application. Please let me know if you did not. The 2 programs, summary_statistics.rb and rubyrx2.rb, are in app/models. The code has gone through still more revisions, and is now 4 times faster (15 seconds instead of almost 60 to take 12,000 demographics records and produce a summary table). There are database tables as well, and some dummy records in the demographics tables (dms).

By the way, if I haven't mentioned before, CPE stands for Clinical Programming Engine.

The focus of the Jan. 27th meeting will be more of the RubyRx framework, including the SummaryStatistics class, and more on ActiveRecord.

See you tomorrow night.

Glenn
